What do you think of this tactic?

Should our people try it out?

This January McHenry sat down with his consultant, former Iowa Republican chairman Dee Stewart, and committed to DVD a nearly identical series of messages. 200 of them, in fact, over the course of three sittings and seven hours: One each for his 20 volunteers and the ten counties they would start visiting. Working six-and-a-half days per week for the past seven months, the McHenry campaign has already knocked on some 40,000 doors, DVD player in tow, playing these short messages to potential supporters.

In them McHenry introduces himself, then says: "My good friend is visiting with you today to tell you about my conservative experience, and to discuss with you my plans to bring more good paying jobs to County," before asking for their vote and support and thanking them for their time. By July 20, the McHenry campaign expects they'll have brought these messages to 55,000 doorsteps, in this district with some 50,000 active voters in 38,000 households. Everyone will meet him at least once. Those on the fence will meet him again.
