Dear John McCain,
Oct. 22nd, 2008 05:16 pmOn the last phone call I received from your campaign, here's what I heard: "John Mcain . . .(srnk-skrrshh). . . (garbled talk) . . . Barack Obama (garble) Democrats (silence . . . skrishhh) . . . children . . . (garbled speech) . . . paid for by McCain/Palin . . . (snrksss . . . garble).
I know -- that is a powerful message. In fact, it almost made me switch my vote to you. But seriously, if you're going to pay people to do live robocalls in Minnesota (I know, I know -- it sounds silly, but in our state we have a law that allows robocalls only if they're read live by an actual person rather than pre-recorded), you might want to make sure that: 1) they're calling on land lines rather than cell phones with weak signals so that the calls cut in and out; and 2) you make sure the people reading you're message can actually enunciate and read slow enough that people understand what they're saying.
Just trying to help out, y'know?
