With 50 days to go, here is a good question to ask yourself before you post in this forum:

[RiverStone]

How will this post help us to win in the General Election?


peace~:)

[tabatha]

1. Agreed.

[Andy823]

2. Good point.

Doom and gloom, or thousands of Palin posts are not going to get the job done! And least I forget, the hell with all the polls!

[PBS Poll-435]

3. ...

[barack the house]

4. Especially the titles some of them are very negative and dmagaing to us.

[barack the house]

5. They must be postive optimistic it's sell sell sell sell. Except if talking about GOP.

[amborin]

6. we won't

convince anyone with anything posted on here

the purpose of any negative posts is to change things we're doing now, while there is maybe still some time to turn things around

sometimes fear is a great motivator

we need a massive GOTV

can we have Van pools to take voters to the polls on election day????

when we went door to door in a low income area of nevada in '04, the ride system was terrible

voters were ready to vote, but had no transportation....and it was hours before a ride arrived

[barack the house]

12. I'm talking postive about our side really, it did say except about the GOP.

[barack the house]

14. I understand your points certainly and for all that but folks browsing DU want things to vote for >

than against too. If we ONLY attack it would appear we don't believe in ourselves.

[RagAss]

7. Yes...short and sweet... add to the fight or Shut the F*ck Up !!

[tekisui]

8. Sound advice.

[BlueIdaho]

9. Thank You! nt.

[Danger Mouse]

10. Or: "Am I a whiny little shit and fatalist? Then maybe I shouldn't bother.'

I'm sick of making nice with the weak-kneed.

[AlinPA]

11. I like it.

[Peacetrain]

13. Truth in what you say..

The right wing posts in here as concerns, (you can tell the difference between commentary and set up concern posts to get people mad) and then whacko righties, put out columns etc, saying even in the most liberal of blogs they are questioning Obama.

Which is a bunch of made up hooey to try and swing the indy voter into thinking Obamas base is not sure.

[cliffordu]

15. Agreed.

[Essene]

16. and this is where i think efforts oughta go...

at getting the word out AMONG INDEPENDENTS about how palin's a fake fiscal conservative.

see http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x7055782

the ballgame is not about democrats flapping around among themselves, but about getting people registered and getting the truth out there to independent & undecided voters.

[mod mom]

19. and DU is a treasure trove of info to post on bi-partisan sites.

:hi:

I'm working election protection this year instead of canvassing-I'm just TOO ANGRY to talk to non-Dems. I'll be working as an election observer once early voting starts, in the meantime I'm volunteering while the kids are at school assisting ODP election protection staff in what ever needs to be done ;)

[roseBudd]

21. AND I might add mod mom is a member of the SW OH Rapid Response team reporting from Central OH!

[CatsDogsBabies]

18. I did when I posted my terrorist question about Mccain

I am in another discussion about this on a site (it is a mother's chat area and most of the time people are talking about kids) that has nothing to do with politics, but where everyone is talking about politics now. I don't have much info on Mccain. APparently the only thing people question about McCains morality is the fact that he cheated on his wife, and most people don't care about this because it happened a long time ago.
