this shouldn't be surprising. the "aides" taking these calls primary responsibility is to protect and deflect. i have spoken to no less than 10 different people, some of which were genuinely interested in my concern and some that said they would pass my message to receive a return call w/o taking my name/number.

The point is to make it known that we have numbers and a voice, we are concerned, he works for us, and we are not going away quietly. believe me that he is receiving the same attention from the opponents.

  1. Let's retweet & favorite today's action plan HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE,and HERE, share it on our Facebook walls HERE, and share it via Google+ HERE.
  2. Let's send NJ Gov. Chris Christie today's prefilled, editable tweet in support of that state's poker bill: HERE
  3. Let's send key NJ state senators prefilled poker tweets asking them to ask Gov. Christie to sign that state's poker bill (Speed tip: Hold the CTRL key down while left-clicking the links. They'll open in their own tabs.

  4. If you live in New Jersey, please call Gov. Christie by noon at 609-292-6000 and ask him to sign A2578.

You might as well save your wish, there's a variety of illnesses already heading his way in due time... with or without a veto.
