85. Yes, you've finally caught on to my cunning plan
Edited on Sat Mar-08-08 08:54 PM by Patsy Stone
to dismiss you over a twenty post, three hour period. :eyes:

I have met you point for point, explained my concerns with the situation, and offered no ad hominems in place of arguments in the process, unlike someone I know.

Obama will win over McCain. Hillary's actions (no matter what number we assign their severity in a thread on a message board) will have an effect in the hands of the Republicans if he is the nominee, but neither you nor I know what that will be. This has already been proven by the examples I listed above, which I took a lot of time to type out, because I was dismissing your opinion.

If you have a crystal ball and know for sure this will have no effect, please look into it and tell me the lottery numbers for next week while you're looking. Tell me how many down ticket and local races will swing because an Independent chooses McCain over Obama due to them.

If you say you believe you are bigger supporter of Obama than others because you choose to think this will have no effect that's your prerogative, and I am free to disagree with your assumption. My disagreement with you on this has no direct correlation to whether or not I support my candidate as much as the next person, but goes to the fact that I am realistic and take nothing for granted.

Was that clear enough for you? Because I have to go out to dinner now (I guess this would be where I'm actually dismissing you) and end this delightful conversation.
