I must have missed some good fights.

All I know is politics isn't on a Domain Name Message Board.

I've been on the streets in Pennsylvania for the last three months after work every day making sure it stayed where it belonged, and it did.

I also got a "must-see website" nod from the state's premier political news source for an attack ad site I made for a state-wide candidate.

And finally when all was said and done, my first budget as councilman is balanced (no tax hikes), giving our staff $2/hour raises (to the going regional rate to stop more people from leaving for other jobs) and cutting garbage service fees by 20%.

The big problem with politics is that not enough people are involved. When more people are involved, and I mean beyond voting, then those in power have to cater to the people to keep their jobs because others are waiting to get in behind them. But we don't create that pressure anymore on many incumbents, and that's a big problem..

So, what kind of political discussion was it? Topical? Or just ad hoc mud slinging?
