Wow! I am "bashing an elected Democrat" on DU! Oh, the humanity! Maybe I should have posted an OP calling Grayson a "piece of shit used car salesman" - I understand that's now acceptable on DU when speaking of an "elected Democrat".
"Nice use of DU a week before the election." I wouldn't worry about it. I'm sure my post on this thread has little impact - undoubtedly lost among the many, many posts about how Dems don't stand for anything, the whinging OPs about getting too many emails from Dems asking for contributions to their campaigns, the "both parties are the same" posts, the "Democrats are spineless" posts, etc. - all of which have been posted a week before the election.
Yes, I BASHED AN ELECTED DEMOCRAT. There was a time I wouldn't have done that on a "Democratic site" - but DU is no longer a "Democratic site", and hasn't been for years.
If it is acceptable to bash the duly-elected (twice) Democratic President here, it would seem apparent that bashing any Democrat, including Grayson, is equally acceptable.
