I've been a committed lurker for over ten years, just a shy person afraid to join in.

I've been in AR for 30+, my folks moved us here for my dads job when I was 12.
I know what you mean about dems here.
I went to a local Democratic Women's mtg here once, wanting to get involved; it disappointed me to the point of disgust because it just seemed like the southern aristocratic ladies auxiliary group to support 'our team', not about issues or substance or politics as a means of achieving policy that improves more peoples lives... Just 'rah'.

I'm currently trying to make my escape to someplace where I will have a better chance of keeping my teeth.
