Lets talk
Ok, so no one can say this whole thing hasn't gotten ugly. Everyone has there feelings as to where it started. Me personally, I saw Clinton supporters getting real ugly with the kool aid comments and the cult of Obama stuff, however i fully understand that Clinton supporters feel like they were getting trashed first. I don't know who's right, and I don't care. Me personally, I think the MSM started the whole thing with little needle and pin comments that put us all on edge, made us all feel defensive and angry.
That's my theory anyways. Ratings are good when things are ugly.
The facts are these, both candidates have drawn amazing support, and at the beginning of this race either one could have won in a landslide. However, we are now in a different position, where both candidates have a real chance of losing. The media loves Mcain, and them ignoring him is good for him.
Whichever way this goes roughly half of us will be disappointed. Some of us will be damn right angry. I'm not fond of Clinton. Mainly because I live in a caucus state and am highly insulted by her insistence on every vote counting but being completely willing to disenfranchise me even though I did not have a choice in how to vote. I will admit that after that she would have to earn my vote in the fall. It won't take much because in my heart I know she will be 1000 times better for this country then Mcain, but effort will have to be made. I know this sounds like an attack. It really isn't. This is how her comments have made me, as a voter, feel.
I feel like we need to stop dismissing each other. We have real concerns, real feelings about what has been said and done. On both sides. By dismissing each other we just make it worse. When my concerns are out right dismissed as hateful anti Clinton rhetoric it makes me angry at Clinton and her supporters. I know Clintons supporters feel the same way.
We all want whats best for this country, and it is obvious that it is not the Warmonger.
The point of this post is just a hope that we can look at each other and realize that we want the same thing. A hope that we can come on this board and voice our concerns with the other candidate without being dismissed or insulted. A hope that we can voice those concerns in a manner that does not insult others.
This was posted because of some of the things I have read recently. It seems to be the first reaction that everyone jumps to is attacking people without realizing that they are voicing real concerns that they have. I have been guilty too.
