If Dems Can Not Win Control of DU, How Can We Win an Election?

[McCamy Taylor]

I look at the front page and I see 8 out of 10 threads in the "trending" and "greatest" devoted to Kompromat! Kompromat, as in KGB/Russian/GOP dirty trick number one---sex smears against enemies of the KGB/GOP.

If we can not control our own message on our own message boards, there is no way in hell we will be able to craft the message we need to win in 2018. We will be too busy being divided and conquered and making apologies for things that need no apology because they never happened.

I love DU, but someone needs to take charge. This is literally worse than the Russia hack after the election. During DU's down time, we knew we were being silenced. Now, some of us may be under the impression that we are making our voices heard, when in fact we are singing to the Kremlin's tune.

DU is drowning in a sea of Kompromat. Can someone throw us a life preserver, please? Or maybe start a special forum for all the discussion of all the sex smears. Sort of like the special forums we have for contentious topics like the Middle East. With moderators whose job is to keep agitators from killing DU from within.

Pretty please?

1. The Democratic Party is like a dog sled pulled by a team of cats.

Every cat is pulling in its own direction, and teamwork is a pipe dream rather than a reality.

We may not like where the Republican team is heading, but at least all their dogs are pulling in the same direction.
