Well, I certainly wasn't trying to suggest you did....can one actually "lay claim" to a certain way of thinking anyway...and if they did, would it matter to anyone?

My initial comment there was not about you...it was about melliedee.

And I was thinking some more about your concern here...isn't the ultimate poll the primary election result? Don't feel so bad.

But I'm not sure that makes me feel much better about the situation!!! If anything, worse...
