Trendy, I did not start this thread trying to be argumentative. If I would have wanted to argue, I would have issued a challenge in my opening remarks. Instead, I merely announced my support in post #1 for a candidate that I personally felt I could relate to. For a variety of reasons, not the least of which, Webb is a veteran who opposed the ill fated and ill advised spring of 2003 invasion of Iraq.
Fact of the matter is, I believe Jim Webb is currently a long-shot, at best. I have supported long-shots in the past. And I am sure I will again in the future. The fact that an announced candidate for POTUS is considered a long-shot 23+ months prior to the election, does not deter me in the least.
The only thing I stated was that I am currently supporting Jim Webb's candidacy and until further notice, he has my (personal) vote. That does not say or even imply that I am trying to be argumentative.
On the other hand, if you would like to make an argument out of my personal support of Jim Webb's candidacy, feel free to do so! In this instance, I am going to take the high road. But feel free to travel the low road, if that is your personal preference.
