I've always said that it's up to the people to decide who they want - I am just one vote in one state, who the candidate is is not my decision. It didn't hurt that I like what both candidates bring to the table, even though their strengths are different. As the primaries are nearing their end, I have been more defensive of who our eventual candidate appears to be, though all along I have defended our candidates from attacks that I consider to be unfair.

Go to their Actual HILLARY Form where you can subscribe or post, then a few buttons over is the "TRASH THIS FORUM"....

Poof! No more threads in the Latest or Greatest links ....so sweet.

It is really empowering and reduced my blood pressure by 100 points.

I esp. like all your circles and arrows.

And I know it sounds like I'm being sarcastic, but honestly, I'm not. I've always had trouble doing screen captures and I respect anyone who can do it, and who can then modify it, the way you have.

They would show up on the GP and we'd accidentally click in and be like "oh dear, how do I get out of this place!!"



I never stuck around long enough to see the trash forum button.
