When Christine O'Donnell won, a lot of concern trolls that were here on the FR bolted, things were too hot, there was no way they were going to be able sit around here and claim we needed to back the GOP, but there are many still here, tell you, no us, that we can't, that we need to settle, our sites are too high. You remember a lot of them, telling us a vote for a 3rd party was a vote for a democrat and so on. These folks weren't from the left, they were and are from the right. And to those that say we can't, I say BS, the founding fathers had their sites set way higher than ours, and look what they did.
BEWARE THE "CONCERN TROLL"
Google "Concern Troll" if you like ...

What about the people that really are on your side but have real concerns.
Should they reword their posts?

Yeah well the problem with this is that people may have valid reservations and disagreements with an idea. Calling everyone who disagrees a “concern troll” sounds like a liberal idea.

One could hardly go to any conservative web site in the run-up to the 2008 election without tripping over veritable mobs of concern trolls.
One of my favorite tactics was to ask them what (as concerned conservatives) they disliked the most about Obama, and then (if they actually answered) try to expand on that point until they got frustrated.
Expect the woodwork to be crawling with them over the next month or so.

I agree with this article, but I’m concerned that it could take the attention away from regular trolls.

No, no need for Witch Hunts, however, being better informed as to what could be taking place is important. Have you noticed the gaping whole around here since Christine broke things wide open? I for one sure have ...
There were an aweful lot of concern trolls on here, I know that now ...

Look for the keyword “unelectable”. It’s a sure sign.

It is a great way to shut down people who don’t agree 100% with you.

Perhaps it might be helpful to name these concern trolls?
