jep, if you have copies of these items and thus know who else has 
responded to them, you may want to consider writing emails to everyone 
who responded asking for their permission to delete their responses. 
Then, if the vote goes to restore your items, you can still get most of 
them deleted. The few comments that would be left probably wouldnt be 
very damaging to you. I imagine that most folks would be willing to 
allow you to delete their comments. I know I would.
