Reply #26: That's fine [View All]

But I don't think we're looking for lionization here. There's got to be a middle ground between bowing down to the man and saying "Too little, too late" at everything he does.

It's the negativity that gets to be a drag, for me anyway.

A reasoned account of where people are coming from would be appreciated, by me anyway. But the drive-by snarky comments from folks who actually seem to be enjoying themselves in their rush to shout "He's standing up for us! He's got our back!" Or the right wing talking points inherent in "Yeah, right Kerry! Go home to your fancy mansion!"

It's just hard for some of us to realize that some other of us agree with the right wingers about our former candidate. It's also hard to realize that some are still fighting 2004 primary battles, and others are already fighting 2008 primary battles.

That's the view from this broad, anyway.
