Sure Newbie, the personalizing in the political discussion was no fun
to read.
You will find that behavior on the board even when discussing AP
matters. Unless you are willing to point out the personalizing when
someone does it, you are going to have to get used to it.
I suggest you simply post the word "personalizing" when someone does
it so perhaps they get the hint to stop.
That being said, its been an Asbury Park problem that the City
operates in a vaccum with no regard to politics and events outside
its borders which affect the City, particularly on the County and
State level.
Asbury's failure to react properly to the building of the Parkway,
air conditioned cars, the desire of Ocean Township to have its own
High School, the closing of Marlboro Hospital and the rise of the
Malls (to name a few) are all examples of AP keeping its head in the
sand about events outside the City that greatly affected it.
Talking about the national election was certainly important to AP, as
important as when we talk of national financial trends.
