I have stopped posting except for the purpose of bashing some GOPers. Even then, this morning, I posted an article about House leadership and suggested that we should do something to avoid that to happen again.

Somehow, this was seen by people as a way to create a climate of fear to push people to vote (as if I had this power).

Frankly, it becomes harder and harder to be an independent thinker and not really belong to a click or another. So, I guess I will continue to lurk.
