I shall miss your threads, your charts and our votes every night!
Thank you all very much!
I know it's been a labor of love, but a labor nonetheless!
FR has never before been gifted to anything similar.
This has been a real treat and just as enlightening.
Thanks very much again!
XOXOXO

Thank you. I appreciate the thank you and the comments.

I’m sure each of us do, WindFlier, Lonely Bull, and myself.

Take care.

We’ll have to do it again sometime.

I completely agree. The caucus threads have been the most interesting of each day since the day they started. Cruz hired experts at manipulating social media and that may be why when the FR Caucus began it seemed as though people who were supporting Trump were in the extreme minority. It quickly became evident that the numbers were actually fairly even.

The Cruz campaign slowly but steadily alienated many people here. But this would not have been very evident from the threads and activity. Cruz people started becoming outnumbered but their level of enthusiasm and dedication continued to be very strong and the number of threads critical of Trump continued to outnumber pro-Trump threads.

At this point with Trump the presumptive nominee, Cruz people are far outnumbered here, but it will still be difficult to gauge the actual numbers without the Caucus.

Each of you has performed a great service. I believe that you played a very important role in thwarting an organized effort to subvert the Free Republic. Your effort prevented Cruz operatives from using the Free Republic from being used as a tool to divide conservatives here. You may have even saved the community. There still is a small faction who do their best to stir up hate and discontent, but for the most part your efforts and the difficult decisions that have had to be made by the moderators have helped keep this community together. All of us owe you a great deal.
