You can't really think that your prose is so breathtaking that everyone will hunt down all your pearls in an unending search for more of your shit. If you say something that refers to another thread, you must cite it or quote it or just live with the consequences of being unable to communicate.

I responded to your posts. They didn't reference your giant desire to support local candidates - mostly they were just snarky shit covering up the problems of the kind of shallow thinking that leads Democrats to support right wing positions.

This whole thread is not about your little world. If you have nothing to contribute about improving the state of the Democratic party other than continuing to vote for candidates who support right wing policies, then this thread is over your head.

Please show me where the OP suggested that we should vote against local Democrats who vote against right wing policies wherever they come from. See. Your position is indefensible. Your bullshit is showing. (Usually when someone starts dribbling spit and throwing the f word twice in one sentence, his lack of "there" is made evident.)
