A couple of days ago I received my first robo call of the election, a strange woman's voice telling me I should vote for Amendment 2 on the Georgia ballot: “Shall the Constitution of Georgia be amended so as to authorize community redevelopment and authorize counties, municipalities, and local boards of education to use tax funds for redevelopment purposes and programs?"
Then, yesterday I received my second robo call, and the recorded voice was that of Barack Obama's. Obama was requesting that we vote for Jim Martin, the Democrat running for the Senate against Saxby Chambliss. Obama described the reasons Martin should be elected. There was no dirty mud-slinging, no claims that Saxby Chambliss was un-American or irreligious or a socialist. Just a steady and reasoned call for my vote.
Imagine.
