So, I called Repupke Tony Shipley to stop the robocalls...
He's running for state representative. Shipley has been attaching himself to McCain. At early voting he was standing next to a life size cut out. It was funny to see. Anyway, about the robocalls. I've gotten three of them and went to the website. There was a number and I thought it was to his office or something. Well, he actually answered the phone. I explained to him that I was tired of the robocalls and the propaganda getting tossed into my yard. We've gotten a few of those, too.

He tells me that he has nothing to do with that. It's the republican party. I said, 'but you're a part of the republican party'. He says yes, but he doesn't have anything to do with the robocalls. I tell him you can stop the robocalls. They're nothing more than telemarketing calls and bush hates those. He says, well yes, he understands and begins rambling and stuttering like he suddenly lost the power to speak.

I laughed and said 'No wonder the republican party is losing so badly'. With nothing being accomplished I hung up the phone.

1. Get a bunch of other people to call him.
Suggest that they say they had been leaning toward him until they got the robocalls.
