(25,699 posts)You know, the same folks who helped beat down any and all support for democrats on DU two years ago? The same folks who, for the past three years, have found nothing but misery in the fact that Obama is president, and then lie about how they're just upset he's "not progressive enough"?
Obama might not have brought his A game to the first debate. Anyone who's watching could see that Romney didn't even bring the right fucking ball to the game, though. But to hear the meat-waste "Concerned progressives" tell it, this is all certain doom. It's time to give up. Just accept it. Don't bother voting, it won't matter, blah blah blah.
And it's fucking WORKING. This internal voter suppression tactic is working. And the more people mope, the more it works.
If we lose this election, it won't be because Obama was stiff in the first debate. It'll be because "progressives" pulled another 2010 and worked their asses off to get Republicans into office by wet blanketing their "compatriots."
