This game is called "What I like About Your Candidate". The rules are simple, but I expect many MyDD readers may find it really challenging.

I was expecting this thing to devolve into yet another food fight, but with one notable exception (you know who you are), everybody played the game wonderfully! As a reward, make yourselves your favorite dessert, and go watch "Heidi", or "Pollyanna", or your favorite sappy, feel-good movie.

And to the one person who just never seemed to figure out the rules, it's OK. I'm sure if you work very hard, you can one day say something nice about an adversary and really mean it. Remember: bunnies! rainbows! candy canes! ponies!

1) Just leave a comment describing one thing (or more!) that you like, admire, respect about your candidate's primary opponent - soon to be GE ally.

1a) You can also say something nice about the opponent's supporters if you want.

2) Try to avoid back handed compliments, such as "I admire candidate X's courageous yet losing battle against halitosis." Go for something real, from the heart.

3) If you can't say something nice, go spew your bile in some other diary.

4) Insults and snark about the media and Republicans are fine, but try to do it in the context of saying something nice about your primary opponent.

I'll go first, below the fold ...

At a recent Pennsylvania rally, Obama was quoted as saying:

If there is one thing......I can't.....stand for..,.. it's.......do..gs......and....bu....nny. ....rab....bits.

He's clearly pandering to cat owning elitists (that probably drink Chai Tea and shop at Trader Joes) here.  Snubbing good dog and bunny loving Americans is not a very American way to win an American election.

Hatred for God's most loving creatures is definitely going to hurt him in the GE, because you can't win an American election on cat owners votes alone, and beyond that, isn't an American president supposed to serve ALL pets, not just elitist pets.

I am currently an Obama supporter, but thinking of switching to Hillary because I can not abide his hatred for all things innocent and small.  Actually, I just switched in the space between sentences.  

GO HILLARY!!!

As many have noticed, I did a recent diary about my disgust for the filth spewing forth from the list of recommended diaries.  Perhaps what is most troubling is the number of ditto-heads who'll line up and recommend these diaries, half of which are about the same thing and saying the same thing, the other half of which are about something from the day before, etc etc etc.

It's redundant, unoriginal, and reads worse than the stuff I see on http://www.redstate.com .   It has led me to a conclusion;  Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton has her very own right wing, and here on MyDD we have found the safe haven for these extremists.
