Personal attacks are fine, and not discussing op's, instead personally attacking people is fine. I guess this is the new value.

I guess this is what DU is devolving into...great!

So how about people start ignoring the obvious personal attacks and concentrate on the issues raised? Some people's goal in life is to short circuit discussion. And here they succeeded, which is sad.

By the way challenges to party officials was a prediction of mine, and so far we have one indie challenging Issa...(and a dem)

One State challenge

One Senator

Two lower offices.

This is just the ones I know. I am betting more are comming. Oh and some believe Elizabeth Warren should be included in the list, but for many reasons I will not include her strictly in this list.

So please continue the personal abuse... I know you are revealing yourselves for what you are, and not actually interested in the process. Amazing.
