Just a general thought and not directed towards you Mike. Your comments have genuine value. It may be helpful to understand though that all of the negative strategies that you mention are used effectively by liberal democrats, and thus by all democrats due to the support of their vote. nca gnom and dave in maine all popped in and out earlier with intolerant personal opinion in an effort to support LD, and the board in general finds that acceptable.

I had mentioned previously the califoria vote to overwhelmingly reject gay marriage, but those very same folks in the very same voting booth overwhelmingly support lib representation. Maybe substitute gun control for gay marriage. That leadership and the judges that they appoint for life do not respect the result of the vote, and most citizens generally roll over.
