1237. Most folks have let go of the primaries
but a small chorus has not. Every time anybody issues VALID criticism of the President, and no, he is not god, nor does he walk on water, nor is he perfect, the primaries come gushing out.

I have been told similar things by a very small, at most 30 posters. What makes me laugh is that most people do not even know who I supported in the Primaries... and that is fine... suffice it to say it wasn't Obama, and when I got to vote, it was pretty much over. SO it was a symbolic vote. I am sure that would never cross your mind.

Free clue, it is not Lisa who has been doing this since the primaries ended, and what happened with the primaries (on both parties by the way) should raise a few alarms to those who are students of democracy. In fact, there are a few reforms our system might benefit from, which will not pass because partisans, and chiefly leadership, ON BOTH PARTIES fear losing control of the process.
