I have been sorely disappointed in members of my own party who have fired salvos against each other solely because of the candidate they chose.

I have never called Clinton supporters by any other epithet. But I have seen Obamabots and many other derogatory terms lobbed at me and others who share my belief that Obama would be the better president.

I also do not approve of the term "Rethuglicans" or "repugs" because those too are fellow citizens.

Anyone who throws such names arounds shows 1) they are childish, 2) they do not respect our Democracy, which not only allows but REQUIRES us to have differences of opinion, and 3) are stabbing their own party in the heart.

I've been calling undecideds in my precinct, and it's surprising to me how many of them tell me they won't decide until they get in the voting booth. I mean, I've been a procrastinator many times, but usually about unimportant things, not my vote!

I like drawing people out, trying to get them to talk about their thought process, and thought I'd share with you some of what I'm hearing at the other end of these calls. I'm going to advocate for my candidate at the end, but I want to be as fair as I can before I get there:
