Ready for Another Trip to New Hampshire
The fourth Union door to door (or as we refer to it, Labor to Labor walk) campaign for me will be sat. Oct. 11. This one is sponsored by the IBEW. I went twice on walks sponsored by the Mass AFL-CIO and once on one run by the NH AFL-CIO.

What this entails is listed union members having personal contact with one or more union workers, trained to explain why Barack Obama is the candidate of the working class. Sometimes, it's a short discussion, because they already know what's at stake. Other times, they are too brainwashed by racism or fox news to attempt to convince. Our records show that that group is running between 14% to 21%. We are locating a small majority for Obama, with about 33% still unconvinced. Our mission is to convince them and this latest economic crisis is assisting us in being able to issues rather than bull shit.

New Hampshire is the only New England state in doubt (Maine will be OK) and Jean Shaheen winning the Senate seat is also vitally important to our cause. she actually has coattails that are helping Obama in the Granite State.

Well anyways, that's my schedule, and we must all keep working, especially in the swing states.
