I think that the R&F will come around
[Read the article: Obama, Clinton and the working class]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hillary does not have a good record on jobs, really. She is, by her own assessment, the Senator from Punjab. She indicated, in a meeting with Indian body shops (who bring in scab IT workers and undercut US IT workers) that she strongly supports this strategy. This is not a good strategy for US workers.

A great suggestion
[Read the article: Making sense of Super Tuesday]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Now the Mittster is gone and McCain is trying to make nice with CPAC is it reasonable to ask the more pungent critics of Sen Obama and Sen Clinton to take a time out?"
I think that both Hillary supporters and Obama supporters should resist the opportunity to find the minutia of differences in the other side. McCain is a target-rich environment, and is hated by conservatives and liberals alike. If we spend the next 10 months destroying him, life would be good.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]"Dataguyx, it is fine for you to talk truce when you have been the last two days using gender-specific sexist language against supporters of Senator Clinton. You insult people who merely ask questions or who have concerns about issues or concerns about experience. I just want you to know that I am going to call you on it everytime, that sexism is no more excusable than racism, and that calling Hillary supporters strident or nuns or whatever you want to say to downgrade their opinion because they are female is unacceptable."
And I see that your HYSTERICAL and VINDICTIVE program of DESTRUCTIVE and NASTY rhetoric will continue.
Hey, I'm crying here. Makes me look like Hillary, eh?
We need to attack John McCain. I agree with that. You obviously want to attack other Democrats. well, have at it.
I ain't backing down in my contempt for VINDICTIVE and NASTY Hillary supporters, like you, Hon.

Let the record show

[Read more letters about this article: Here]that my attempts at conciliation will continue.
As posted earlier:
"Now the Mittster is gone and McCain is trying to make nice with CPAC is it reasonable to ask the more pungent critics of Sen Obama and Sen Clinton to take a time out?"
I think that both Hillary supporters and Obama supporters should resist the opportunity to find the minutia of differences in the other side. McCain is a target-rich environment, and is hated by conservatives and liberals alike. If we spend the next 10 months destroying him, life would be good.
We need to consider how to attack McCain. We do not need to look further in a petty way at Obama's votes about things in the Illinois legislature, or Hillary's votes about Iraq. We need to think about John McCain's votes.
Let's be REALLY REALLY clear: There is very little difference between Hillary and Barack in policy and their degree of liberal leaning. Both are slightly liberal, and pretty moderate at that. If you wish to now say that Barack is this, or Hillary is not enough of that, you are a divisive force, and should back off.
What we have is two candidates. One has a number of years of experience at one thing or another but who carries a lot of negative baggage. The other has less experience, but has shown the ability to attract new voters, and does not have the same negative baggage. We need to discuss things at that level, not in the destructive level of "BHO's vote shows that he is the spawn of Satan" or "HRC's vote is the worst in the world".
I suggest that those on both sides back off, as others have requested. For those who choose to carry on vindictive, hysterical and nasty campaigns, you will condemn yourself as a poor democrat and worse advocate for your own candidate. Be here notified.

There you go again
[Read the article: Making sense of Super Tuesday]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]"You spent much time at Broadsheet recently attacking women there who wanted to talk about the issue of Obama's past votes on abortion. You don't seem to understand that issues are fair game. "
Yes, I did spend time at Broadsheet countering the LIES, DISTORTIONS and OUTRIGHT FABRICATIONS of liars like you, AKA.
They didn't want to talk about the issue. The women just wanted to find LIES and DISTORTIONS about Mr. Obama's record.
You can continue this process of LYING, DISTORTING, and FABRICATING. You are a divisive and unpleasant correspondent, and you are not a good democrat.
