Hey RPFers, I'm now in Charleston SC working the phones (same as Phone from Home, but local) and just heard they opened Phone From Home for SC.

OK Phone From Homers, we can actually win this, but we need to double down on phone from home for SC.

Just be warned in advance, you will encounter a lot of people here who love the entire Ron Paul platform but ONLY won't vote for him because they don't think he can win (v Romney, v Obama). It's discouraging on the phone BUT IT'S OK. These undecideds who love our platform but think RP can't win are the ones we target to canvass. And we have the tools to move those voters. So press on.

PFH for SC and let's flip this state!

SC PFHers this will also be a good thread for PFH war stories and swapping strategies and overcoming objections specific to the SC electorate. (it's a unique place, really)

That sounds like Ron 3rd party.

Tell them about the new CNN poll that mirrors what other polls are showing: Ron is tied with Obama and leads him with independents. Only Mitt and Ron are electable.

I'm in Mississippi and was calling SC today -- amazed at the number of people home -- got a 12.5% response.
We're not convincing -- just gathering the poll data -- sounds like your job is to convince.

It shouldn't be too hard with someone voting Romney and wanting to end the wars LOL Had one of those today.
Thanks for your work! +1

Both the latest CNN and CBS polls show a statistical tie between Obama and Paul.

Here is the CBS poll from last week

http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-57355518-503544/poll-among-gop-hopefuls-romney-fares-best-against-obama/

"Both Romney's lead over Mr. Obama - 47 percent to 45 percent - and Mr. Obama's lead over Paul - 46 percent to 45 percent - are within the survey's three percentage point margin of error."
