Reply #49: I will vote Democratic in November...

...and I support OFA because I really think most of Obama's policies are good AND because I think we need an intelligent thinker in the White House. President Obama is that. But I do understand educators who feel differently. I know several who worked for him on the ground who aren't sure about doing that now.

You said, "I was raised in a very solid Democratic family and was taught it was my duty to speak out when I disagreed with elected officials." So was I. Sometimes one has a duty to speak out...as teachers are now. There is nothing wrong with that. In fact I believe it is patriotic to do so.

Eventually, I hope others will come to understand that. It's one of the reasons I still support Senator Kerry.

For the most part, I think we Democrats are still on the same team...just with a few 'family squabbles.' :7 :hi:
