2. Who We Are: Democratic Underground is an online community for Democrats and other progressives. Members are expected to be generally supportive of progressive ideals, and to support Democratic candidates for political office.
I understand your point of view. I also understand that advocating not voting if a particular person is the candidate of the Democratic Party is against the rules; remember Cindy Shehan?
Modern Politics has taken on the virtual characteristics of armed conflict. In the words of Lt. General James Longstreet, CSA: "This war is a nightmare; you have to pick your side and put your head down."
Don't think for one minute that I AGREE with the POLITICS of this situation; I merely hold that no matter what happens, President _____ is better than President McCain. That's the fight, and it still must be clear that unless one wishes (as I have said on occasion) to : "Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud hatch out," then there is a right side and a wrong side in this fight. To suggest that you do not support the "right side" because your candidate isn't the one running is counterproductive.
AND against the rules.
