YOUR candidate DOES not SUCK! so prove it!
how many negative posts have you seen today in gd.p? how many positive posts have you seen? lets say something nice about our candidate, whoever it is. lets compile a list of what is good about our fellow democrats instead of what is soo fucking bad. i will start with both of them.

obama: well spoken, charismatic leader. he inspires people to believe that they can do better and that our country can be better than it is. he has made a generation get involved that may not have gotten involved without him.

hillary: is a passionate and caring person. she will fight for what she believes is right-- and as long as you agree with her than you can rest assured that she will fight for what you think is right also.



see, its not that hard. now you try.

1. I really applaud your effort, but it is falling on deaf ears.

I tried the same thing yesterday and all I got were rude snarky responses.

I'll give you a rec for the effort though.

5. Hillary is smart and ambitious. Barack inspires music and art which bring beauty to the world...
Edited on Mon Mar-17-08 12:10 AM by barack the house
Obama reaches inside us for our goodness and our creation that can create the solutions to co2 To lift us to fuel efficiency and make us open our arms to the world. Life is about inspiration without it we are in hibited and afraid, not an American value. Feminity is softness kindness creation I am very feminist about those values,enen as aguy.

8. I am in.
Hillary is strong as freaking nails. I know she could stand up to anyone. Anyone. She is fearless.

Barack is inspirational. He is bringing people in that have sat on the sidelines way too long. He brings a message that I am desperate to hear.

Both have policies that are consistent enough with my own beliefs.

Both are light years ahead of what we have now.

I want a unified ticket.

19. Oh you!
Edited on Mon Mar-17-08 01:13 AM by Forkboy
Ok...

I really, really like that Obama is drawing in so many young people. The Dems need a major infusion of new blood, from top to bottom, and anything or anyone who can help that along is welcomed by me. Many of these people will stay involved, and I believe that even if Obama doesn't win most will stay Dems.


I have to be honest though, I have a hard time with things for Hillary beyond the generic answers like her intelligence and political skill, and even both of those are good or bad depending on the person possessing them, and I'm honestly left wondering about Hillary, even more so after the campaign.

Sorry, I don't mean to be negative on what is trying to be a positive thread (which is highly welcomed btw). But I won't bullshit you either. It's my honest feeling right now.

Wait, I did think of something, though it applies to Obama as well. Both have 100% ratings from Naral and Planned Parenthood.

20. hey at least you had something nice to say about one of them...
and you didn't personally attack the other one... if all of us did this then we would all get along much better i think.

21. Well I added one good thing about Hillary on an edit.
There's probably more, but it's late and I'm getting crazy. :)
