The #1 reason for the bickering here:

Ok,
First off, please ignore the fact that i've only got like 10 posts. my old username went lame on me (i lost a password, stupid automatic password savers):) and I had to re-register.

I've noticed that everyone is freaking out about the primaries. I say it's OK. Really.

here's why:

this is our first nomination process since the internet came of age. In 1992, when clinton was duking it out with tsongas et al, no one had the internet. or at least very few did. Since then we've had Clinton in 96 and Gore in 00. Who was really going to contest Gore in 2000? Really, now, it's part of the culture of message boards.

IT's the anonymity problem. It happens on every message board to which I post. (6 or 7.)

The solution: Ignore it. Don't get in a huff and "quit DU"....just ignore it and everything will be fine after the nomination. really.

:hi:
