I tried to engage the same people with honest advice about what I think is wrong with their party. No name calling, just polite observations.

Personally, I am sick of negative campaigning and personal attacks on all candidates. It would be nice to see a real debate about ideas between all factions of both parties.

I was banned after 4 posts. I guess the Republicans are going to continue to do well for the foreseeable future. The liberals on that site are not interested in debate. They simply want to rave on about how evil Republicans are ruining the earth. It is their right to do so, but I think it is to their party's detriment.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. It isn't a debate site, really, it's more like an extended therapy session. They're out of touch with the mainstream, dontcha know, proud individualists, noncomformists, and God help any one of them who deviates from the party line. Weird.

Kangaskhan would be more comfortable here at FR, frankly. He/she'd take some heat but would also be defended by conservatives not afraid of ideas. (Also, it's a great place to keep tabs on the ones we're gonna rub out when the Revolution comes, like parsy the toast over there...)

I don't think that's such a good idea...........only one party would show up......the GOP.....the others would be speechless because all they know is attack, criticize, attack, demean, attack, name-calling, attack, doesn't answer the question, and attack.
