Chumming for Piranhas

Otherwise known as posting a pro-Obama comment in GD or GD-P.

This is DEMOCRATIC Underground, isn't it? Or did I get off on the wrong floor?

1. I thought of something that would be an interesting experiment anyway

It would be interesting to have 2 Political Forums

Political Dicussion Personal and Political Discussion Impersonal

PDP could be devoted strictly to issues with a ground rule being that NO personal invective is allowed period. No comment except those directly related to the subject at hand. People would essentially behave as if every single poster was anonymous to them with no history, no track record, etc.

PDI would be no holds barred where everyone can hurl their favorite insults at each other, accuse each other of being paid posters for either side, accuse each other whatever the favorite perjorative of the day is, etc.

As much as everyone claims to want civil discourse, I wonder which forum would be the most popular and attract the most posters?

2. Obama's forward progress is so damn slow which makes me say...

"I can go slow ahead. Come on down here and chum some of this shit."

Followed of course by,

"You're gonna need a bigger DU"
