An encouraging article appears on FR about GOP turnout and the first replies are all negative.

This is what FR has become, a depressing, defeatist website.

Hey, now, I resent that remark!

I have been making negative and depressing posts since I first signed up here almost ten years ago.

I will not stand for being labeled a pessimist-come-lately.

I agree with what you’re saying and have been noting that FR is killing their own...and the Dems just keep laughing.

Well unless you are smoking dope the reality is that all this happy happy joy joy stuff is usually just a feel good moment before it does a 180 and bites us in the @ss.

Until I see it with my own eyes it will remain doom and gloom.

........I’m going to agree with you that there is “too much” negativeness and that it is seemingly always the first automatic reaction of too many too often. And, I will Agee that “some” are “defeatist”.

I don’t agree on indicting the “whole website” as negative and defeatist though.
