You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
Seems that the best way to reach voters is the television commercial. No better way to assess a candidate than in person though. Isn't that one of the reasons for Wolf's bus tour?
ReplyDeleteSame 2 students grew up in Fountain Hill, rode the St Lukes hospital elevator going floor to floor seeking out the goodie baskets meant for patients and their caring families. That was dinner!
ReplyDeleteLWV is irrelevant and no woman under 50 listens to their opinion any longer. I can't believe that anybody at all showed up at this waste of time.
ReplyDeleteWho do women under 50 listen to?
DeleteI would be interested in an online debate (I'm younger, so sue me). Where we can interact with a candidate directly, and they don't have to put on a tie (or pants!). Win win.

ReplyDeleteDONT FORGET TO VOTE!
