When you tell people they have gone to the dark side, that is a character judgement - an ad hominem.

The sum of the pieces I quoted said that the left had become more liberal, i.e. more left. These were from polls like Gallup and Pew Research.

As a professional writer, in touch with many other writers, I can assure you that we have been gagged, and we are on the left. So what you are hearing from leftist sources is hardly accurate.

I watched the fiasco with Hillary. The leftist press continually reported how well she was doing. On the day the DNC nominated her, I posted, "Trump will be predident."

I find it ludicrous when Dems won't accept what a particular publication says because it's not on their side. It is well known that certain public figures flipped from the left to the right. There are so many stories of ordinary individuals who flipped. Do you think that libersl publications are going to publish them?

Do you even want to know why that is happening?

Personally, I see no hope for America. Until the electorate is prepared for large doses of personal honesty, nothing can be achieved...
