Warn Others About Underhanded Robo-calls from GOP

I just received a robo call from the Indiana Republican party. Although they were not claiming to be a harrassing Democrat as described in this article, it WAS automated as I tried to interrupt and it cut off. It was made to sound like a live person with the background noise of other phonebankers for added effect. My interruption included asking the caller if they were "live" or not---then it disconnected.

Click on the headline link to find out about a different kind of dirty robo-calling and be aware:

"What we're talking about is something a bit different. What we're seeing is an apparent coordinated effort from the NRCC -- the House GOP committee -- to place calls that appear to be from the local Democratic candidate and then automatically call the same number back as many as seven or eight times each time the caller hang-ups. If the caller listens to the whole message it goes on to bash the Democratic candidate. But if the caller hangs up prematurely, the computer calls right back. Hang-ups are the achilles heal of robo-calls. So this seems to be an attempt to cover for that weakness by making those who hang up think the Democratic candidate is basically harassing them with phone calls. The GOP wins either way."

Remember, this is illegal!
