Thank you for your comment!

I am not going to respond further to the off topic political posts as I've

seen several requests to not have this on list.

Sandy,

Your display of social awareness is very refreshing indeed!

Oh, so you must mean they're not white, middle class, straight, married,

religious, PRIVILEGED people who won't notice the damaging effects of an

extremely conservative, punitive, racist, sexist, classist government that

doesn't think twice about stealing from the poor to give to the rich. I find

your racism, classism, homophobia and general cluelessness as to what's really

going on in society extremely offensive and I hope you will heed the requests to

stop posting on this topic.

What I was stating is a fact according to MSNBC, they break down the types

of people attracted to each candidate.

So if you truly have a problem with the breakdown call them.

As I stated in my post it was not my intention to offend anyone. I have not

made another post about the subject since last week, except for this one,

maybe one more I do not remember.

Anyway, you have no idea who I am where I come from or what I have done for

a living in my lifetime or who I run circles with so save your anger for

someone who really deserves it. I am sorry it came across the wrong way.
