    No Roy, I'm not.

    Trying to convince you is like trying to hold the ocean back with a broom. Even if I told you how I thought Obama would do it, you'd have a counter arguement. No matter what arguement I make, you're sure to have a half-assed response or a link to some conservative webpage about how Romney can do it better than Obama.

    See, I'm firmly convinved that the only way you'll admit that Romney is unelectable is if he loses the election. You were the same way in 2008.

    In fact, if I remember correctly, you refused to accept the results of the exit polls that showed that Obama had won Pennsylvania. You were defiant to the very end.

    And even though Romney is not half the man McCain was, I fully expect the same thing out of you this time around.

    I don't know why I bother. You claim to come to this post for fun, but it's a headache to me. I wish Heald would lock this post so you could stop posting your rhetoric. This website is supposed to be about Pokemon, for pete's sake.

    Why do you say that like you're not doing the exact. Same. Thing.

    Roy responded to my post with at least some background info on his case, and he managed to do it without bashing Obama. You, on the other hand, responded with almost nothing and laced your pro-Obama argument with anti-Romney jabs. I'm indifferent on the matter so I don't support either candidate more than the other, but if I had to choose based on the arguments of you two I'd have to go with Roy. You, sir, are entirely too easy to bait and rile up, which makes you prone to arguments and knee-jerk responses based on emotion rather than fact. You can't be a master debater by pretending your opponent is a moron, you have to respect and research the opposing position so you can more effectively counter it.

    In any case, stop getting so angry at Roy's posts. It's very obvious by your responses that you're frustrated, which is precisely what the opposition WANTS in a debate. You want to win the arguments? Stay cool and keep your emotions in check.

    Unfortunately for you, this is how I feel when I read your posts arguing with Roy:



    Please proceed.
