If you’re so inclined, why not spend an hour or two this weekend phone-banking for the McCain-Palin campaign?

Simply log on to the McCain campaign site, fill in some info, and they’ll send you a list of folks to call. Ace of Spades has more:

Get the names and numbers from the McCain/Palin website. Call in between loads of laundry. Call while you’re waiting for dinner to be done. Call after you put the tot down for her afternoon nap. Do what I did and call while you’re blogging. I know you guys spend countless hours just sitting in front of your computer. You could use a little of that time to call voters.

Ace also has a sample script:

Hi, I’m _________, a volunteer from McCain for President campaign. We’re interested in talking to you about your vote and the future of our nation.

[simplify talking points]

John McCain is a proven leader.
He has the experience to keep our nation safe.
He knows that keeping taxes low helps stimulate the economy.
He wants you to keep your own money, not use government to “spread the wealth around”.
Please help put John McCain in the White House on November 4th.
Vote John McCain.
Thank you.

A few tips: you don’t have to stick to script. Personalize it for yourself. No one likes to be read to over the phone. Smile (even stand up) while you talk. People will appreciate the enthusiasm.
