Any info on that survey Skinner was going to have for us?
He mentioned that around the time of the last fund raiser when the numbers weren't looking too good for him. He said he didn't want to choose sides... the pro-Obama side nor the anti-Obama side and that he'd have a survey for us to fill to help him decide on the course and fate of the DU.

I think it's a couple weeks later than expected but don't have that link handy at the moment to confirm. Maybe I misunderstood.

1. I hope you're not implying that he said all that to illicit more donations. If he said
there will be a survey, so there will be a survey. Give him some more time to put it together.

15. you'd like some things sorted out would you?
yeah, i'll bet
you think reality is reflective of an echo chamber?
good luck with that.

12. Illicit?
Are you sure that's the word you wanted to use? Your sentence doesn't make any sense, if that's the case. You may want to edit your post title so it makes sense.

9. Yes, I've noticed quite a bit of criticism of Obama & Dems, but I just assumed this
Edited on Tue Sep-07-10 05:40 PM by MrsCorleone
was opposition trolling, for the most part. It seems to be going on all over the internets.

My question is, why conduct a survey to determine whether or not this is a forum for democrats? I mean, this place is called democraticunderground.com.

Is there a link to the original discussion on this topic?

Thanks.

14. DemocraticUnderground, not DemocraticPartyUnderground. Some who you want to peg
as trolls, are simply more concerned with Democratic ideals than blindly supporting the Democratic Party, who at this time seem to be resembling Republican-lites rather than toeing what has traditionally been the Democratic perspective.

4. We weren't happy with our first draft of questions
so we've gone back to the drawing board... meanwhile we're waiting on Elad to finish programming the software. Sorry for the delay. I think we will have it ready sometime next week.

11. Quick question
Are you considering having it pinned or sending out a mass message? I'd hate to miss it.

17. Frankly, I think you should just scrap it
There's enough divisiveness around here already, unless you plan on banning people based on the results.
