Don, I've never thought of you this way, so I assume you are being sarcastic?
I myself am very passionate about the upcoming election simply because there is
so much at stake. I've watched in horror over the past 3.5 years as our
government has grown legs of its own and walked all over the people it is
supposed to represent. And I have been disheartened by the fact that the
average American seems so unconcerned that our government is completely out of
control.
There is no need for you to apologize for poking at me whatsoever. Healthy
discussion and debate are what democracy is all about!

You can if you wish, but I don't see why you would. After all, this wouldn't be
.debate if there were no dissenting opinions. If you spoke from your heart,
there is nothing wrong with that. If I have changed your mind (or you, mine)
about any of these issues, there is no shame there, either.
