I've just created an Avatar for those who support both candidates, you are free to use it as yours
Edited on Wed Feb-13-08 09:15 PM by DS1
This avatar is for people like me who would support either candidate through the general election. This avatar is for people who recognize that nobody is perfect, and every candidate has his or her flaws. This avatar is for Democrats who will vote, held noses or not, for the Democratic ticket even if the Democrat who wins isn't precisely what they want.



I find this infighting ridiculous, and I thought it would be nice if some of the fighters for the Democratic way, regardless of who wins the nomination, could represent themselves as such.

Of course, this thread could drop like a rock, like the rest of my attempts to cut through the hostility from both sides. If it does - oh well.

I encourage DUers who would be happy with either candidate running in the General Election to adopt this avatar. I don't expect many replies, but the show of solidarity would be both comforting and helpful to the entire Dem party.

edited to add instructions:

Right click and save (or Apple click and save) the image I posted to disk. Then go to Options, Edit your profile, then select 'upload', point to where you saved the file, select it, upload it, then follow the instructions of how to make it yours. It's a .gif file.

Nice job!

4. I kind of feel the same way, but I really like Obama, but
of course I'll vote for the dem no matter what. I just think Obama is more electable, and I really like him, and I think hed be better for this country.

10. I like Obama, too
but I'd happily support Hillary. They're both very good. We should feel blessed, in my opinion, that the decision is so seemingly difficult. There's no reason to fight about it.
