As an Edwards supporter, I feel that "It's time for us to come together and heal our wounds." is a recipe for disaster. The way I see it, when the republicans are in charge, they get their way about everything, and in doing so, they create great discord. Then when we win, we are supposed to be conciliatory and put the bitterness behind us. So the GOP gets things all their way part of the time, and half their way the rest of the time, and we get very litle progress even when we win.
After Nixon-Ford, Carter tried being conciliatory. After Reagen-Bush, Clinton tried being conciliatory.We all know how the right responded. How long are we going to continue with this cycle of abuse?
It's not time to accommodate conservatism, it's time to roll it back. Funny how no one talks about being tired of partisanship when the republicans are winning.
