    And I quoted it in that post? No? Did you not read your own quote in my post? And I essentially "liked" it by reposting it.

    I'm confused.

    I was making a point about your OP, since my opening response had nothing of your opinion to go by. Why make an OP then 20 minutes later post your opinion in another post. It's like a baiting technique of OPs.

    Just have a take in the OP and don't suck. It's not that hard.

    You literally posted the four worst threads in forum history not two weeks ago for the sole purpose of attention whoring, got defensive about it and then pathologically tried to change the subject to game tickets and your alma mater when posters engaged you. Now you're derailing an adult conversation to drop 20-year old talk radio references.

    pouhe hoo

    stalk much?

    I got defensive? Don't think so. I was stuck in Pittsburgh airport for 7 hours because a TSA idiot lit a radar station on fire. Was reading the D&D's "pathological" interest in threads with race in the title. I'm not the only who made a copy-cat race title thread to make a point. And I live in Boulder so give away my season tickets many, many times. What's up?

    attention whoring in D&D? Is that possible?

    your post has no take, and it sucks!

    GO OWLS!

    Yes and no. She had no chance. This didn't seal the deal because she already had no chance. Maybe it isn't worth her while to go there when she's not going to win anyway. Maybe, since she has to play till the end anyway, she should just be launching the 3-pointers to increase the volatility. I don't really see the point in castigating a politician for being a politician. It's especially ironic to have these moronic comments coming from Abbott's office about how they 'disqualify' her from higher office -- the voters decide who is qualified. I personally take more offense at Abbott's spokesperson telling me what's acceptable than anything Wendy Davis has done, and I don't even like Wendy Davis.

    She should have chastised him at the debate for not standing up when a lady entered the room.

    the guy drove to River Oaks when he lived on the other side of town to go jogging in a neighborhood he did not live in during a Storm and sued and settled for a ridiculous amount of money then spends his career trying to cap lawsuits and push tort reform.

    I am no democrat but it seems like a very legitimate ad and point.

    Love the talking points. You should send your resume in to write for Susan Rice.

    He told the Davis staffers beforehand to do that.

    The Abbot campaign's comments about Davis' supporters with disabilities is nothing short of disgusting.

    Just realized Greg Abbott was the guy who gave the commencement speech at my sister's college graduation back in 2005. The line in OP's article about the tree falling on him brought it back to me. He joked about it and I laughed. All around it was a pretty good speech as far as commencement speeches go IIRC.

    All around awkward rally. It seems like she is getting even less support than all of the other failed democrat candidates of the last 20 years. I'm wondering if she is even going to get the token 40% vote they usually get. She is a joke, she will be a czar in the obama cabinet next year....

    speaking of ads,
    i saw the most disturbing thing today. it was "chasing abbott chulo". I felt like i was in the twilight zone watching a pro abbott ad with the most beautiful mexican novela actor of our generation, eduardo verastegui...no homo!
    wtf republicans? that's playing dirty,:p

    Really no need for that kind of sentiment.

    I hope you are being facetious, but regardless, your post has been reported.

    Isn't having a tree branch fall on you an act of God?
