A Call for honesty:: A personal pledge to Advocacy and Objectivity [View All]

[Perky]

Ok look I am an Obama supporter and I do not believe have ever said anything about Hillary that I regret or did not objectively believe. But I am sure some Clinton supporters would disagree. There is a great tendency to sling mud on DU rather than advocate for our personal preferences.

What New Hampshire means us that the fight for the nomination is likely to continue through Super Tuesday and possibly (I think probably) to the Balloon drop in Denver. While the candidates deserve our ardent support, this need not devolve into a daily food fight/bloodbath. It takes too much time, it leads nowhere. and most of us really do need a life outside of DU. As importantly, we all should appreciate the fact that we will need to close ranks when it is over.

Taking the long view. I pledge to strongly advocate for my candidate and as much as possible, whenever possible. objectively, consistently challenge Clinton supporter with facts rather than insults, half-truths, lies, innuendo or meanness

I have made a decision not to "go negative" but focus instead on the policies, comportment and values of my candidate.

I invite you to join me whoever you may support.
