At post no. 17, I thought the conversation had run it's natural course. I was quite surprised to see it fire up again and run as long as it has.
My original question "What's wrong with the Democrats" has been largely answered and will add to the information I require in order to cast a well informed vote (or not) later in the year, however, the post now seems to have digressed into other areas, as most posts eventually do, but that's ok.
Since a couple of other interesting posts have taken center field, perhaps one of authors could open a couple of them in a different area where they might be debated at greater length?
