Showing Original Post only (View all)I would like DU defeatists to keep their opinions to themselves until it is OVER! [View all]
Some people would like to keep the fight going since it IS NOT OVER YET! Until it is please do not post negative replies. I understand you think you are being a realist but you are being a defeatist. We do not need to hear negative comments at this time. Thanks! RESISTANCE is PATRIOTISM!

No, but I believe I am a member of a team and I hope you are on that team too.

I think the OP is referring to people who are declaring the fight to be over before it's over.

I've been hearing that argument since Reagan. So when do we admit we have been defeated?
