This post sums up what
Edited on Thu Jan-10-08 05:14 PM by politicasista
I think about all this madness aka vitriol.


Note: This isn't a call out or gang-up thread, but I find it sad that people take one endorsement and just go over the top (i.e. bring up the Swifites, the concession-Ohio, 04, how the endorsement will hurt, and so on).

Even sadder, the vile and anger is coming from people "out there" that I usually like and respect.

1. That's a good post, though, because it shows people are paying
attention.

Sometimes, a person can only show an ugly side of himself for so long before people just get fed up. And I noticed on the dKos threads that even some of the negative posts about JK referred to him as "too honest" "too smart" or "a nice guy." So one thing we can hope for is a trend toward "nicer" politics. It's really about time. How many people do you know who've turned off politics because everyone who runs for office is just too darn nice to his opponents?
