Okay, I [started a thread](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/a-thread-started-shortly-after-harriss-choice-of-walz-as-vp/1005352/2). But I feel as though it is confusing and responses will be split between the old thread and the new one. Or the old thread will simply continue under the new (and misleading for the first thousand-plus posts!) name, and my thread will die.

I don’t take it personally if my thread dies, but I AM disappointed by the fact we can’t discuss Walz with a clearly fresh start.
