160. Your FINGER POINTING Is Just So STUPID!

Wed Nov 5, 2014, 04:38 PM

Nov 2014

Absolutely absurd! I worked very, very, hard to GOTV here in FL and actually tapped in to a lot of younger voters, Repukes who said they couldn't stand Rick Scott! I KNOW they didn't vote for him, but I do believe something may have been tampered with down here!

Call it bad loser, whatever... but IT WAS PROVEN that Bush DID NOT win in 2000! And I'm a Liberal and constantly said "we need to vote" no matter what!

I find your comments to be more than offensive. Why don't YOU concentrate a little bit more on THE BLUE DOG Democrats who roll over all the time! Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was am extremely bad choice to head DNC! Not only liberals think this.

In all the years I've been here at DU have I ever put anyone on ignore, probably won't do it, but between you and VanillaRhapsody I'm tired of being attacked!

Was going to go on, but it's useless...
