I rarely can follow day to day politics w/o getting depressed!!

Even at Democratic Underground there are few days when I log out and say this was a nice news day..Especially during these last couple of months..But today was different, for the first time in several weeks I was able to feel good about things, just because of this!!

Isn’t it rather rare lately to smile while reading a piece of news?

Like you I come here for news and am tired of Democratic politics lately on it.

For the most part I go Latest Treads now and just skip over all Primaries, BS and HRC threads. Makes it much faster and I don't walk away as pissed off.
