I have to just admit that I'm dense. Very often people are ironic on forums and I miss the joke, only to be roundly ridiculed as a doofus. so, if that's the case, okey-doke, I'm used to it.

It makes it much harder to work with 3rd party candidates. Party registration is clearly anti-democratic and seems to be supported by the "hacks" lol Chuck.
