Winter is Coming. This means the Crock Pot is running, leaves are falling, and mid-term elections are in full swing. This brings us to push polling. Now, those who know The Dude personally know that unless CallerID shows a recognizable name and number, he will let it go to voicemail pretty much every time (due in part to working as a newspaper central operator for two years while in college, if you care). The AKO, however, doesn’t have that trauma in her past, so she will on occasion pick up, if for no other reason than to stop them from calling.
