CAUTION: Boring Troll-Free Diary!

(Cross-posted at MyDD)

Beware, I have no food available here to feed the trolls! I'm not speculating over who Obama's VP will be. I'm not mulling over the details of Obama's recent trip abroad. Believe it or not, I'm not even playing the guessing game over whether or not Hillary wants a roll call vote at the convention.

No, I can offer you no flames. But hopefully, you'll still take a look at what I do have to offer. I promise you'll like it. ;-)

I know that talking about growing the grassroots may sound boring at times. I know that discussing what to do to elect more Democrats may sound dull at times. I know flame wars about controversial topics may look sexier, but in the end that doesn't accomplish anything. Grassroots activism, on the other hand, does.

I hate having to sound like a broken record, but I'm really getting sick & tired of fighting the same old flame wars over the same old garbage. I'd rather be talking with you about these great Democratic candidates that need our help to win. I'd rather be telling you about amazing people like this guy who are getting out and doing something to make a change. I'd rather be contributing in a positive way than being a part of the same old negative BS.

So can we all please move on from the old fights that were supposed to end two months ago and get back to working together to help Democrats win? Pretty please? It was difficult for me to move on at first, but I ultimately did it. And if I can do it, so can you.

Ahh! Now doesn't that feel better? That's right. Just release the negative energy. Do something positive. Let's forget the trolls and get back to winning some elections! :-)
