[Ed note: PinkoJenn is blogging from the campaign trail in Wisconsin.] Okay, sure, today I missed the Beastie Boys phone banking at my office. But I don’t care … I “organized” myself a car! A saint of a woman gave me her car and a full tank of gas to use for the remainder of [...]
Canvassing in swing areas is an essential part of a sucessful campaign. Every eight doors you knock on yields one vote for your candidate. At least that’s what the Obama campaign told me, so it must be true. When done properly and safely, canvassing can be a fun and rewarding experience. Some tips:

Hi all! I’m in Pennsylvania for the weekend, part to canvass for Obama and part for the Posters for the People expo & book launch. I have flogged it before and will again but Ennis Carter and Design for Social Impact’s Posters for the People: Art of the WPA is now firmly in my filthy pinko [...]
This morning I got an email from our friend Rita in Allentown, PA. Rita was reporting an anti-Obama “push-poll.” In simple terms a “push-poll” is a phone call masquerading as a survey, but actually is meant to deliver various rumors or negative dirt on a candidate.

As you know I’ve been in Wisconsin working for Barack Obama. We have a very exhausting week of special guest appearances in the Milwaukee HQ, most of which I’ve missed. Here are the [...]
Ed Note: Fearless PinkoJenn is still in Wisconsin working feverishly for THE ONE Obama. And folks she NEEDS our snarky McCain phone banking scripts to keep her sane!
I’ve talked to racists, anti-communist Russian immigrants, and devout anti-abortionists. I’ve listened to people rattle off complains while I “promise to report their concerns directly to [...]
Loyal Pinko commenter and Bay Area based political strategist extraordinaire Paul Hogarth spent last week in Wisconsin campaigning for Obama. Wisconsin is shaping up as a real battleground. Al Gore barely carried the state in 2000 by 5,700 votes; in 2004 John Kerry won by 11,000. This year Wisconsin is home to a range of voter [...]
Editors Note: This is the first in a serious of dispatches from brave Pinko readers and contributors who are out campaigning in the days leading up to November 4th. Jenn is in Wisconsin and we love her!
Well everybody, I was supposed to start posting my dispatches from the cool, cheesy, swinging state of Wisconsin last [...]
