Thank you for this!

Please recognize that most of us here at DU that support Obama become mentally hoarse from defending him here against a rabid but very vocal minority. After a while, we start to let the obvious bullshit slide and speak up less frequently.

The vast majority of progressives understand what "progressive" means and also understand that the race is run one step at a time.

Again, thank you!!
