I took out my list from July 24. It has the 17 borderline senators' numbers and Zillow "local for sale" addresses (so staffers think I am a constituent...it works) so I do not have to do that homework again anyway. This time I am going to give McCain and Collins hell (traitors). I have scripts that were provided by a couple of different Dem groups who email me with the any important info as soon as it happens and we are ready to act when called upon.

I envy you having Democratic Senators. That Zillow trick is a great idea! Please add my Sen. Flake to your list. He is definitely borderline.

I had been using the addresses of public libraries in each of the reps' home districts and took a long time. Zillow takes one minute. Calling them takes a lot out of me emotionally since I am very passionate and start to cry half of the time. It is a plus however since it shows how sincere I am and they take me seriously.
