To all Edwards supporters
Please, friends, do you really think John and Elizabeth would approve of attacking another fine Democrat or his supporters and our friends here? Even if you believe you have been unfairly attacked, how does it help to bash or taunt? What may seem like fun to you may be hurtful to others. Let's rise above it.

DU is a great place to "meet" with other people with whom we have far more in common than we have differences, a respite from the daily * barrage we encounter nearly everywhere else. We need to cooperate to keep it that way.

Thanks for considering this.

2. all I've seen is baseless Edwards bashing.
Clark is my #2 choice, but I have mentioned a few things that I thought were humorous about the campaign (i.e. his son).

4. There are pages of attacks on Edwards
How many threads on here say, "Edwards can't win?"

I don't condone bashing any candidate, but I understand why some Edwards supporters are heated.

5. "For spooky3--you are exactly...
right on message. Neither John nor Elizabeth would want us to flame.
We should just put the issues out there and rise above the fray.

6. listen, we have to defend our guy
he's been bashed relentlessly here by the clark supporters. They seem to be very angry about the media (we all are to an extent) and about the rumors Clark might drop out....but don't take it out on edwards!

Thank you, spooky3, for your kind words.

I really try to be civil and positive, and I sincerely appreciate it when others are too. We may be in different camps now, but in the end we're gonna have to face the same challenge and win.

8. I agree!
Let's stay positive. No need to go negative on other candidates - that is not what the JRE campaign is about.

9. I just don't get it
why are some many Edwards and Clark supporters attacking each other?

Both sides are aiming for the top of the ticket right? Why are webeating each other down?
