I agree with your assessment of our current position in the election campaign. While some posters are rankled by the suggestion that they cool it with the criticism of our candidates, IMO it is high time that somebody state the obvious. Any criticism we make against our side can and will be used against Bush/Cheney. Further, there is nothing adverse to be said that can't wait until after the election. Edwards and Kerry both have used the names of McCain, Hagel, and several other Republicans in all three debates to buttress their argument that even members of the President's party don't agree with him on one or more aspects of the war. I certainly do not see your suggestion as a suppression of self expression of any kind. It is a tactic that the other side uses to their advantage.
