Reply #5: The Reality You Ought to Face

[NashVegas]

There is a contingent Obama supporters, particularly online, who are so invested in this election that they will shout down and shut down any person who gets up in the public square and says or writes something they feel damages his chances of winning the presidency, and, I suspect, they'll still be around after he does to clamp down on any talk that reflects negatively on that presidency.

Several DUers have had some rough encounters with this group and some good people have been tombstoned as a result.

Now. Take that crowd and combine them with the genuine cultural swell surrounding the candidacy, and understand that some people will genuinely see it as something chilling — misguidedly or otherwise. The GOP is going to play them. How you gonna deal with it?
