Rep. Eric Massa, D-NY, planned to vote for the Obama-Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade anti-global warming energy bill, but then the phone calls started coming into his Capitol office and to his offices back home in New York’s 29th congressional district. And coming. And coming. And coming.

The calls were 19-1 against Obama-Waxman-Market, according to Massa. Chris Bowers, one of the Left’s most intelligent new media observers, thinks conservatives usually win telephone calling contests, but he concedes in this guest post at Think Progress’s Wonk Room about Massa’s experience that 19-1 is quite a margin.
