Mad Dog has long questioned the value of knocking on the doors of voters in his town. Most people fall into one of two categories: 1/ The already convinced, the church choir who need no reminding or encouragement and will vote Democratic no matter whether we knock on their doors or not. 2/ The "undeclared" voter who really does not like having to deal with people on his/her doorstep trying to "sell" him/her a pitch about who to vote for. These people feel violated, intruded upon and get more and more hostile the more you ring their doorbells.
Now, it should be noted exactly how a voter's name gets on the list of nice names to be knocked upon: The computer has identified them as having voted in a Democratic primary, meaning they are either true Blue Democrats or they declared themselves Democratic for purposes of voting in one primary and then, most often, changed back to "undeclared."
It is among the members of this group we often hear, "I'm still doing my research" when we ask the question our Party insists we ask: "Are you planning on supporting Maggie Hassan."
The fact we have to ask this question at all is a problem, as far as Mad Dog is concerned. It transforms this friendly, "I'm just your neighbor urging you to vote on November 8" into a poll, which is asked for the tracking purposes of the Party. The soft sell of, "Gee, I wouldn't tell you what to think or how to vote, but do vote," into a "So, can I count on you?" This is supposed to be followed by the question, "Will you sign this 'Commit to Vote' card which presents the homeowner with a card which might sign away the mortgage and now the canvasser on the door step looks like a salesman, con artist.
How the Democratic Party organization came up with these procedures is beyond Mad Dog, but it makes him question his faith in the Democratic Party higher ups. If anyone can pull off these depradations and make it seem friendly and innocent, it is his partner in canvassing, Olivia Ostrich, but Mad Dog suspect 90% of those who try to get away with this only alienate voters.
What Mad Dog would like to say when a citizen says she is still doing her research on Karoline Leavitt who she might prefer to Chris Papas is to simply read her these Professor Google statements:
Here is the person you would be voting for rather than Papas:
KAROLINE LEAVITT
WHAT SHE STANDS FOR

12. BLACK LIVES MATTER IS A “MAXIST TERRORIST GROUP”
