No, I did not get an answer. I got responses that were not about One Demand, but were instead about what CW or whoever was responding needed One Demand to be to fit the argument they wanted to make.

You've received a multitude of answers from commenters and the author regarding your solicitation that are easily searchable. The issue has been beat to death on this blog ad nauseam, and the answers are archived herein and aren't going anywhere. Read them until they sink in, please, because they're not likely to change just because you changed the title of your failed venture.

Of course, you would characterize me as a nuisance because the problem I am trying to solve includes providing another option for citizens that do not buy the Big Money Democrat bullshit that the Big Money Democrats have to take Big Money to compete with the Republicans, that they will not be corrupted by the Big Money and that citizens have to settle for not as bad as the Republicans because they have no other options.

You're fooling only yourself if you honestly believe our complaints about your trolling/solicitation have anything whatsoever to do with our fear that your idea will reach the citizenry. Near everyone here has encouraged you to start your own website and blog and yammer away about it... somewhere else.

As far as I know CW has consented to me commenting here.

Trolling/solicitation and commenting on political topics are different things. You have your own website where you are attempting to sell your ideas. You should really start a blog on that website of yours where hopefully no one like you will troll you or attempt to hijack your website until you post to their satisfaction.

No one here owes you a platform or an answer beyond what they've already given that you won't accept... so, yes, at this point it's all about you and your trolling/solicitation.

I did not know that, I just assumed it was oldy-worldy stuff, like the somewhat random spelling. There are examples of writing from the past where the same word is spelled differently by the same writer in the same sentence. I have friends who would not be able to cope with the 18th Century on that basis alone.

And the source is Advertising, not the 18th century.

It's even more fun when writing things out long-hand, which allows you to capitalize letters and randomly assign different styles to words and within words, like writing the words 'Sweet Jesus' in script for effect, followed by 'I've got to stop drinking so much COFFEE' in very tiny block letters.

It tells me that, like another famous authoritarian who-must-not-be-named, Trump is also a frustrated Artist, wanting not only to change the world, but also to Decorate it in his particular way.

Gotta love the spin on the AZ race.. :D

The only "spin" I saw on that race was this typical comment of yours.

PRE-RACE
DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO WIN AZ!!! THAT PROVES THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TOAST!!!!

POST-RACE
DEMOCRATS WERE CLOSE IN AZ!!! THAT PROVES THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP IS TOAST!!!

Nonsense. The spin here is all yours. Every story I saw about the special election in AZ-08 expected a loss but were hoping for a good showing.

I guess it makes the AlwaysTrumpers feel better to lie and live in an alternate reality.

It's like 'god's will'... No matter WHAT happens, it can be spin'ed to be good for Democrats and bad for Republicans..

No, it's not anything like God's will at all; the only spin here is all yours. It's voters going to the polls and then the votes being counted... more like "of the people, by the people, for the people."

Pure Kafka..... :D

There is nothing bizarre, complex, or illogical about the overwhelming majority of political races; the candidate who receives the most votes wins. Whenever you see huge swings of an average of ~20 points in multiple races in one direction or the other, it's notable regardless of which way the pendulum swings... and it does always swing back. :)

I'm guessing (maybe Noam Chomsky could verify) that the capitalization of most all of the nouns in the founder's documents is a legacy of the fact that old English started out as German, and the German's to this day capitalize all nouns.

That doesn't explain Trump's weird usage, but then nothing rational explains Trump's anything.

no means no. you're not entitled to the specific kind of answer you want, because you've made yourself the issue.

one of the risks inherent in non-consensual political speech is that the population may come to regard you as more of a nuisance than the problem you're ostensibly trying to solve.

JL

Excellent title!

Yeah, I noticed the capitalization Trump consistently uses but never really thought anything about it. I certainly had no thought that it was so much like how the founding fathers wrote.

I'm pretty sure Trump doesn't realize that, either.

Hopefully he won't pick up on this and we won't lose our ability to authenticate his tweets. I can't believe I just wrote that last bit.

No Wonder paul ryan Ran away. I'm surprised he is even staying on as Speaker - or maybe he hopes That trump And pence Will get ejected and he will become President.

I like this Random capitalization thiNg. i tHink i'll keep usinG it.

I'd really like to see it end up under 5, just for the talking point aspect of it...

you've received a fecking answer. twice from our host, and many more fecking times from the rest of us. that answer is no, which also means fecking no. no matter whose campaign you attempt to emulate, in this case endless badgering of our host will not turn that no into a yes, it will just make people not fecking like you.

JL

Well there it is, your sister used the "F" word.

~almost famous

I heard there are ~35,000 outstanding votes, and I also heard that the Democratic candidate is winning the "election day vote" 55% to 45%, which... assuming it's true... should cut that 6% lead to around 4%.

Still a Republican victory but a really impressive showing for the Democrat in this deep-red district in AZ and should be the catalyst for at least a couple more Ryan-like "retirements." :)

I think you're right. If so, it means D's are up a net 36 seats, so far.

More AZ results are trickling in. Seems like most people voted in advance, and now I think (?) they're counting today's voting? I dunno, that's just speculation...

-CW

Cute.

I am nothing if not... cute.

And in my opinion it's not only my turn to get a fucking answer- it's long overdue.

It is long overdue that you "clued in" to the fact that you've received your (quoting you) "fucking answer."

And it is also my opinion that your only opinion seems to be that I should not be able to express my opinion.

This is simply a blatant lie on your part, Don. I have posted many opinions that have zero to do with you whatsoever; I have that in common with the author. :)

With 100% of precincts reporting, Steve Stern (D) has defeated Janet Smitelli (R) for a Suffolk County New York assembly seat. This flips a seat that had been GOP since 1978.

40th statehouse flip... I think. :)

Republicans had been cautiously optimistic about prevailing in the 8th Congressional District where President Trump won by 21 percentage points in 2016 and Trent Franks, who resigned last year, had won by 37 points.

So it went from a 37-point victory to less than a 6-point victory.

-CW

Wonder what the spin on AZ-08 will be tomorrow...

GOP: We won! Whew!
Dems: We improved 15 points in a deep red district. November's still looking good!

That's my guess.

-CW

Dunno, but everyone's called it for the Republican, with the margin at 5.8 percent. That's probably small enough that Dems can claim a moral victory, unless there are more votes to be counted and it changes later tonight.

-CW

While I'm waiting, I'm going to catch up on answering some comments.

#FU-IT'S YOUR TURN to STFU

You mean besides the fact that Benedict Donald is a modern-day Benedict Arnold and that he and his appointees, particularly one Michael "Misha" Flynn, will go down in history ever thusly? :)

Sexual misconduct? You mean you don't think it's a perfectly reasonable request to offer multiple females in your employ a $5,000,000 paycheck to be a sexual surrogate and bear you a child? ;)
