I have spent way more time here than I intended, I used to post rarely. I have too much to do to keep going around about the same things. This primary was stupid. I think it was the fact that we had a strong candidate and a weak one, and he did better than expected. I get that people were sure he was going to Obama his way past her, and take it personally when their candidate loses, but it has gotten stupid. People making files on people to stop them from Criticizing. People swarming politicians and activists. Just so ridiculous and just needs to be done. Nobody can win with those tactics. Ever.

Nothing I coukd possibly say would matter to most because it is about their wants and crushed dreams of revolution. They need a scapegoat. I still say that people should fill their ignore lists up from there.
