Congratulations!
Please allow this Clintonite to extend my heartfelt congratulations to DU's Obamanites.

Senator Obama is running an amazing race. If he does became the Party's nominee, I will be proud to join all of you.

If this race gets much more exciting, I think my head will explode!

1. Thank you
You are a class act. I just wish that more on both sides were like you.

2. I wish that as well.
The rancor is getting completely out of hand.

Hate and venom has never served anyone well.

We can have productive debate and even heated argument without getting into name calling and accusations.

3. I thank you, as well
Your quality shows immediately in that you don't stoop to making up either cute or derogatory names for either side. I find the "Hillobot" characterization as offensive as the "Obamabot" one. It's more "Red State, Blue State" division and dehumanization of people who don't agree with each other.

We are all Americans and those of us who care enough to engage in sincere civic activity should honor each other for it, even when we disagree.

I think your post here made my day. :-)
