Charley, that people here chose to make a mountain over a news story I commented upon but they didn't like hearing about, doesn't mean I am responsible for their behavior. It is their choice how to respond to my starting the thread, not mine.

I still maintain the Florida delegation being seated is both newsworthy and good news for Clinton. If people disagree with it, that's fine. But to say there was never any news reports of the meeting between Dean and FL party leaders--what would you call that? Saying that "Obama would still be ahead" is factually wrong. So, what would you say about the posters who claimed that?

As to your remark that I am "playing" you--perhaps that is how Obama's supporters see it. However, in the political threads in a presidential election year, it is a pretty lame claim to say that starting a new thread based upon a news story of the day is trolling. That can only mean that EVERYONE starting such threads is trolling.

I don't necessarily disagree with that statement, especially as I look down the list of current BS threads about the US horse race.

As I have noted before, the Clinton supporters here aren't terribly vocal or visible in this forum. Why?

I think it is because of the way posters like Ron Davies and Jack the Sailor are behaving. Not everyone cares to be verbally assaulted for expressing their political opinions.

I hope you can see the differences, and that you aren't blinded by political loyalty to your candidate, and your opinion of your candidate.

Because otherwise, you seem like a pretty reasonable guy.
