"Who Will You Be Supporting In This Upcoming November Election?"

The question gets asked over and over again. First if the person is available, then telling them I am a volunteer for Organizing for America and finally asking them who they will be voting for. Some people freely say, others don't. It becomes a pattern. The strong democrats pick up the phone. They want to talk about politics and they are so happy and upbeat as they say 'Obama of course.' The republicans, whether leaning, moderate or strong either seem to never answer the phone or if they do they seem resigned to say 'Romney.' As if they wish they weren't. Others still ask who I am voting for to find out who they should vote for. All I can say there is 'woman you are 78 and if you don't know who you are voting for at this point in your life, I can't help you.' Its so strange making these calls. Some people hang up others prefer not to answer. And when I hear a woman say she is voting for Romney I want to ask her a serious question. "Do you use birth control?" "Do you want your RIGHT to have access to that taken away?" "What if your daughter became pregnant and it was an at risk pregnancy where her and the baby could die. Do you not want her to get an abortion?" These questions bother me. Take my friend for example. She is on birth control. She is the strongest republican ever. Does she want that taken away? I want to ask her. I do wonder what she would say. I don't understand Women for Romney. What is he doing for women? Nothing. Well, I take that back. He is doing something. Taking away what women have a right to. Next he'll try to make it so they can't vote! "Who will you be supporting this upcoming election?" I seem to click republican one too many times. "Thank you for your time, have a nice evening." I finish, when sometimes in reality I want to say something else.
