I’m a member at both FR and WA under the same screenname, and I’m not a Rudy supporter at all (although I will hold my nose and vote for him if he manages to win the nomination). I just like to listen to all sides (and often chime in with my own opinion).
What I find sad is the bickering between essentially like-minded folks, who have in common a compelling desire to keep Hillary and her ilk out of the White House. If the stupid infighting and name calling doesn’t stop, those posters can bear the blame when she wins.
It’s particularly disheartening to listen to the one-issue folks who aren’t going to be happy with any candidate that doesn’t agree with them 100 percent. That’s unrealistic, but they are often the most arrogant and hateful posters. That’s true on both FR and WA.
Perhaps when the primary season is ended we’ll see common sense and unity prevail.
People, in general, need to avoid investing their emotions in a candidate, because that's when logic departs.
Also, I hope my comment didn't seem to imply that WA is for RudyBots only. There are some very fine supporters of other candidates there too. I occasionally read there. They are so anti-some candidates that I don't stay for long, though. I also have to confess that there are some there whose presence I do not miss here at FR--and it has to with posting style, not politics.
I have very, very rarely seen one-issue folks and 100%ers on this website. A good number of 95% and 90%ers, sure. The only one-issue people I can remember offhand were 2nd Amendment supporters and WOT enthusiasts.
Usually those "one-issue", "100%" tags are just canards used to shout down any opposition to some favored candidate with liberal positions.
