roasty Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Oh god, I just took a gander at AnnCoulter.com forums to see how well they took it. And I glimpsed a part of humanity that made me deeply sad. Watching Obama get reelected would have been like the OJ Simpson trial when he got away with murder!

Guest abusivegeorge Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Today, I made calls for Obama from 9:30am to 7:30pm. Much of the day was filled with hang-ups, personal insults, being cursed at and a fair share of frustration, annoyance and hostility, directed at me (I will spare you the details), as I willingly donated my time. The whole time, I was respectful and never once argued or tried to persuade or change opinions. All of it was well worth it. I must have drank 20-30 cups of coffee to stay focused in my belief that our president was worth the sweat, effort and emotion to re-elect. At times, I questioned if I was making a difference, as many people clearly had been called by other volunteers, numerous times. However, at the end of the day with 20 minutes left, one voter I called hadn't voted and I'm positive that I was the deciding factor in her going out to the polls. Even if all of it resulted in one vote that I helped to count, I have no doubt that that vote was valuable and deserving of a full day's worth of hard work. What's your job dude? Also, good work I can't imagine what it's like having to do that, I can't imagine the abuse you must get for what is essentially a "cold-call" and I must admit this would be the only time I would appreciate someone calling me at home to influence my life. It's the only time I would listen to what someone actually has to say to me, otherwise, if you were to be selling me double glazing I'd hunt you down and burn your house to the floor. I guess that makes me slightly pro-Romney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't hunt down the people calling you, hunt down their bosses. They're the real shits. As for Obama - four more years of nominally left-wing people excusing war crimes, I suppose.

J3FF3R00 Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 What's your job dude? I'm a struggling freelance videographer. I voted early because I thought I had a job today (and yesterday), but it got pushed, so I had the day free. I was very depressed to miss out on paid work, but I was able to commit a day to a cause I believed in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awepittance Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 is it ok now to tell the Obama supporters to take the gloves off and be hard on the guy if he isn't using his final term wisely? No logical reason to carry water at this point, especially if you believe Obama is a good man with his heart in the right place. No major social changes have happened without pressure from the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

triachus Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Just went to the Fox News website for a laugh and read that Obama's victory had something to do with media bias. Fox. Accusing the media. Of bias. Also, congrats America! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest theSun Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 i hate both parties and don't agree with many things obama has done. still, he's romney is objectively worse in every category of everything, so at least it's not him. i'm interested to see what obama does with his 2nd term, thought he was a bit of a pussy the first time around.

o00o Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Inside the Secret World of Data Crunchers Who Helped Obama Win “We analyzed very early that the problem in Democratic politics was you had databases all over the place,” said one of the officials. “None of them talked to each other.” So over the first 18 months, the campaign started over, creating a single massive system that could merge the information collected from pollsters, fundraisers, field workers and consumer databases as well as social-media and mobile contacts with the main Democratic voter files in the swing states. The new megafile didn’t just tell the campaign how to find voters and get their attention; it also allowed the number crunchers to run tests predicting which types of people would be persuaded by certain kinds of appeals. Call lists in field offices, for instance, didn’t just list names and numbers; they also ranked names in order of their persuadability, with the campaign’s most important priorities first. About 75% of the determining factors were basics like age, sex, race, neighborhood and voting record. Consumer data about voters helped round out the picture. “We could [predict] people who were going to give online. We could model people who were going to give through mail. We could model volunteers,” said one of the senior advisers about the predictive profiles built by the data. “In the end, modeling became something way bigger for us in ’12 than in ’08 because it made our time more efficient.” http://swampland.time.com/2012/11/07/inside-the-secret-world-of-quants-and-data-crunchers-who-helped-obama-win/print/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
