I honestly have NO idea. I do know that the folks who post in comments sections on blogs are the most vitriolic people I think I've ever seen, so it's not really a representative sample. There is a vocal minority of Hilary supporters planning to vote McCain, which flummoxes me, since there's a gulf bigger than the Grand Canyon between McCain and Clinton. I don't know what's wrong with those people, but for now, I'm putting it down to sour grapes. I suspect most of them will come around. I put much of it down to the reason all sane folks have a "don't ever read the comments" philosophy virtually everywhere. Trolls! The world is full of so very very very many trolls . . . I mean, never look at the comments on YouTube, for example. Never!! You'll be watching some amuzing otter swimming about or perhaps groovin' to some rockin' ska tune and then you foolishly let your eyes drift downward and it's all "usuxx" and "thisRsoGay" and "gosee mi vid is beetter try hotgirlz3433 iz rulz" and you end up wanting to stab the entire internet with a giant spork to let the stupid run out the bottom. I adore you, Lola!

Does anyone care if I start a new thread, OTT Part Deux?

There being no objections. And no assents, for that matter, I am declaring this here thread closed and the most recent discussion has been copied over to the new thread for continuation if you so wish. Part 2 of the party is over here.
