It's not so much that I prefer to be hated but rather that I don't care what people who aren't in my camp (Democrat/Obama) think of me, especially when they are just people on an internet message board.
Therefore, if you don't care what other people think, then why are you here? What is the point of debating anything at all when you have no intention of paying attention to other people's viewpoints, and you know that your behavior turns other people away from your own viewpoints?
I have yet to meet someone renounce the Democratic party or Obama because of me.
I like maps and election analysis. I've contributed a lot of maps and done much discussion of election anomalies. My extreme partisanship and conduct this time comes largely from the absolutely disgusting way Hillary has waged her campaign by the way, and the newfound love for her among Republicans.
