Amarillo Recap
We're exhausted after a long afternoon of canvassing for Obama in Canyon, Texas, near Amarillo. Most of the people weren't home, so we left literature. I had nice visits with several people, including one guy who'd voted for Obama and needed information about how to do the crucial second part of the Texas Two Step--show up for the caucus at 7 p.m. Tuesday night to vote again. This is a very strange setup, but it makes the game fun. It's one thing to lure volunteers from out of state; quite another to coach them in this complicated primary-caucus game.
I experimented with the Nokia N95 and Qik, uploading clips titled Politeness Counts, Lunch Break, Amarillo Streets, Odd Numbers, A McCain Voter, Lotsa Walking, Practicing Politeness, and Canvass Done.
