*****McCain robocalls, we're all getting them, let's list the states ******

[NMDemDist2]

Post here if you got the Obama/terrorist call with your state in the subject

and a few :kick: and noms too, lets track this bad boy eh??

[NMDemDist2]

1. southern, rural New Mexico robocall here n/t

[kick-ass-bob]

2. NC - got one last week.

I hung up, but my brother (with his genius) stayed on the line. He thought "the longer I'm on the line, the less people it can get to"

[gateley]

4. Good thinking! nt

[NMDemDist2]

7. I hit the speakerphone button and let hubby listen too n/t

[PA Democrat]

20. That's always been my philosophy as well.

Last election I got a live person push polling for a Republican running for the state senate. I asked the pollster questions about the guy's stance on every single issue I could think of. It was so funny, because he obviously had a manual of the candidate's positions because I could hear him flipping through paged and he would read the response. I kept the guy on the phone for over 15 minutes. :evilgrin:

[barbtries]

34. that's so funny

i don't think there's a way i could have stood to do that, but good on you.

[barbtries]

31. that's an idea -

from now on i'll just leave the phone on the hook and walk away, and check it later on.

[NV Whino]

3. I haven't (yet) but a friend in Ohio got one.

[sweettater]

5. one here

northeastern North Carolina

[GreenPartyVoter]

6. I got that very offensive call here in Maine about 3 hours ago.

[Fuzz]

8. Virginia

[maddezmom]

9. I don't answer the phone if I don't know the number...what area codes are the calls from?

[NMDemDist2]

11. mine showed up "877 Toll Free Svc" n/t

[Cerridwen]

10. No land line here but I'll Kick and Recommend to help you

with tracking.

:kick:

[NMDemDist2]

12. thanks!

:hi:

[Cerridwen]

13. You're welcome. Hopefully others will remember to recommend.

Yep - hint, hint.

:hi:

[NEOhiodemocrat]

14. Just got one this afternoon here in Ohio

it was the one
I am calling on behalf of McCain and the RNC "you need to know that Barack Obama has worked closely with domestic terrorist..."
I hung up not too long after that. Just surprised they didn't say "Barack Hussain Obama" what a disgraceful idiot McCain is.

[NMDemDist2]

15. it was nasty wasn't it?? n/t

[pampango]

61. I got the same call in southwest Ohio this evening. I, too, hung up after the first

sentence, so i don't know how much worse it got after that.

[HelenWheels]

16. Wisconsin

One on Ayers and one on Obama going to Hollywood while McCrypt rushed to DC to solve the financial crisis.

[NMDemDist2]

18. solve the economic crisis ROFL n/t

[54anickel]

56. That was the other one!!! Thanks, I couldn't remember it. n/t

[nolabels]

17. Our phone has caller I.D. and we don't answer unless we know the caller

We let the answering machine answer it but the line always hangs up when they get the machine.

[Riddler]

19. Got it this morning in NC. First inclination was to slam the phone down,

but instead, just sat it on the counter and let them rant, keeping the connection open until they closed it. I figured the longer I kept them on the phone, the less people they could bother with this bullshit.

[Marlana]

21. I got one in SW Missouri

[eleny]

22. K&R - I got one here in Colorado

[EFerrari]

23. Kick

:applause: AZDemDist6!

[NMDemDist2]

33. thanks

:hi:

[EFerrari]

35. Why aren't they calling MI? I thought they had that all set up to steal.

It's too quite.

[MiniMe]

57. They pulled out of Michigan

[EFerrari]

64. I read that but I don't trust it.

And, :spank: me for freeperish "quite" for "quiet". Darn, I hope it's not contagious.

[mlevans]

24. Pennsylvania.

I think it was Tuesday when I came home and found it on the answering machine.

