I think pretty much every FReeper realizes that this is Jim’s forum and that therefore he sets the rules.
But that still leaves the question of what are the rules?
It is almost certain that the Presidential general election will be between Obama and Romney.
Many FReepers who are true-blue conservatives look at that choice and very much prefer for Romney to win rather than Obama. That is just a fact. They are conservative AND they prefer for Romney to win over Obama.
Others despise Romney so much that they are indifferent between the two, or at least they vow that they will not cast a vote for either one. I believe JimRob is in this category.
So what are those who want Romney to beat Obama supposed to do over the next seven months? It is a huge election. There will be many twists and turns. Events, issues, gaffes, polls, debates, etc. Always for the last three Presidential election cycles this place has been very busy. We who want to follow and discuss the election here (just as we have done for over a decade), and who think America will be better off if Obama loses to Romney, need some clear guidance from the top regarding what is or isn’t allowed here.
