That's why I never signed up w/any of these outfits. I don't want to receive endless emails/texts, and other nonsense. SWBTATTReg Mar 2025 #1

I completely agree and liberalhistorian Mar 2025 #14

I think our Party has a management problem. Just a guess but I think the folks in control don't want new blood. jalan48 Mar 2025 #20
