The anti-Democrats spin here at DU is pretty bad. Example: I was away from the TV for a few days...
...but not from the internet. So, I read all the Edwards-hating posts at DU after he endorsed Obama. "Backstabber," "Judas", etc. Well, yesterday, I ran into a friend, and one of the first things he said to me was, "how about Edwards? Did you see his endorsement? It was brilliant. He spent the first five minutes praising Clinton. Some people in the crowd began to boo when he first mentioned her name, and he wouldn't let them. He kept going on about her until he unified the crowd."

Some Judas.

People booing and sowing divisiveness -- that's this election's "ABB". It's a stupid idea invented by Republicans that unwitting, unintelligent Democrats are repeating without understanding how much it's going to help Republicans in the general election.

1. I'm guessing all those Edwards-hating posts were started by a small handful...
...of trolls.

The vast majority of us here are ready for this summer's good fight.
