By this time we usually have 10 dem responses aout howw great Obama is doing? Anyone?

You should stop making these types of comments. You are trying to get a rise out of people, which is textbook trolling.

Ok new people, looks like you have met Tweed. No one takes him seriously. You want to be like him, be my guest. But you are not going to be taken seriously. Trolling should not be retaliated with more trolling (yeah, I'm looking at you Mondale 84).

Also I have seen Pepper make similar comments on other threads and they certainly are not appreciated. This is going beyond spiking the football, and actually trash talking the other team after scoring a touchdown (which I don't think this poll is but that's beside the point).

Because it is trolling? Like I said, you can make excuses for why you were trolling, but it indeed is trolling.

Oh and another thing. Pretty unfair for newbies but we tend to excuse what old timers do here. It's just how it is. And no it is not on a partisan basis...you should learn about the saga of jmfcst. Just act more or less like mature individuals and you should be fine.

Just don't see how the first commenter can say something to the effect of : "let the Romney circle jerk commence," and then the 2nd commenter responds : "had this been a good Democrat poll, Dems would be all over it." Yet it's only the 2nd commenter who gets called out for "trolling"?? Uhh, ok.

Tweed is constantly trolling. We already know his MO and treat him accordingly. Why is this so hard to understand?

Look at it this way. People either ignore tweed or laugh at his expense. Do either you or Pepper really want that. Is that the type of poster you would like to be compared to?

You're completely missing what you did. TWEED made a troll comment, and Pepper pointed out his hypocrisy. So in your mind, if someone makes a troll comment, and then someone responds to point out their hypocrisy, that is trolling?

Oh no, Pepper was trolling too. What threads are there where anyone besides bandit or some other troll like Mondale come out and say "where are the republican now". Celebrating is one thing, but inciting people like that is trolling. That is what tweed did and so did Pepper. And of course Pepper has done this before....

Good lord man, why is this your personal crusade? 

People come here to discuss the poll, and they like to discuss it with people from the opposite side of the two-party system.  They just want to interact, thats all.  What's the harm?

They should do it without calling each other out and talking about circle jerks and askIng where the member of [insert party] are in a particular thread. I would also like them to rationally and logically analyze polls but that might be asking for too muh from the band of teenagers here.

I think we all agree with you that these fights are circular. What I don't get, is why call out pepper? You didn't even mention the comment from Tweed that elicited Pepper's response. But according to you, that's excused, cuz he's not a "newbie," (also, IMO, cuz he's a lefty.)

Because that is who he is....
