We don't need to destroy the other candidates with trash and bash tactics, we need to point out the strong points of the candidate we support and show people why they should voter for the best candidate, not keep attacking the other candidate because "they are worse".

I was for O'Malley, and the one thing that helped by decided was the O'Malley group. There was no negative posts about the "other candidates", just a ton of information about O'Malley and why he would be the best candidate for the WH. Not one person was ever banned from that group, and that says a lot.
