73. Cricket, do you think it's a good idea to ignore
Edited on Wed May-14-08 02:56 PM by jonestonesusa
reasonable discussions of points of difference on how we see the candidates?

And do you think that flagrant flamebait deserves attention?

Plus, it seems to me that far more than 50% of the posters on DU at this point are Obama supporters, who have offered plenty of reasons why they support Obama and why they oppose Clinton. But if their thoughtfully written posts with references to articles and evidence are going to be ignored, I think the OP is right that it's a waste of time to engage in a non-discussion.

I'm working my way toward ignoring Clinton dead-enders, but if there's anything I see in favor of Clinton that makes me think differently about her or offers new evidence for her viability, I'm all for that. But if posts are mostly meant for denial, distraction, and pointless argument, I think the OP gives good advice: Obama supporters, move on!
