Democrats; A Day To Be Proud Of BOTH Of Our Candidates

[SoFlaJet]

Both senators Clinton and Obama today showed they understand what the dynamics on the ground are today in Iraq. Neither one of OUR candidates need to have an ideologue like Joe Lieberman whispering in their ears about WHO THE FUCK WE'RE FIGHTING AND WHY.

Days like this are enjoyable.

6. almost like the old days here at DU

when we all knew what side we were on-the DEMOCRATIC side. I will be happy to cast my vote for either Obama or Clinton over McCain in November.

[BOSSHOG]

10. Anyone of us

who opts otherwise does not see the big picture. Thanks for the thread.

[Sweet Pea]

2. How did they show that?

I was at work and didn't hear anything.

21. Petraeus hearings.

I haven't seen Obama yet but thought Hillary was great, I almost liked her.

[SoFlaJet]

23. what I liked about Obama's line of questioning VOP

is the sense that he knew what the fuck he was talking about-unlike McCain-who continually conflates his enemies for obvious political posturing-just like his buddy boy LIEberman.

[Voice for Peace]

25. Yes. Also, one of his strengths as a communicator is that he is disarming.

It's a real talent.

3. Absolutely.

Kudos to both of them for a job well done today. (Actually, I'm usually proud of both our candidates EVERY day.)

[Marrah_G]

4. Yes- I agree!

[BOSSHOG]

5. Some may not believe this

(like those who have me on ignore for UNITY'S sake) but I am proud of both of our candidates every day. The democratic party is like the Kansas Jayhawks, great starters and a bench that won't quit.

[Marrah_G]

8. I agree with you Boss

All 6 of our candidates were miles better then any of the opposition.

[SoFlaJet]

11. it's getting near that time BOSSHOG

that we all AS DEMMOCRATS come together and support WHOEVER wins the nomination. I will fight for either senator Obama or Clinton-I am a DEMOCRAT first and foremost. I don't want to read one more post by supporters of EITHER campaign saying they won't vote for the other if it's not their first choice

[JeffR]

7. K & R!

[JimGinPA]

9. Yes They Did, And So Did Several Others

K&R

[Captain Hilts]

12. Agreed!

[Bigleaf]

13. K&R

It's days like this that you step back and realize that we're on the same side and have the same goals in mind.

[cbayer]

14. They both were very presidential.

Thanks for the great OP.

[SoFlaJet]

15. thanks cbayer

I wish DU would get back to the place I have been a member of since early 2001 (different name-before a computer crash I think is what happened). This site has been a constant source of information and access for this democrat. I wish every single member here would pledge to vote FOR the democratic nominee and move past the bad feelings and in-fighting of the past 5 months

[cbayer]

17. You are welcome.

I am always happy to support people like you. :toast:

[Window]

16. K/R. Yes, indeed.

:kick:

[cooolandrew]

18. This is true at least they both look competant. Which is a relief after what we've seen.

[SeattleGirl]

19. I'll toast to that!

:toast:

[GarbagemanLB]

20. Agreed. K&R

[KAZ]

24. Absolutely! K&R!

27. Another good thread SOFLA

:thumbsup:

[SoFlaJet]

31. thanks JD

I'm seeing you in a whole different light this evening-I wqish it would just stop-all the animosity-it's gotten old-4 months seem like a year

[jackson_dem]

34. Likewise

:) I think this thread, along with your other one, reminds us who the real opposition is. It isn't Clinton. It isn't Obama. It is the rethugs. A lot of the unpleasantness could be removed if folks recognized that on the issues Clinton and Obama are the same. The caricaturing of "the other" as a DINO is inaccurate and a source of a lot of the emotions on both sides. If you notice, my criticism of Obama isn't about his policies but revolves around his electability, along with some criticism of his tactics. A President Obama would not be a disaster, nor would a President Clinton. A President McSame would be!

[SunsetDreams]

28. absolutely!

I was proud of both of them! I think they nailed it!

The GOP is in deep doo doo!

[bigwillq]

29. K and R

I so agree...we do have two good candidates...so much better than McCain...which is why it infuriates me with some of the bullshit that goes on in GDP.

Biden wasn't too bad either.

[Thepricebreaker]

39. Hillary voted for this mess.. many times to refund... I don't wanna hear

[shadowknows69]

40. Cheers to that

That's what I want to see our candidates doing. They still work for us right?
