Hey all!
Sorry I haven't been too good at posting or commenting but I am reading all the posts and they always give me a good laugh. So here is a story of my own:
Today I went to Delaware, yes Delaware. I had to be up at 7:30 this morning then drove 2 hours to a town festival in Milford Delaware. I was helping campaign for our one and only Mitt Romney. He had to get 500 signatures to be put on the primary ballot. So I walked around this cute town festival asking all kinds of people if they were republican. The dialogue went a little something like this:
me: "Excuse me, are you a registered republican voter?"
The answers to this question varied:
person: "Yes I am can we please get the democrats out of there?"
Usually with an American flag on their shirt
person: "haha you wash your mouth out little lady for asking me that question"
These people were an old couple that looked like republicans
person: "I am a felon and can't vote" (one of my personal favorites)
All the tattoo folk
person: "Is he that mormon guy? Well I like Perry"
People sitting on their lawn chairs while eating hotdogs and drinking beers
person: "I am a democrat but wished I was republican"
Old grandma's and grandpa's
person: "I am an independent" (otherwise known as I'm not signing anything)
Everything else you could think of
Well I ended up with 21 signature and as a group we had 250 so I felt pretty good about it. And the best news was that along the way I got plenty of business cards to host jewelry parties, entered countless contests (none of which I won), and got to people watch till 5:00 at night.
