Original message
I propose that my fellow Obama supporters leave GD:P till we have a nominee.
Let the Clinton defenders have the forum. Let 'em think they've got it all wrapped up. Let 'em bicker amongst themselves about their favorite fear tactics.

We have more important things to do. I propose that each of us devote at least half of the time we'd otherwise spend here doing phone banking, or some other important volunteering, for Obama.

Who's with me?

NGU.

15. As someone who doesn't support Obama, but wholly opposes Clinton - bad move.
Her supporters will just continue to lie for her (many of them, anyway), and those lies would go unanswered.

Who reads DU? Politics junkies like myself, but also journalists, radio hosts, staffers for various news outlets and blogs and, most importantly, people involved in the Obama campaign itself. They might not post here, but you can bet that they check this site.

..."ignore" is your friend. I can't tell you how much more peaceful it is to turn off those people who contribute nothing to any discussion whatsoever other than continuous non-stop nasty anti-Obama comments and attacks, thread after thread after thread, as if their very lives depended on the next cutthroat comment they can make and how much blood they can shed with it. In any other forum, the argument that you're closing off one side of any discussion, and thereby limiting ideas, would be valid. But not here, not in this toxic atmosphere. There are no ideas from these people, just pure hatred that I'll never understand. The people on my ignore list have absolutely nothing positive to say at all, and I'm the better for it for not having to see that ugly vitriol 24/7.

32. I'm not afraid of their "thoughts"
...I don't want to raise my blood pressure by having to get into a back-and-forth ongoing bloodletting argument. It's not worth it. My sanity takes precedence over "their thoughts." I can't stand that ugliness, so I choose not to see it. There's no shame in using "ignore" - that's what it's there for. And I won't apologize for it. You deal with them your way, I'll deal with them mine, and I'll meet you in the middle.

BTW, I'm a new Obama supporter... I'm not even signed up on his site yet. I'm getting there.

The only way to deal with 'em is to walk away. Tormenting others is their only source of power. If you don't let 'em torment you, they have no power.

BTW, the "bully" in this thread is the one person at DU I have on "ignore," so I guess I'm following your admonition in practice while preaching otherwise in principle. Go figure. :shrug:

The perception war is not insignificant. If we did abandon DU, the New York Times would "notice" it and spin it into a story about Obama's collapsing internet support, which CNN would spin into a full-blown tsunami.

56. My husband said pretty much the same thing...
The primary is wearing on me and he is concerned about me.

He told me to shut off CNN, stop posting on that ridiculous messageboard and forget about the primary
for a while. He said just as you said...Hillary is going to play dirty and deluded for a while, but
Obama will end up winning.

I agree. This is unhealthy. Clinton is going to spend the remainder of her campaign time acting
like a rabid clown on acid---lying, distorting, insisting that some states don't count while others
are sooooo important, attacking, cherry picking, manipulating, cheating--and whatever else she's got
up that drain pipe on her rancid kitchen sink.

Personally, I've had enough. I think it's gotten to the point of being dysfunctional and sick. This
isn't a campaign anymore. It's a vivisection.

I'm considering unplugging the computer and doing fun things--hanging out at old bookstores, shopping,
organizing, jogging, painting.

Thanks for your post...I need to seriously consider taking some time off.

73. Not likely, but I love your phrase about what it would be like
"Let 'em bicker amongst themselves about their favorite fear tactics."

If left on their own, it would probably devolve into

"yeah you're a member of the Penn Cult! He's a marshmellow."

"No I'm going for experience, Bill Clnton."

"But you're all overlooking Lanny Davis!"

This is the second suggestion I've seen today to avoid GD-P and I think I'll take you up on it.

I'm beginning to doubt I have enough room on my ignore list for all the bottom feeders. I see even your post snared a few.

My rule was to put anyone who personally attacked another poster on ignore (since the mods now allow name calling and personal attacks), but I had to break it because even some of my favorite DUers got pulled down into the slime and I didn't want to ignore them. I think you're right, blocking GD-P is the best solution.

82. It's interesting to note that...
...apart from one poster who ended up getting all of his posts deleted, the bullies on this thread are all Clinton defenders telling their fellow Dems, "Good riddance."

On the other hand, the Obama supporters have been civil and reasonable, even when they've disagreed with my premise.

Just an observation.

88. That's a good point... But...
...the valuable-feedback-to-petty-BS ratio is much higher at your local Obama Campaign HQ or Dem Party HQ than it is here. And on the phone banks, you'll be exposing Clinton's nonsense to far more open-minded people than you will find here.

Besides, nobody said we shouldn't lurk, and listen in on what the other side is plotting. Hey, if they think we're gone, they'll let their guard down even more...

99. I'm ALREADY doing this... Great Post!
In fact - our work paid off - we made both TX and OH much MUCH MUCH closer than
they would have been.

Even if there is a re-do in FL and MI - we will make those at least a total wash in
delegates.

Our campaign is just MUCH better organized, funded and run.

Don't worry - no matter what she tries now - it won't matter. Obama is the nominee.

So let's get off of here and GET TO WORK!

And DONATE!

Let them have it all to themselves. No more posting here until we have a nominee. ;)

I've tried Ignore, and all that does is make threads incoherent.

We aren't changing any minds that couldn't be changed by the candidate himself, or by being finally turned off to their candidate through her own actions.

bye-bye GDP for as long as this takes.

155. Yes leave
No matter what excuse you concoct. Leave, leave, leave.
