(15,438 posts)you'd be hard pressed not to think that they would've preferred McCain or Mittens to President Obama. It's become so toxic that any and all posts that are positive in regards to our current POTUS is immediately and viciously attacked (as well as the poster who dares to post such a post).
Now I realize that most of them who are on a perpetual attack of this president aren't really Democrats. They're more of the Liberaltarian-types: a hybrid between Liberals and Libertarians. And they absolutely loathe this POTUS with a passion.
But you are undoubtedly correct, that in this election year where we just might lose the Senate if we don't pump up the enthusiasm and GOTV and we would then hamstring this president completely while Republicans are rewarded for doing absolutely nothing for the American people for the past five years, it's vital that we set petty snarks and criticisms aside regarding this president and the Democratic Party, and now enter GOTV mode.
Unfortunately, too many Liberaltarians and Republitarians on this site who absolutely hate this president won't stop breaking the ToS rules and continue, in the most sneakiest ways, to attack both this president and the Democratic Party to dampen enthusiasm for the upcoming elections. To me, that's reason to get their pizza delivered, but I guess these days on DU it's okay.
