1. Why is that? The Clinton SOS thing?
Don't see it really. A little granted but not a lot.

3. I don't see much of it either.
I suspect it's happening less than some drama queens would like.

4. Most people accept it. I'm still just happy that Obama is President, overall--
not a fan of Hillary, but I can ignore her--she's Obama's employee.

5. agree
People can have reservations and critique about it but still be at peace and supportive overall...without head explosions going on...

11. Not hardly. I suspect that you've missed quite a few rancorous
threads.

12. fair enough, could be.
Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 12:28 PM by ErinBerin84
I try to avoid flamebait threads on both sides. But I still think it's overstated.

She's on the team.

2. I like everyone on DU. Every last one.
Even those who post "DU heads popping" threads provide an element of entertainment.

22. Heeeeeyyyy!
How nice to hear from you, Beacool!

We're feeling great, and I'm feeling a fine four to eight years coming down the pike, and just in time!

How about yourself? :hi:

PS: (with the likes of me do you ever feel like a puppy and a kitten who got over their differences and became buddies?)

I hope that we do have a fine 4 to 8 years, the country can't handle another disastrous administration.

15. Just whose heads are exploding?
Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 12:39 PM by YOY
Seriously, I have yet to see anyone seriously upset about this.

I'm not upset or disappointed. She'll do fine there.

17. Do you need a sarcasm sticker?
Edited on Mon Dec-01-08 12:46 PM by YOY
I said she'll do fine as SOS. I don't really see any "Hillary hate" in that one.

Seriously, the only thing I see exploding is you.

23. If heads are popping, it's because their owners have been living under a rock
for the past few weeks.

People have had plenty of time to make their peace, react, get it out of their system or whatever since they floated the "rumors" ahead of time. I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that the Obama administration did it deliberately to keep more focus on the business at hand by the time he was ready to announce this particular section of his cabinet.

Jan. 20 can't get here fast enough. It's time to start fixing a lot of sh*t!
