The GA-6 result discredits the "centrists can win-the left can't" narrative.

165. If you aren't trying to drive me off of the board, why do you keep accusing me

of "refighting the primaries"?


You work that phrase in about me as often as possible. And you are fully aware that

A) I have never once refought the primaries-it is ONLY "refighting the primaries" to say "we should have nominated _____ instead of _____". It is not refighting the primaries simply to point out that mistakes were made in the way we ran the fall campaign. Nor is it refighting the primaries simply to say we should fight the next election campaign differently.

B) A person can be banned from DU for "refighting the primaries".


You have also implied that I'm a secret Green Party voter. You have never had any reason to make that implication, since I've never said anything in all my years at DU that comes close to a call for people to vote Green rather than Democratic.

And it's not disrespectful to you to point out that your tactics(endless posting of laughing smilies and the phrase "LOL", rather than any actual response to the points others are making) are not the way a grown-up talks. Adults-other than Trump supporters-treat other adults with respect . When they disagree, they disagree by making a case for a different point of view. For some reason, you believe you are above having to do that-that all you have to do is treat anyone who disagrees with you as if they are so inferior that they are not owed an actual response.

Why do you feel entitled to do that?

What is it that so terrifies you about actually discussing ideas here, rather than acting like everyone else is Charlie Brown and you are Lucy with the football?

No one sees you as the winner in any of the exchanges in which you do that.
