The cynic in me says you sound like a conspiracy theorist.

But yeah, that's cool that this guy is seeing the light. :)

Kind of like the guy in California in charge of some big Obama grass roots organization who switched to supporting Ron Paul back before the primaries. :)

I haven't done a complete analysis; but my understanding is: lose money and generate another way for people to waste their time.

From what I've gathered, it is a real time "blog" where people post things that nobody really cares about.

If he cared about his bank account last year, then he should have voted for the biggest tax cutter, instead of the biggest taxer.

Oh well...nice to hear that he's learning his lesson
