Sometimes, these guys have a real honest desire to do the right thing but feel like they have to be "careful". But when an outsider strikes a chord, they will go to bat. If you emphasize your similarities, (wife, kid, firearms) and stay off the touchy subject for a time, (like in one conversation) you will turn the tide. A big coup would be to meet him in person (with baby and wife), especially if you went to the "office". If you could pull that off, I would bet money on a swift handling. In fact, you could drop in unannounced, with some small gift, like a box of cookies or something for the office, "to show Helen the workings of government" or whatever, and you win. game over, I betcha. |
