On this thread, to this audience, you have been knocking Gingrich and pushing Romney.

On this thread you merely want us and the world to lay off Romney, and your badgering us to do that is getting tiresome.

Switching to whiny concern troll mode, is only making it worse,

I can’t help your emotional reaction to a simple statement of one’s opinion as to what the political dynamics are at the moment.

Nor can I help that you perceive those observations of what the political dynamics out there are as some kind of emotional pressure upon you to “lay off Romney.”

Is it emotionally threatening to merely discuss the fact that there are Romney supporters out there, and evaluating what’s moving them to support Romney for the purpose of trying to undermine that support in an effect rather than ineffective way? If so, I can’t help that, either.

All that is something that is going on in your own head. I really can’t see why you are framing this as someone out to get you.

And isn’t that a little personally aggrandizing? Really: none of my analysis has anything to do with you or who you are supporting and what you say or do not say about any of the candidates.

It’s just my view of what’s going on out there. If stating that creates too much emotional pressure for some, and makes them feel insecure in their own views, they need to address that, I guess.
