Just because we are in a heated primary cycle is no excuse. Please get over yourself and let us read posts as they come in and not because of the delusions of grandeur you have of yourselves.

1. Because they're rude and their threads aren't being locked by moderators.
I'd lock those damn threads down so quick... :evilgrin:

2. DU should lock that shit up.
Flamebait gets locked.

Arguments that are just heated get locked.

If you have to kick your own thread 3 times a day to keep it up on the board, it should be locked.

7. Maybe some of us actually want conversation rather than to flame and reflame
I value opinions of all stripes as long as they are coherant and thought through.

But I agree a post that flames a candidate that the OP simply kicks because they can't think of any thing contstructive to say is pretty lame

But then how does one define "Flame"?
