For those of you who've gotten the call from Bob
what happens when you press 3 at the end?

1. I never let him get that far
I hit the erase button. Had I answered it in person, I would have hung up.:evilgrin:

7. I didn't, either
It said something like, "Blah, blah, blah, Hillary--"

And that's as far as I got.

2. It's the history eraser button - don't do it!
Actually mine just went to the machine. I didn't hear anything about pressing any buttons.

You must have answered the call and there were people lined up to talk to you if you pressed 3. That's how these things usually work. The robo-call does the first part and then if you respond, a live person will get your information and log you in as a supporter. Then you get more calls on election day reminding you to vote. It's all part of the GOTV effort.

3. Too bad it was a robocall. I would have loved to tell Bob a few things

Slick, sleazy snake.

I assumed they were calling me because Im a white woman over 50. Hate being profiled that way.

Oh well, I answered a different way, since I wasnt able to talk back. I did it by donating to Obama.

4. I don't think you were being profiled
From what I've gathered, everyone in Texas who has a phone number that has fallen into the hands of the Democratic Party go to hear from ol' Bob.

5. Not me.
But I live in downtown Dallas where most of us are expected to vote Obama.

I certainly plan to.
