You need a better schtick if you want to trick a few loyal conservatives into flipping over to whatever fringe Party you are promoting today...because misusing phrases such as "treading water" will hardly win you any friends or converts.

Yes, great master, I can see why everyone would absolutely never think of leaving the party. I'm posting on a flippin' forum, expressing my opinion. I'm not here to win friends. And I'm certainly not trolling for any fringe party. And yes, it is treading water - it is resting on the accomplishments of the past without offering a clear plan for the future.

Now you may return to your normal course of being a jerk to anyone who does not fawn in awe at your copying and pasting.

No. You don't understand the correct use of the phrase. It's **not** "treading water" to have accomplishment after accomplishment, achievement after achievement, month after month.

I even posted a non-stop list of factual accomplishments to you in this very thread, above...yet none of this is sinking into your skull.

Whatever. You need a more accurate, more descriptive phrase to explain whatever your complaint of the moment might be if you want anyone to think that you are something more serious than a mere moody crank.
