...that some people are afraid to take a risk on actually *wanting* to win and *hoping* for a victory this time.
i started this poll because. i found myself wanting to ask people here on DU, "are you sure you *want* to win? because with your fatalistic attitude, you aren't helping the cause AT ALL."
then it occurred to me that i am still FURIOUS about 2000, let alone 2004, and no doubt it is emotionally safer to stay distant from this year's struggle and play the jaded doomsayer rather than put your heart into an unfair and unpredictable fight.
even though the facts say that our margin of victory in many, many races is too large to be flipped by any kind of dirty trick, i can sympathize with those who are nervous.
i have no patience for those who are nervous and PASSIVE, when now more than ever we need to be ACTIVEly building up our margins all over the country so that more and more seats are safely out of range of dirty tricks.
