They feel that the political forum is just negative when they dont agree !
Then there were those who really believed in Obama, mostly again in my opinion because of his oratory skills, they really believed he was not political and was one of those once in a lifetime guys. I would suppose they dont post because they still hold out hope OR they are simply disappointed.
There was also a group of lifetime Democrats who would support ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING as long as it was from the PARTY. They pop up here anytime something bad happens to a Republican and I call them the "Party folks from People magazine". For them it is all about the party and the country can go to h#@@ in a handbasket as long as the Democrats are in power when it happens.
There were some, and I will compliment VK as one of them, who really studied the issues....felt that Obama was the better candidate and some, like VK still post because he cares about the country FIRST..not power. He also has something of substance to offer on issues that occur.
That is my take as someone who was speaking on here of the radical agenda of President Obama when he was not even the candidate yet and was called racist and that may have been one of the nicest things said.
I, however, would welcome any of these groups to return and point out ONE thing I got wrong...well,the one thing I got wrong was how long it would take...I thought it would take longer than this !

Thank-you Bucco..you did a great job of explaining. The hate Bush syndrome was well and alive last year but like you said there are those who will pull the "d" handle no matter the substance.
Wait till the country goes down the tubes. I can remember nobody admitted they voted for Carter back in the 70's. I wonder how many of the same ilk have ripped off their Obama bumper stickers?
