Please Ignore the Hillary and Obama hate threads.
Seriously, if an issue is not being discussed, then it is almost by definition, "Troll Talk."

No really, I doubt the trolls have a play book telling them who everyone really is. Do you think the freepers, the Republican astroturf employees, the Wurlitzer teams, oil company damage control agents, and the Republican owned advertising agency employees have a list of who is who?

If we just ignore the idiots, then they will squander their owners campaign funds as they argue amongst themselves. As it is, when we respond, we just give them market feed back on what jabs work.

And, please, whenever there is a discussion that has thought or depth, please K & R the thing. I am quite sure the troll tag teams are coordinated enough to automatically give any divisive post 5 recommendations. I imagine that there are plenty of them with 6 browser links connected to 6 different spoofing servers allowing them to give their own stupid nonsense the needed 5 recommendations.

1. Trying to stifle dissent is anti-American but go for it.
No doubt you already hit the alert button if one post offends you delicate sensibilities.

2. Unfortunately they're not all trolls. Some are long time posters.
But your thoughts were good. :)

4. I've tried to warn DUers of this too. I got flamed for it.

I was trying to tell Obama and Hillary (mostly Hillary) supporters to avoid
reacting to trolls. Obama supporters on the whole did that. The Hill attackers
are trolls, but the Hill supporters joined in with trolls to attack, not only
Obama, but also Obama supporters. It's no use, trust me. You can alert the
mods, but more trolls come out of the woodwork.

Look, you were already attacked-accused of pushing the alert button.

However, thanks for caring and being a good person.
