every primary/caucus season.. Its like everyone just explodes at the other team.. or teams.. you should have seen the crap thrown around when O'Malley was still in.. I know it goes with the territory.. but you would think people would get tired of being so mad all the time.. blood pressures must be right through the roof some days..

I just came back after a nice long break from the politics, a bit before Skinner released the worst offenders back into the mix.

I've tried not to respond to their crap but i've overloaded now and I will not be silent.

I'm sure I'll be banned soon or later. I was gonna leave on my own, but this place has too many good memories to let go just yet.

I don't see this ending with the end of primary season. I feel like the party is broken and there will be no resolution until either progressives drive pragmatics out or leave to start an explicitly progressive party devoid of Clinton-styled moderates.

This primary season has brought out the worst of the finest DUers.

I can't wait for it to end, so that we can coalesce behind a candidate and put this stew of rancor behind us.

It has worn me out.

However, I don't find this place to be any fun anymore even with using the ignore feature. Been here 15 years so I guess I will go back to mostly reading and not participating.
