... any call for unity AND/OR a respite from Dem-Bashing never gains any traction.

That's because the majority of posters here are only here to be negative, to spout RW talking points under the guise of "criticizing" their own, to encourage others to see no difference between the parties, to discourage voting for Dems, and - first and foremost - to fight with everyone and anyone who dares support this President and this Party.

I no longer consider DU to be a "Democratic" site. It's just another political message board, and the SOP has become a joke.

I agree with you about the importance of the upcoming midterms - a lot of us do, and a lot of us want to see more Dems elected. But we are in the minority here.
