Attacking pessimism in the name of optimism and vice-versa is hypocritical.
I hadn't logged on DU for ages--perhaps since the 'P' in GD:P stood for "presidential". I knew there would be arguments between Democrats, but this is petty BS going on here--

DUer A: We're gonna lose--
DUer B: Fuck you, A: you're helping the enemy with your "defeatism"!
DUer C: We could win!
DUer D: Show me the link, asshole. You need to keep your dreams to yourself.


Please realize that statements like those given by A and C above are valid emotions and/or predictions. No one knows what could happen in swiftboat season.



thanks

1. You would be more credible if you had moved on with your primary sour grapes.

Also B and D are valid with some posters, who are either surrealistic optimistic (we are going to win seats) or giddily defeatist (We will lose state A even with 10 points ahead for democrat in state A).
