Everyone, Can we please stop tearing each other apart! We should be fighting
Edited on Sat Feb-23-08 09:38 PM by ralps
the Republicans & John McCain not each other!! I've been posting here at DU since 2003 & I thought of DU as my online home, but in the last few months It's become almost poisonous with all the in fighting & people acting like spoiled children. IMO DU has become a dysfunctional family. Now a days I only post in the KOEB & the nightly Malloy thread. I don't want to post any where else because of the In fighting. Today it seems as though there have been 10-15 threads on the greatest page tearing Hillary down & 10-15 threads tearing Barak down. IMO We need to be Tearing McCain & The Republican down!

4. Sorry, but at this moment the enemy is the one who is tearing this party apart

Once the short term threat has been dealt with we can move on to the more important issues.

5. I Agree
If we don't grow up we will be talking about "President McCain." Does anyone really want that? I will vote for whichever democrat gets the nomination.

16. Of course the WH is the objective this year, and I don't blame either C or O
from campaigning as hard as they are, but OMG does Senator Clinton REALLY have to do this? I'd lay odds this just drives voter away from her, especially after that apparent show of solidarity last Thursday.

I'm disappointed for sure, and the predictable "hate threads" I've seen as a result here are really getting nasty.

At least it will all be over on the 5th.

PS - I borrowed the "disappointed" characterization from McCain. Just to set the record straight.

15. I am sure that once the primaries are over, we can focus on that
It is hard to ignore your candidate's opponent on the daily attack.

23. First we need to tear Hillary down before we can lift the nation up.
I mean Hillary is such a polarizing figure, she needs to take some responsibility for the negative feelings directed towards her. Before we can lift this nation up we first need to tear Hillary down, then tear John McCain down.

25. Well Said!
It has gotten to the point where if I see a Clinton or Obama thread these days I mostly bypass them for fear of reading yet another thread full of trashing and trash talk.
