Holy crap, the meanieheads will be out in droves again tonight, huh?
2008: The Year The Election Became the Equivalent of Harry/Ginny vs. Harry/Hermione 'shippers, or, how we learned to stop thinking and love a good old fashioned flame war.....
Kids! Seperate corners! Shut the hell up for a hot second before you start the daily pissing contest. At this rate you'll all be dead of heart attacks and strokes by the time the election comes around. Breathe in, breathe out. Pet your dog, kiss your spouse, watch some internet porn, whatever it takes to stop all this nonsense and have an adult conversation, for the love of Betsy Ross.
I've always liked Salon because the conversation was always intelligent, spirited and respectful. Lots of views, lots of interesting and unique voices - isn't that what we're supposed to be about on the left? C'mon, some of us need to know that the entire country has not lost it's mind and that the internet still contains people who can talk instead of scream at each other.
Salon, you were my last hope. I still have faith in you. We're supposed to be the nice ones.
