Reply #53: Shooting ourselves in the foot with complaining [View All]

[jmainer]

One of the problems that Democrats and liberals have had for years has been always seeing the dark side; what's wrong with someone or something and banding together to fight against ideas instead of standing up for ideas.

Go ahead and criticize me for writing this. I don't care.

This thread has made me angry. Instead of complaining about how boring she was, why hasn't any of this thread been about the substance or tenor of her rebuke?

I found her calm manner to be refreshing. And I was pleased that she appealed to a higher vision of non-partisan politics.

You, who are reading this, who may be Obama backers, must see that he is appealing to the same higher cause. He is by far the better speaker, that much is obvious. But the bottom line is that most Americans are sick to death of partisan politics, infighting and just plain ol' impoliteness.

If the Dems are to win in November, inclusiveness will be a big reason. So, let's stop our bickering and whining!
