You missed one I guess
Well. At least one.
You're hilarious.
Yes, one person is exactly the same as a mass movement. The subject got headlines because she was rare.
You were trying to imply that after Obama got the nod there was a mass migration from the Dems to McCain, and that loss was only made up by a massive Left tsunami that had sat out the primaries.
So you didn't read the Wikipedia link either?
Or the poll it referenced? I linked that too
Nope, I said:
Like, it seems the issue is your drastically underestimating how disproportionately moderate party leads represent the very very tiny percentage of Dem voters who are "moderate". The moderates are not the bulk of the party, they never were.
But to be honest, it doesn't seem like you're interested in actual talking about this, you keep trying to turn this into an argument...
So, literally no mass movemnet by "Moderates" trying to screw over the Left.
I don't want to talk about it because it's meaningless.
Recap of "ancient" history:
On 9/11/01 terrorists attacked America...
This made everyone embrace a shitty leader and even questioning them led to social outcasting for years
The facts that 08 matched the first election since 9/11 is too illustrate how fucking huge it was...
But honestly, if I don't block you now, you're going to say something else that is so easy to explain I take the two seconds. You haven't learned anything yet, I doubt you will if I put more time in.
