How can anyone make an educated decision on a candidate without comparing the records of the candidates?
That’s like the Senate asking their members to vote on the evil immigration bill without it even being written yet yesterday! (Diane wore yellow. Did anyone notice what color Nancy wore? Her usual “virginal white”? :) )
The Fredheads call citing records “bashing”. The only thing they can come up with against Hunter is “he can’t win”.
The only thing I’d caution about comparing records is that we try to avoid 3 things when doing so:
1) posting anything that is sketchy in terms of sources. there is enough contrast not to have to dig up questionable material.
2) Be polite to the Fredheads. Most are polite to us, despite the condescending and irritating “he can’t win” stuff.
3) Fred is a conservative as are most of his supporters. Jimrob does not want viscious flame wars between conservatives on his site.
“How can anyone make an educated decision on a candidate without comparing the records of the candidates?”
I would say they can’t. As a campaign strategy on a conservative forum, I would not be drawing comparisons between (in my eyes) the two most conservative candidates is not productive to a campaign.

No it’s not.

I’ve seen what I’d consider bashing from both Hunter & Thompson supporters. I think it’s counter-productive. Lurkers/voters/undecided have enough time to visit both candidate threads to review records without having to wade through the trash talk between supports from the two most conservative camps IMO.
