Please post links to success stories of Republican friends or acquaintances converting to Democrats

Being new here, I may have missed stories like that and would like to share them with friends online and in person. Or examples like the LTTE posted this morning from NC:

Some things that sway opinion (e.g., the debates) may be out of one's personal control, but one-on-one contact has possibilities.

I'd like to know how it can happen, especially since FAUX propaganda is rampant in this country.

It could help more people than just myself! Every little bit does help, and I'd like to do my part.

I've come across a handful of stories about Republicans supporting Obama, but none about any Democrats supporting Willard. I don't care what the polls say about this being a close race--that dude Robme is in big trouble.
