:hug:
It may be a long night and I know how I would feel if the tide was turned.
If anyone rubs it in or acts like asses please know that not all of us are childish and dickish and most of us like your Guy we just chose the other for our own reasons.
Keep fighting for Sen.Clinton it isn't over yet.
This is a nasty process hell politics are nasty.Maybe thats why so many nasty people are drawn toward it? Hell I dunno
In the end a candidate will emerge and if by chance it is your guy.
I will support her as mine.
Have the best night you can..
Tomorrow we fight again.
:toast:
(edited to capitalize Clinton)

14. I think we're outnumbered
:)

Seriously, I have always said that I will vote for Obama if he emerges as our candidate. My differences with him are mendable, my differences with the GOP are not.

29. Great post!
I'm an Obama supporter, and I feel the same about HRC.

Let's face it, either of the two beats the daylights out of what the Dark Side has to offer.

Of course I mean that to the Hillary supporters who are not on ignore... but then again, after the purge today, it will be less of those. ;)

And I am sure a few on our side earned an ignore from the Clinton supporters as well.
It does feel better since the purge.

34. Indeed! Good thread, good post.
Go easy on the Hillary people, everybody! Their hearts are in The Good Place, too: getting a DEMOCRAT back into OUR White House.

Very good of you guys to post this.

I voted for Obama in the California primary - admittedly with some mixed feelings because I SO DESPERATELY want to vote for a woman for president, and I think Hillary Clinton would be a terrific choice. But I went for longterm strategic interests instead. I'm still a little touchy about it, because my heart still belongs to Hillary even though my head says Barack (and I let my head rule on February 5th).

So the sentiments in here are GREATLY appreciated!!!

:applause:

it's a few that dominate the boards that give each candidates supporters a bad name.

Kudos to you for taking the high road. I for one will try to remember your words when I post in the future, and even when I "react" when reading posts without responding, which is the case most of the time.

and with that in mind, when some piece of shit n00b with 14 posts calls Hillary a bitch/harpie/etc, be reasonable enough to recognize them as stupid shithead n00bs. I go after the anti-Obama ones, too.

I think the majority of Obama's supporters are decent people; it's the minority that tries to drown them out.

Whatever happens, we'll all join hands in November to defeat McCain and take back our country!

36. Clinton's a great senator and a great leader in our party.
I'm not voting for her yet, but she could still win the nomination. If she does, I'll fight heart, soul, and pocket book for her in the fall.

Anyone who can't say that about both our candidates ain't a real Democrat.

65. I have hope for our country
and I think its worth fighting for. Its worth far more than choosing a Dem candidate like a contest on American Idol.

And its worth far more than watching it die a little more under 4 more years of GOP control.

Obama supporters, wake up. Love your country. Back a candidate who will win. Our country is worth fighting for.
