If you fought against Hillary Clinton after the Democratic convention,

123. Well, many left or were shown the door, but

they'll be back, when the splinter sites they went to turn out to be boring and less busy. DU has always welcomed people back, and I expect most of them to return before long. Some are already here again. Really, even the most ardent anti-Clinton folks will probably promise to be good and be let back in until they make themselves obnoxious enough to get banned again.

Even now, many who have not returned, or who refuse to agree to the TOS by clicking Yes, are lurking here, waiting for an opportunity to drop back in to the conversation. In reality, they are the ones my post addressed. Some are well-known screen names with post counts closing on 100,000 or beyond. The substitute websites don't satisfy, especially after the election, so they'll be back. Most of them, anyhow. Some will show up with new screen names, of course. Some already have, joining others, including even mole screen names from a number of right-wing sites that prey on DUers.

DU is an open website, really. As long as you stay within broad boundaries of comportment, you can poke and prod people pretty freely here. DU is a tolerant place, overall, especially between election years.

So, those are the folks I'm talking to with this thread.
