You know, guys, I'm really concerned about ....
.... how bad of a stroke McCain/Palin will have on November 4th when they see how handily we win.

(Had to see just how many ignore lists I'm on....)

8. I'm looking forward to them as well.
But I think they will solidify for most Americans what they already know.

They know that McCain is a one trick pony -- war, terror, trying to "win" an occupation. That's all he's got. They already know Palin is woefully unprepared to step into the Presidency, and the ability to take over the Presidency is the most important quality in a veep even if the person at the top of the ticket is 35 years old. Neither of them have any real ability to handle domestic issues -- and their ideas of how they should be handled range from stupid to downright terrifying. Neither understand the meaning of the word diplomacy -- they seem to think it means bullying.

But just because I think that we will win, it doesn't mean I'm not going to do everything in my power to ensure we do. It's more important than ever.

7. Only once, really.
During the primaries I might have been on some ignore lists, but I think almost anyone could say the same thing. I don't think it was stupidity, but more being a passionate debater.

But I've only been accused of being a "concern troll" or working for the RNC once -- when I was shocked/sickened that in less than 24 hours people came up with a conspiracy theory rivaling the plot of a V.C. Andrews novel. And was told that discussions on the Interwebs couldn't possibly gain the attention of the mainstream media. No, never! (There's a part of me that wonders if the theory's extremely short gestation period wasn't due to "encouragement" in order to make the real truth seem mild when it came out. Oops, bad pun.)

That thread got more views and replies than any I'd ever written. Perhaps that is the lesson, truly -- if people aren't responding to what you're saying, it's a good sign :)

10. i don't know about that-- i think so people ignore me, but life goes on- some
people listen & understand . it's all about communicating-- really connecting. it doesn't always happen. fear is a powerful tool, ask mccain. i don't know what a concern troll is... but if you are a republican you don't belong here, if you are trying to hurt these people . that's not right --- i don't know who makes what decisions i just write what i believe & don't worry about what others think. :):) all you have to worry about is what Jesus(or GOD) would think about what you do. :):):)