[trof]

25. Neither side is wasting any money here in Alabama.

[wtmusic]

30. Nor in California

I can count the McCain bumperstickers I've seen on one hand

[Neurotica]

26. Got this call in northern Virginia this afternoon

[beac]

27. Has anyone called the number they leave at the end of the message?

202-863-8500

[NMDemDist2]

29. I think it's RNC HQ in DC n/t

[Neurotica]

39. I've tried twice -- can't get a human on the line

[GreenPartyVoter]

44. Not sure but I think the actual call came from 1-800-387-2134 if I am looking

at the right thing on my Caller ID.

[Viking12]

46. 202-863-8500 = no answer for me

[tpsbmam]

59. NC checking in here....got one today and did get through to the RNC...

and actually got a human being. Gave him hell.

[barbtries]

28. mmm....maybe

or probably. i am in NC and have been getting a lot of calls from the RNC, the mccain campaign, mcrory. i don't listen to them though, i never listen to bots and i know the republicans will never change my mind about who's the better candidate in this campaign.

[radfringe]

32. Pennsylvania - also have gotten

the invites to a Palin rally in scranton earlier this week...

[54anickel]

36. Wisconsin, just got the call. Had another a couple of days ago, can't for the

life of me remember what it was about. Just remember laughing it off. Thought of it last night but it's gone again today....menopausal brain farts.

I'll reply if I remember what it was about.

[Lumberman]

37. Wisconsin RNC terrorist call

Just got a RNC robo call using the terrorist bit in Wisconsin.
 Why not call the RNC and blast away at them.  I did.  Try
calling the RNC at 202-863-8500, but don't select option 1 as
it doesn't get answered.  Go to #2 "Politics" and
give them a piece of your mind.  It will tie up their staff
answering the phone and keep them from calling others.

[NMDemDist2]

40. welcome to DU Lumberman!!

:hi:

[beac]

63. You can also push "4" for Finance, "5" Membership, etc....

LOTS of empty mailboxes there. Lets fill them up with our opinions on their vile robocalls.

[NMDemDist2]

38. NM, VA, WI, NC, CO, OH, ME, MO, PA so far n/t

[spanone]

41. they're spending pennies here in tennessee....i'm glad i don't have to watch it

[bullwinkle428]

42. Not the "terrorist" one, but another one here in Iowa - 3 days in a row!

This one basically questioned his patriotism, regarding a "flag-burning amendment"!

Yeah, that subject is really resonating with the electorate as our ECONOMY is burning down to the ground!

[rucky]

43. Ohio - today. n/t

[Viking12]

45. Northeast Wisconsin checking in

[Lifelong Protester]

47. Received both calls in Wisconsin

hung up immediately both times, but like the 'let the clock run out' strategy espoused here. If I get any more, I will do that.

Any word, as I saw in Huff Post, that these may be illegal?

[stubertmcfly]

48. Colorado reporting in

Got this ugly call today at 2:40. Tried to forward it to another line from which I get a wav file delivered but was unable to do so.

Really infuriating.

[Martysbestcatch]

49. Pittsburgh, PA suburb (this afternoon) n/t

[canichelouis]

54. Pittsburgh, inner city today

[liberalMOmama]

50. St. Louis County

[mirror wall]

51. Apparently robocalls are pretty much illeagal in Minnesota.

If you live in MN and get a call, consider reporting it to authorities. For more info see this huffingtonpost article here:

53. nope. not a one. illinois.

nt

[bobthedrummer]

55. As already noted-Wisconsin--I just left making lots of volunteer phone calls from local Democratic

campaign center, people here are completely fed-up with the "terrorist" automated calls--even the usually GOP supporters on the voters lists that we use.

In fact, the blowback against these robocalls is working to Obama's advantage among undecided/usually GOP supporters based on the calls I made tonight from the local phone bank.

[nosillies]

58. We can't even get robocalls here in AR -- we gets no love

But at least we don't have to watch McCain ads much.

[AwakeAtLast]

60. Ahhhh, the untold joys of VOIP

None for me, sorry!

[wildflowergardener]

62. Missouri.
