DU challenge for Tuesday Feb. 19th
Edited on Mon Feb-18-08 08:15 PM by busymom
I would like to issue a DU challenge. For tomorrow starting from midnight tonight and going until 11.59pm tomorrow I would like to challenge us to only post positive things about the candidate that we support. No negative topics about the other candidates or negative media reports about the candidates allowed.

I would like to declare tomorrow a love fest where we only love on the candidates.

Can I get anyone to hold hands and sing kumbaya with me for just 24 hours?

Could GD: P do it?

8. It shouldn't be too hard.
I'll have to refrain from reading any negative threads that may be up so I don't implode.

Thanks for bringing some positivity to the board! :hi:

14. I owe it to my candidate not to throw in the towel, when vile shit gets posted about him.....
I can't stand to read the Forum littered with Negative Obama threads that happen once every 2 seconds.

13. I posted something neutral today
Just information about the two of them that seemed even-handed.

10. I'm in!
And this should include not only starting threads, but responses, too. (I know...it's hard not to defend your candidate when he or she is being unfairly attacked on the boards).
