A big "THANK YOU" to these posters tonight on DU!!!
Even on days when there seems to be something in the water of the DU drinking fountain, we have awesome, productive, positive posts!

I'd like to thank these members and (many others who I didn't take time to recognize, but appreciate nonetheless):

2. I like the diversity and the mish mash of...
"awesome productive posts" and "drinking fountain" posts.

The diversity and different personalities--are what makes DU go 'round!

16. Like none other, nothing else like her.
I hope she never changes and keeps her show, pretty sure she will!

8. Ah yes, the "Usual Suspects"
Some members can always be counted on to post stuff that's invariably worth reading. Nance Greggs is another.

I'd like to say

to them all.

12. I picked my five favorites from the first two pages of most recently posted.
Those that lead to inspiring articles or videos and that were about hope and optimism and our future president and us.

And yes, Nance Greggs is a fixture, top of any list, but didn't have a great post this particular evening.

Love your "grateful dinosaur".

10. I'd like to add my thanks also, but I have a feeling most of the
people on my email list wish to Hell you guys would just stop it. Most of them haven't read this much news in their entire lives and I know they groan whenever they see an email from me. heehee

14. A lot of people I know have learned more about elections this cycle than they..
...learned over their entire adult lives.

Nobody had heard of superdelegates, for example, and many didn't know about winner take all states or the electoral college.

It's a good year for voter awareness and enlightenment.

15. Awwww....
Shucks!

I was compelled to distract myself and others from what seems to have been a hailstorm of nasty threads and replies within threads today.

There's plenty to be happy about, and happiness takes less energy and makes us live longer.

I give credit to those mentioned and want people to go there and get off the track of calling one another names and getting all hostile...

Many a great thread gets buried by a concern post or a negative thread...

13. Thanks for getting all those together
for us, NYC SKP.

I just saw the "Fundementally Wrong" Ad.. Zing!

And the "Ruthless Pragmatism" article!

The youtube wasn't working for me on pinto's OP but I'll check it out.

And, babylonsister's "Get Out Her Vote"

Together we can make sure our votes are a key part of this election.

17. My pleasure, zidzi...
Sometimes these great threads get buried by concern threads or negative threads having a troll fest, or infighting threads that rise to the top.

I sort by most recent post and just pick the ones I care about, but I know in the default view great posts sink, and many people never get to see them.

21. HopeAndChange, grantcart, phrigndmass (sp?), JoeIsOneOfUs, so many others...
always post useful and important links.

And if I even begin to list favorite members for their fun and interesting posts, I'll leave someone out.

Honorable mention to swampg8tr, though, for running a DUzy thread with me a couple months back!

20. Why, thank you!
I'm one of the unnamed masses...and that's the way I like it!

I've got to say I like DU too. Since before I was born, the 'Pubs have been messing up this country. It's good to see so many people trying to correct the damage they've done to this country.

22. PS, be sure to Kick and Rec the Links mentioned!
They deserve the recognition.

Odd how the locked posts get the greatest number of comments and views...

"Sarah Palins Lips"... locked at 41 comments, 781 views

"Barack needs to stop yelling...", locked at 110 comment, 2001 views.

32. Hey there!
You got an honorable mention mid-thread, I was tired of seeing the good posts sink amidst many flamewars and picked the top five from the two most recently posted pages.

Have a great day!
