126. I see most of the criticism coming from people who were/are avid Obama supporters during the primary
And after the primary.

I disagree with Obama on a number of issues. I disagree with just about every Politician with a few issues. But that doesn't mean I won't support them.

People need to learn the difference between attacking the candidate and leveling criticism at a particular issue you may disagree with.

People also need to understand that not everyone is passionately in love with the Nominee in the same way you might be. Many of us are voting for him because he is the Dem and he isn't McCain. I'm not going to start yelling Gobama from the rooftops. However I will be casting my vote for him and probably doing some work locally.

I supported 3 candidates before Obama. He doesn't inspire me, but I've never bashed ANY Dem on these boards (unlike many of the people currently bitching about anyone disagreeing with Obama) including him.

This post has definitely highlighted a few more who need to go on the iggy -list.
