Reply #45: Carry on. This is the exact reason why your candidate is losing.

I see threads or live-blogging of Obama events and rallies. I see discussion of his speeches and policy proposals. I see constructive criticism of his health care plan. I see people participating in the democratic process by getting off their asses and getting on the ground to talk to voters.

In general, I see that from one side.

And from another, all I hear is the same echo of complaining and this vitriol spewed out of some false sense of entitlement. You can't win on the issues. Voters didn't fall for the gas tax pander, they don't want mandates to enrich private insurance companies, they desire to dialogue with our enemies in the interest of peace, they want an open government that doesn't keep everything secret, they want a judicial system that punishes instead of rewards government officials and others for breaking the law, they want someone who will tell them the damn truth, nothing but the truth so help us God, goddess, buddha, whatever you want to call it. And they don't think most lobbyists are good people.

That's the truth. That's why Obama has won more states, more pledged delegates, more superdelegates, more Representatives, more Senators, more Governors, more of EVERY DAMN THING THAT REALLY COUNTS.

You want to be in denial? Fine. But when we're at the convention (and I'm sure as hell going to Denver) and the rules committee, with a majority of OBAMA SUPPORTERS, seats the Florida and Michigan delegations with a penalty, she will still be the loser. And you can thank yourself for her loss. Because instead of selling your candidate, instead of getting out and going door to door, instead of DIALOGUING and being honest with your own candidate (cause see, we Obama supporters don't agree with everything his team says or does and WE LET HIM KNOW because HE is accountable to US and he KNOWS THIS), you accept every piece of tripe Mark Penn pushed to you like it was manna.

So keep it up. Keep obsessing over Hillary's opposition, because apparently she has nothing POSITIVE going for her. And while you're doing that, while your candidate is waiting to entertain the superdelegates, Obama's fierce urgency of now will have him going to the House to meet them where they are. Keep posting negative nonsense about Obama, while your candidate is throwing a celebration she can't afford in West Virginia, Obama will be pocketing Oregon, South Dakota, Montana, and PUERTO RICO... thanks to those same white, working-class folk that Hillary says won't vote for him.

Please, keep up the good work. We couldn't have come this far without it.
