Just talked my FIL and MIL out of voting for McLame!

Funny thing is, they both can't stand McCain, but the Ayers thing had them worried.

I explained it to them and they were satisfied. I also explained McCain's health cuts and what would have happened if he had had his way with social security ... they were like "what the hell?"

They both watch Fox News I'm afraid to say, and in the reddest of red of Arkansas ... and it's hard for them to admit openly that they like Obama. I told them "no one knows who you're voting for when you close that curtain" ... and "he looks just like you underneath his skin colour" they said "we know, we know, but look at where we live". I finally said, "why don't you show McCain a couple of REAL mavericks on November 4th" ... they laughed and thanked me.

Just trying to help out from Canada!

3. It's important to inform seniors who hang out with other seniors

that McCain's wet dream is privatizing social security and slashing Medicare.

6. If they _really_ can't bring themselves to vote for Obama, point out

Bob Barr (Libertarian), Chuck Baldwin (Constitution), and Ron Paul (Republican write-in) as McCain alternatives. They don't help Obama per se, but they will hurt McCain.
