I am well aware people are a complete bafflement to me. Please consider that my character defect and not yours when I express stunning dismay at various reactions to incidents. There are some reactions, when weighed against the past, that completely flummox me. I accept that it is my lack and not yours. Thank You.

| 1. I guess I need to look at DU? |
|
There are people I am completely baffled by - the last few weeks have been a whirlwind on DU. I really can't wait till this is over. I for one see deficits in all the candidates.

I hope I'm not one you're disappointed in. And yes, I'm easily baffled, too, by many things and people here. :shrug: PS Not 'here' in this group!

| 11. Gotcha. I really have no bone to pick w/Hil except I can't stand her. |
|
:rofl: Let her do anything but run for prez; she's a lot better than so many rethugs in Congress. I'm trying to get with the big picture.
How about a position where she can be herself? If she was a Supreme Court Justice, do you think she'd be r/w or fair? She is status quo which I'm so sick of, but I also think she's a Dem.

| 5. Now that would be a bafflement right there |
|
I don't get that. And I know lots of folks in here think that way so it isn't personal to you that I say it.

| 8. No, that is something that baffles me |
|
I don't see how anybody can not care who the nominee is. I just don't get it. And I know lots of people don't care, so that's a bafflement to me. Something *I* just don't get about people.

| 13. Some of us don't care because |
|
none of the top 3 have impressed us. For me it's a question of which one is the least annoying -- and that shifts whenever one of them opens his or her mouth. But since the Michigan primary is moot, I don't have to decide anyway; I'll just vote Uncommitted.

I can understand that view.

I think Hillary would be worse than Edwards or Obama. But that doesn't translate into strong passion, especially when *I've been disenfranchised in the primary.* I can't imagine how upsetting it must be to be a Michigan voter who feels incredibly strongly about showing support for a candidate. I don't see any reason to attempt to whip myself into strong feelings just so that I can feel worse on Michigan's non-primary day.

| 16. Yes, that's what I mean |

I can see if you don't think one would do anything significantly different or horribly worse than the other, that you wouldn't have much concern about who won.
