Hey Fellow Obama Supporters... CHILL OUT already

[Perky]

Yes we want to win....but come on the crying stuff is getting out of hand......Life on the trail is brutal....Her investment is pernal iand huge. Callous Cynicism belongs in Freeperville not here.


Hey Hillary supporters: I apologize for Democrats regardless of who they are backing...


I am shocked at how myopic and vindictive and truly petty some of my friends have become.

1. Thin skin + general election = therapist

If you can't take it on the chin, you shouldn't jump into a fight.

2. I agree Perky.

This stuff is so silly but reflective of how tense we all are right now on both sides.

I understand the cynicism since she did this before and it does have appeal to women.

I tend to believe both times it was stress and exhaustion that caused the tears.

I do not know how any of them campaign so hard anyway.

Let's just let it go and move on to tomorrow

3. Hillary supporters deserve a bit of chastising too don't you think?

They have been particularly vile today, but in DU and in calls to various talk shows.

Let FACTS be your guide please! Snarky misquotes and untruths are not becoming and don't help your candidate to get people to actively support him/her in the general.

5. You CAN'T be serious.....

this IS a joke right??

[Windy]

Oh I'm absolutely serious. This cuts both ways and you are one of the biggest offenders!

Again, stick to the facts. People here have already made up their minds for the most part. Your unfounded attack posts don't do anything but inflame passions here which isn't helpful.

11. I find that highly amusing after reading some of your posts today

If you practiced what you preached, this would be a much happier place.

4. Thank you Perky..I don't always agree with you, but you try to be fair

commendable...

6. Newsflash: I don't think these are Democrats n/t

7. I'm way chill - why not? Lookin' better than I expected

The attacks don't bother me much - expected

(funny - two "ignored" in this thread. So I guess I'm missing some of those attacks. Whatta shame. LOL)

8. I really appreciate this.

If anything, because I don't like blowing up in a thread, but I did, and that's that.

It IS petty, and it IS destructive. Polemical politics does not work, imho.

And I appreciate someone extending a hand and showing a little rationality. Thank you.

13. Your Post was th e reason I started this thread.

9. Thank you for your post.

I agree with you completely.

I've worked as a volunteer for Barack Obama's campaign for months. It's been a great experience largely due to the wonderful, positive people with whom I've worked.

I don't know why things have become so ugly here at DU. And I think some of the nasty posters are here simply to stir shit, not promote their candidate.

10. I don't buy it...I feel sorry others do

[donheld]

12. The ugliness really needs to stop now!

I'm an Obama supporter and it does seem to me that the Obama people have been just horrendous the last few days. I say STOP
