I just activated DU's auto-trash feature for the very second time!

The first time, when I listed the words "poll says" it didn't actually save me from too many annoying threads about poll results.

Well, sigh.

Can't win 'em all.

Let's see what listing the words "dems need to" saves me from. If anything.

sempiternally hopefully,
Bright

so both would have to be in the title in that exact order.

Do you have an example of a thread that you want to hide?

I find that it works well, but I sometimes need to trash more than one version of the word.

Never read that one without thinking "learn what the Democratic Party stands for" and "go read a book about Democrats, progressivism, liberalism."

Our people are our big weakness. Many don't vote because they lack the conviction that only believing in underlying principles can give. And even for those who do, too many only know they don't like Republicans or are for or against some issue trending now.
