When are we going to catch on that personal attacks only end up helping the opponent?
Enough with the "Shillary," "Hillarity" and other pet names, nicknames and petty insults. There is plenty to criticize in terms of her record, her positions, her campaign and tactics without using attacks that ultimately lose. Insults just make us, AND BERNIE, look bad. Leave the personal insults unsaid, even if you think them. They only result in legitimate points getting lost in the noise.
Please stop.

(113,065 posts)They show up every election and after they feel safe they start showing themselves with their increasing aggressiveness and the RW propaganda they cite clearly apparent in their posts. No matter how they misdirect to other sites and links, when you track it back it obvious it was crafted by the RW's professional propagandists.
I see them on both sides - and have been trying to warn others here not to fall for the propaganda they are catapulting. I can't warn HRC group, because they blocked me early on. They let their touchiness get in the way of common sense.
