(40,416 posts)Uhm! Why????
It is not like anybody has to decide on a candidate any time soon.
DUers seemingly have jumped the shark on 2016. I find the narratives here about 2016 to be more than a bit maddening.
It is months until any caucus or primary. It is nearly a year and a half before the election.
Only in the USA does the media twist the public into actually believing that there is any urgency to who is running or not in 2016.
I see no urgency at all. I am listening to the putative candidates and will make a decision some time before I can vote. Until then, I find the infighting to be not only counterproductive but premature in the extreme.
Above all, let us discuss, but playing into perpetual campaign narrative plays into the media hands, not those of your putative candidate of choice at this time.
Relax! At this point, all this hyperventilating about 2016 hurts us all. Take a breath once in a while.
Also, it makes DU suck.
You are being played.
