In reply to the discussion: Obamacare: It's Obama's signature achievement [View all]1StrongBlackMan
(31,849 posts)31. Funny how that works, huh? ...
People complain the voters aren't "excited" enough and that's why they don't vote, yet the same people cut down "cheerleading." They are against drumming up positive feeling and excitement.
And those that criticize "cheer-leading" seem to ignore that "cheer-leading" and "Booing" are different sides of the same coin, i.e., expressing support or displeasure.
Lastly, those critical of "cheer-leading" seem to have no problem when the "cheer-leading" is for their politico of choice, i.e., "We just need more like {Insert politico of choice} ... What? {politico of choice} supported said legislation? ... CRICKETS."

If you are talking to a potential Dem voter ... what will you say about the ACA?
