Maybe we need a new class of smilies. :nuke: :nuke:
Can't we all just get along?

2. It hasn't erupted in actual gunfire in America yet. So far, so good.

3. Not so far--but check the tenor of some comments.

The direction being taken is not promising, IMO.

4. I agree and I plead guilty, but it's getting ugly and counterproductive.
So I'm going to make a pledge: I'll only make positive comments about our candidates. Either one is a breath of fresh air when compared to McSame.

5. I've been shocked by it
I just started here on DU and cannot bear to read any of the
threads when we start saying such hateful things to each
other.  Come on, knock it off already.  Both Obama and Clinton
are far superior to McCain on any issue and on credibility and
morality.

6. Yep. Politics is politics.
Let's keep our eye on the prize and focus on the positive. The alternative is four more years of neocon hell.
