Hey all, I'm Isaac. I would say it's nice to have met you all, but that would be a lie as there are still a few on this team I have yet to even talk to. I know some of you feel the same way about the old democrats that Sam switched over to this team.
Here is the thing, and I hope no one thinks I'm pointing fingers or being rude, but I'd like to address it.
It seems that since the few of us have come over, we are the new "flavor of the week". Some of the other old democrats have mentioned it to me as well. It's great that we are all trying to get to know each other and figure out where everyone stands and find some spies. But, in the process it seems most everyone has doubts about us and while examining them and meeting us to draw a conclusion, old accusations and doubts of then and still now republicans have been placed on the back burner or forgotten about entirely. I actually brought this point up to two original Republicans today and there doesn't really seem to be any reason as to why, it just kind of has been accepted.
Now I know this isn't the case with everyone, but it has crossed the minds of quite a few of us out there. I just want to say that we need to keep old theories and conclusions in mind even with new accusations so that we don't forget about something important later on. I was curious about past arguments that never really seemed resolved, and although I got answers, still don't understand why they are now, non-issues. The theory I heard from one republican earlier was that all that had been discussed and talked about and is old and we are new and different so it's easier to get involved with us.
That's all well and good and we understand the interest. But on the same token we haven't had a chance to even chat with all of you yet and we are trying to decipher what was and wasn't suspicious before we moved over. However getting interest in talking about some of it seems kind of hard because it was already discussed several times. So, just saying to try and give us all a fair chance and help us out as we are now members of your team and all trying to get on the same page.
Please don't think this is an accusation against anyone or Repulicans as a whole, it just what some of us pre-dems have been thinking and feeling. Just wanted to put it out there and let you know, thanks!
