Hey! Everybody! BOTH candidates |
|
are exceptional, talented people and represent a choice far preferable to any repuke.
(thanks to those of you who helped to remind me of this.)
I'm still not convinced that either of them truly represents "change," but that's another issue.
Completely unprecedented crowds are coming out for Democratic primaries and caucuses and voting, in effect, against the repukes.
It's all good, so start behaving yourselves. You can be passionate about your candidate without engaging in utterly non-constructive flamefests.

1. Oh My God I Actually Totally Agree With You! Did You Have A Bad Dream Or Something? |

I actually mean this sincerely... I wouldn't have expected a post like this from you. Great job!

3. With so much Clinton bashing |
|
I think I'll look for another place to talk to folks about the primaries. Maybe I'll find one that's not so biased against Clinton.

too many rabid supporters and operatives
too little civil discourse

6. I didn't see this earlier, |
|
but I agree with you 100%. Some of the stuff being posted is really childish and petty. There are a lot of us that are not completely satisfied with either candidate, but it's fruitless to go around trashing either or both of them. It's not going to change any minds, and it just creates ill will.

7. LOTS of zealots with no interpersonal skills |
|
how many DUers posted completely innocuously for the last year or so, but now that the primaries are underway are relentless partisans spewing the party-line of one candidate or another?
very suspicious

People that I thought were my friends aren't speaking to me now, just because I'm not completely in love with Obama. And I didn't even say anything mean. I'm a Biden/Edwards/Richardson/Dodd/Kucinich/Gravel supporter. What can I say?
I can't wait for December.
