Dear Nance Greggs... come back [View all]

DU misses your wit and wisdom.

I know why you left. It almost chased me away too. The anti-Obama trolls and FUDmeisters had taken over DU2.

But Skinner and EarlG have improved DU3... it is much harder to the trolls to get away with it anymore. The spreaders of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) have a harder time getting away with it now.

DU3 is a safe place to be pro-Democrat and pro-Obama again.

And we miss you, Nance.

I know you are still out there.

Not really. And why would you want someone back who quit? n-t Logical Sep 2012 #43

Because Nance contributed a lot here. GoneOffShore Sep 2012 #44

LOL, are you her sister or brother? Maybe quitting was for the best. n-t Logical Sep 2012 #45

I see exactly where you're coming from. GoneOffShore Sep 2012 #46

Wow, that makes no sense. But I assume you know that. Well, maybe you are Nancy, who knows. Logical Sep 2012 #47

I'm sure we could build a brand new world with the shit you've "never heard of". Just sayin'.... Tarheel_Dem Sep 2012 #123

Without unRec it's probably safe for her to come back leftstreet Sep 2012 #126

I'll bet if we took a poll, many DU'ers have "never heard of" you until today. Tarheel_Dem Sep 2012 #129
