Reply #105: my two cents and a request

[welshTerrier2]

My two cents:

before reading the text of your post, i thought this was a bad idea ... things seemed to be working pretty well as is and i saw no reason to burden ourselves with more rules and more administration ...

HOWEVER, your post has convinced me that we should keep "campaign" posts in the "campaign" forum ... DU will only get busier as we move closer to the election and GD will suffer if there's too much volume ... i'll go along with your idea ...

one very important point: posts that focus more on policy being expressed by Kerry or Edwards that don't include how that policy will affect the "horserace", should be allowed in GD ... the "campaign" forum should be for posts about the "horserace" or those that explicity focus on campaign strategy ... i think it's important to clarify this distinction ...

my request:

NOW, you still owe me an answer, or better yet a discussion, on my "dem-Green unity" theme (see my thread on this on page 2 of "ask the admins") ... I would greatly appreciate some follow-up on this issue ... i think i can make a strong case for showing more flexibility than the current DU policy permits ...
