hikatz,
I surely appreciate your voice of reason.
Indeed, in this forum the topics should be place where the point is clear and discussion is on point. That would be my hope.
A basic premise of discussion or debate is that it's a weak rebuttal to turn the light on the personal motives of the person you disagree with.
Strong rebuttal is to stay in topic, which in the case of the locked topic would be to get at whether or not there was voter fraud, what chance is there of a case going forward, precedents, etc. Also the character of the candidate is always a fair issue because the underlying question is about the candidate's suitability.
Unfortunately, those in this forum who are extremely loyal to Tiffany, don't seem to have any real rebuttal on point. So their tactic is to drag the topic into the mud by attacking the people trying to discuss the issue. Making it about the character of the messenger.
What we need is for other voices to come in who at capable of discussing the actual issues and just ignore every personal insult. Really it is a sign of having no substance for any reply that would be persuasive and on point.
There's no reason why those of us who have ability to follow a logical thread can't just respond to each other and ignore the person who is essentially just the heckler in the room trying to disrupt before everyone figures out what the shady politician is trying to pull off.
