I wanted to say hi to everyone. Look forward to discussing the resistance. I'm a transplanted democrat in rural southwest michigan, surrounded by mostly poor people who vote Republican. It is interesting times.

I've been on DU for at least 14-15 years. You'll find the folks here are pretty savvy and supportive.

Interesting times? You said it, buckeyeblue! Welcome
