Just curious what other good forums there are out there.
It is nice to know you guys are here fighting the good fight for us average Americans.

Are there any others sites you like to go to to get more insight from our other brothers out there also fighting to get it right this time?

2. I'd like to know too. Cause a lot of people here are starting to piss me off.
Way too much negativity about Obama and the campaign. Getting sick of it.

8. Can't you hide the threads you don't want to read?
It is a nice feature that you can use to avoid the threads that annoy you.

12. Yeah, I've felt that too.
I tried adding some optimism to the mix last night: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=7024576&mesg_id=7024576

I'd hoped it would get a few more favorites so more people would see it and get excited about winning like I am, instead of always shaking in their boots, but DU doesn't seem to like optimism much right now. *shrug*

3. Daily Kos.
When it gets too silly in here I go over there. There is apt to be more in-depth reading there.

6. Problem with those sites is that they are "blogs" not forums.
And reading threads becomes tedious as they grow in size.

What would be optimal is a Php-BB or vBulliten like forum similar to DU.

5. HuffPo is good but the site is so slow. This one is the fastest
and the most active. For pure info I like Buzzflash.

11. If there is (and I doubt it) I don't care because DU is just fine for me.
There are also sisters out there.
