Lots of people are undecided about this election, like me. The tendency, when we see inacurate mean spirited comments is to correct the statements... a tendency driven by simple human decency.

The problem the extremists have is not that they support their candidate strongly, that would be good ... but that they drive every decent person to the other side of the table in these discussions. The problem decent fair minded folk have is that there are extremists on both sides who are doing it.

For example: There are extremists who are racially prejudiced and don't like Obama for that reason. Then there are extremists who say if you criticise Obama it is an insult to African Americans. They end up justifying each other and we end up just going, pshawwww.
