This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.

Important notes on articles:

• Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
• Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
• If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

I slipped away last night, bad manners here, I know. by beatgoeson

I'm looking for a moderate, either party, that I have confidence in to stick to campaign promises/pledges, and her example hasn't really inspired that confidence. There's also a feeling that each successive pledge she makes is a desperate attempt to convince the public of her anti-Trump convictions. I think it's too late. I wouldn't be enthused enough to vote for Haley. I would have the same hopeful attitude I had w Trump at first, having never voted for him, but willing to watch his unconventional approach. Other Republicans, even Christie or Hutchinson, in a scenario that would allow that possibility, I'd follow.
Look too closely, and one gets pretty despondent wrt centrist options. I'm with Biden for now, warts and all. Thought Manchin/Romney offered hope, but it was, and still is a pipedream.
