I've been here since January 2004, and I never remember it truly ever being this biased. The liberals on the forum (Eraserhead, Gabu, Jfern, Boss Tweed, BRTD, EBowed) and others dominate...while the only real Republicans left are mostly more "rinos" (KEmperor, Andrew Berger, Walter Mitty, ect). With the exception of people like myself, Inks, Fezzy and Rin-Chan...there aren't many conservatives left...making the forum exceptionally biased to where you can't even have a logical poll.

With Keystone Phil gone...NixonNow gone...as well as others....you begin to wonder if the forum has run it's race...especially for the right.

Firstly, we can't help dominating. This is a public forum and it can't be considered "biased". Whoever wants to use it uses it. Wink

Secondly, if you want more conservatives on here, why not recruit some of your friends or something?

Lastly, you should never look to ANY forums for accurate polling. There is nothing scientific about internet polling. Internet polls are done only for our personal amusement.

Run its race and has chaning political landscape are very different things Naso.....very different things.

This is also true. There are less Republicans in existence (in general) thanks to Bush's failed second term and that has been reflected here to some extent.

I'm also assuming Naso's main issue is with the lack of social conservatives since there are plenty of economic conservatives on here.

Well maybe that is because many of them live in rural areas and don't fully grasp the concept of the "internets" yet. Food for thought.

I think that might be it. I am a social conservative and stress social conservative values while the few active Republican posters here are more economic conservatives. I care more about the morals of society than Washington spending...even though spending has been crazy under this President.

What is PM score anyway Naso? (Just curious.)

Personally, I don't care what political viewpoint people at this forum post from as long as they analyze things evenly and don't do too much cheerleading (which gets really annoying after a while).

^^^

Hey... it's a social conservative!

Right on Reagan as expected.
