Do politicians really think that I am impressed by a recorded message telling me why I should vote for them? Or by some starry eyed neophyte who wants me to vote for his/her candidate because he/she is going to end the war (apparently without repercussions), fix the healthcare problems (without affecting taxes), and allow everyone to participate in governing the country (yeah, right)?

Hillary has called me four times this weekend. Barack only once. So I have stopped answering the phone.

Didn't Hillary vote for the war? Or did I misunderstand? She voted for it because it was politically expedient. Is it not fair to assume that she will act against her conscience and for political motivations for as long as she is in office?

But I am getting off topic.
My new system for selecting the candidate I will support on Election Day is a simple tick sheet next to my phone. Whoever annoys me the least has the best chance of getting my vote.

Hillary 4 + three hang-ups after three rings.
Obama   1
McCain 0

Now McCain will have to be handicapped because as a registered Democrat I am not likely to be on his "Let's Pester This One Twice Daily" list. Hillary's attention is fast approaching stalking and I am about to get an Order of Protection against her.

All of this is doubly annoying since I am on the National No-Call List. No one can call me trying to sell, solicit or otherwise talk me into something I neither need nor want EXCEPT POLITICIANS. It is outrageous.

Even Collection Agencies are not allowed to call more than once per week but I have Bill Clinton's wife calling twice daily. Am I alone in this? Is it MY vote they want? Is no one else being approached hourly?

ARGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!
