I feel remiss in not posting multiple daily OPs

With my pointed or satirical opinions about the Democratic primary races and my opinions about the candidate I support and her opponents. Since my current website content contract will be finished tomorrow, I will have more time to post. So I've decided to solicit the opinions of other DUers via a poll. I will carefully consider the responses in making my decision. Thanks.

However, unlike many such polls, you can vote only once per screen name.

Keep on keeping on, MM.

Sanity in a pool of irrational mayhem is a good thing.

My best to you.

BTW, I am also half Finnish heritage, so I might also add, Sisu.

The Uff da response is appropriate, though, for those who want to select it.

Many have done so. Others have selected the option that wishes I did not post at all. It's all very interesting. In reality, I've never been a prolific poster of thread starter posts. I probably average one a day over time. Others are far, far more prolific than I am in that regard.

It's nice to have a vocal example of everything the tone deaf establishment is doing wrong.

about the Democratic primaries. However, the Alert button is just below the OP and you can send an alert to the hosts, if you think this post is not about the Democratic primaries, which is what this forum is about.

As for your own posts, I'm not competent to address those, really.

I went with my better nature. I generally like all of your posts and replies, so I'm glad your contract is finishing up.

After all, it is a discussion board. It's no fun when we all agree.
