So I am making the most selfish request right now and if any of y'all are interested in Virtual Phone Banking for Barack into New Mexico, please contact me. I know who of y'all are supporting Barack... so if you're thinking of pulling a fast one on me, not going to happen.

Thanks y'all

Thanks guys... yeah I never come on here anymore and "shove my political views" down anyone's throats... at least haven't in a while, like months and months.

I think this might be part of the problem. Not sure as I come back sporadically and even then I don't read all the threads despite there being so few; however, if the only time you engage someone is to ask them for something, it seems like you're just using them. People don't like to be used, so they get defensive. *shrug*

Nah, I just don't like her in general. Several reasons why, but mainly due to her calling me some nasty names on here over my lack of "school spirit" (this was several years back).

But with regards to this particular thread... her obsession with the Democratic party has never gone over particularly well with the rest of the board. Most of us are moderates, though some like myself are liberal-leaning, while others are conservative. Very, very few of us are particularly enamored by either major political party. We are politically conscious and politically active, but not usually to the point of working for a party or campaign. Thus, by and large, we don't give a crap about the minutiae. It gets very old to hear someone going on about legislation and caucuses and phone banking and minor races of politicians in San Antonio.
