Reply #20: I think that aside from a few Freepers that post here no one on this site wants to see Obama fail

[Bjorn Against]

There are of course Freepers who do post here, but I think they exist on both sides of the debate. I think there are some who post on here acting as overzealous Obama supporters in an effort to make other Obama supporters look bad and there are others who post things on here that are very critical of Obama, although those ones often end up tombstoned pretty fast.

Before you dismiss critics as not having a shred of support for Obama however I would suggest you ask them about specific policies that most DUers tend to agree on. Do they support Obama's efforts to move towards renewable energy? Do they support Obama's efforts to create jobs through public works programs? Those are questions that get little if any debate on this site because virtually everyone on this site supports Obama's efforts in those areas. I think if you would ask some of the people that you consider "deadenders" about these sorts of issues you might find that many of them probably are more supportive of Obama on many things than you may realize.
