Voter ID is critical in a primary. We have to know who's out there and how to target them. Blanket ads and sign waving is not nearly as effective as being able to target strong voters.
It is a secret weapon because few expected us to engage in retail politics.
The general science says that without calls candidates get about 30% turnout, with calls about 80% turnout. There are other factors, of course, especially in our case...
But we haven't won any states yet. Even if we get a high turnout, voter fraud has caused RP to not win 1st place in any state. Isn't getting RP supporters and propping them up to RP delegates a more important strategy?

We've got to attack it from both angles. The delegate strategy will fail if bound delegates are forced to vote Romney on the first ballot. So we've got to make sure there's enough of a spread to keep a first ballot victory from occuring. That's why we need people also working retail politics. Everyone has a role in this battle.

The phone strategy is multi-pronged and PfH has run many different campaigns this cycle, including delegate hunting...
PfH has its hiccups/etc, but is a very valuable tool that has helped a lot in the doubling/tripling of votes. Right now it is running a survey, but they change it around often
