But with the post you were quoting I was just trying to take GGG down a notch. He seemed to be bragging his state was above any of these issues.

Perhaps you should read again. I was noting the ways in which a particular group that both RT and I are on seems to be useful in Massachusetts, as in Texas. Remember, we have a Republican governor (and a Sheriff who has gone full-Arpaio.)
The 500% increase in third party voting in those states is one of the most notable things about this campaign. That is a BFD.
