Reply #92: I'm just tired of retread attacks from the primaries and election [View All]

As for Kerry, although I understand people being disappointed in him, this reliving of the GE is getting extremely tired. I complained, often, during the campaign about my problems with the way it was being run. I was angry after the election for a while. I was disappointed in the quick concession. But Jesus Christ on a pogo-stick, move the fuck on, already. It's over, how long are you going to be "disappointed" and do you really need to invade every Kerry thread to tell the tale of your personal pain? And by the way, we all know he voted for IWR, we don't need to be endlessly reminded of it. So did a LOT of Dems.

Clinton, I don't touch. He's my man, despite his flaws, and if people don't like it, fuckem. If he helps his wife, that's his job, imho.

Hillary, I don't like. I helped put her in office and I'm dreading her run for POTUS, but I'm holding my fire for if and when that happens. I will criticize her for her horrible votes in the meantime, like I would any of them.

As a Clark supporter, there is always, always, some joker who wants to drag up the handful of issues that have been either debunked, refuted or otherwise argued to death for a year and a half, now. I'm sick of dreading even seeing a Clark thread on this forum because I know that there is a 75% chance that it will be derailed into a flamefest with this shit. This just isn't fair, to me. Am I supposed to feel bad there are a lot of Clarkies on DU? Should I apologize for their enthusiasm? Don't hold your breath.

As far as I'm concerned, "so-and-so for 2008" threads are fair game, as long as the criticism doesn't descend into right-wing talking points against Dems, something that I've seen too much of here lately.
