2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Sadly, over the Hill [View all]NanceGreggs
(27,818 posts)... a serviceable writer - nothing really beyond that.
I realize that you thought posting a link back to 2008 would embarrass me. I hate to disappoint you in that regard, but it doesn't.
You see, I am really not the least bit interested in what gets said on DU these days. (And according to the Alexa stats, fewer and fewer people are interested in what gets said here every day). As a result, I am also not the least bit interested in anyone's opinion of me.
I only read/post here out of a need for laughter - and nothing makes me laugh more than self-declared True Progressives (TM) embracing all of the RW bullshit that now gets posted here, or how quickly they embrace obvious RWers as one of their own.
DU - by Skinner's estimate - consists of 85% BS supporters and 15% HRC supporters - which is probably closer to 90%-10% given how many HRCers have left for other sites, and how many newbies purport to be BSers.
Well, we've all seen the poll numbers - and it's obvious that BS isn't supported by 85%-90% of Democrats. Given those numbers, it is obvious that DU is no longer reflective of Democrats as a whole, as it once was.
So I am no longer interested in what opinions people hold about me here any more than I would be interested in what the opinions of posters on FreeRepublic about me are. It is totally irrelevant to my life.
But, hey, nice try - sorry it didn't work out for you as planned.
