The names really need to change! Ya'll are showing your bias! I agree. I think it depends on how people - the primary participants - want the board to evolve. This certainly can continue to be a conservative-oriented board, which is - from what I have gathered - what Douglas intended. It's his website ... No, no .... I ain't goin' there! Two ways of looking at it: a. Do you want to try to replicate the atmosphere (politically ... not THAT atmosphere) with all the extremes associated with it, or ... b. A truly conservative board, where the primary focus is on what conservative does/should mean and does/should stand for. I think we'd be more rounded with a more balanced orientation; but I doubt we'll run out of things to discuss, and in some cases discuss vehemently. The risks - as I see it - is the possibility that the board gets so homogenized that it becomes boring. On the other hand, if the liberals can get past the board title and its obvious physical orientation, then who knows what might develop? The one thing we have in our favor here, is the well-developed characters and history from the old PF. It might just work this way. I've had the same concerns as you, and have raised them with Douglas and the other moderators.
