It will bite you in the ass.


Some of you are as nasty as Freepers.


UNBELIEVABLE!


I'm gonna vote Dem NO MATTER WHO WINS. But I know many people are so turned off by Obama's nasty supporters that they will stay home. They weren't true Dems anyway, just like all the nasty Obama supporters who wouldn't vote for Hillary (who won't win).

2. Obama's supports are the most arrogant out there.
They do not realize that HRC supporters count to.
I am greatly offended by all, including the MSM who have put so much more value on Obama's voters than all others.

18. they count to - what? 10? 2? 100? 1996 in Bosnia?
MSM has been and continues to be in the clinton camp. CNN is a perfect example.

4. I care
And I have been saying for a while that Obama supporters need to stop alienating you guys. So I guess I'm one of the 20% who feels that way...just wanted you to know one Obama supporter cares.

8. 80% of Clinton supporters on this board don't give a crap about the party or the country.
If Hillary loses (and she has lost) they're more likely to say they won't vote at all, or will vote for a 3rd party or for F'CKN JOHN McCAIN than support the Democratic nominee Barack Obama.

Hillary is the past. Barack is the future. Don't blame us if the Hilbots can't handle the 21st century.

Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 06:02 PM by lark
His arrogance, divisiveness, sexism/racism and support of undemocratic preferences (disenfranchisement) will do him in. Hope you all enjoy all war all the time, because that's what your candidate is going to get us.

32. And it doesn't matter to you that none of those charges are true.
And reliable pols say Hillary loses to McCain, while Barack wins.

And at least no one here is bringing up Vince Foster or Gennifer Flowers as reasons not to vote for her.

9. I don't care for the racist and the repubs. It's that simple.
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 05:58 PM by Life Long Dem
Upwards of 95% percent of Hillary supporters are probably not racist. I don't know the percentage, who does?
So that means I like about 95% percent of Hillary supporters!! Just thinking about all the woman!! Woo Hoo!

10. Well, I do care about actual Hillary supporters.
I think there have been quite a few trolls through here though. And a couple, imo, have been here a LONG time. (Just a couple in that category, seriously).

And sometimes even the ones I care about, are a bit hard to take at times. I'm only human. :)

11. A Democrat winning is more important
than this party fighting. I'm personally for Obama but I have stated that whoever the nominee is I will vote for them. It is just to important, we can not survive another 4 yrs of rethugs especially now that cheney visited Saudi Arabia.

20. When I Went to County Convention Recently
believe or not, everybody got along! 65% were Obama people and aside from being louder than the Hillary supporters when the chanting stuff was going on during dem leader speeches, things were fine.

No blood was shed - no ass biting. A good time was had by ALL!

36. I don't see her running again.
What so-called Democrats have said and done to her and Bill is unfortunate and unforgivable. Some of these "Democrats" are the same lot who voted Perot, Nader and other third party losers and are back for their pound of flesh. I hope if Hillary loses she finishes her term in the Senate walks away from politics entirely and never looks back. Same for Bill. After watching this campaign unfold I wish he had never beat GHW Bush and given these "Democrats" another four years of Bush just so they would know what they missed...

But that list will be handy to know who has 2012 motives if the dem is bashed for illogical reasons.

27. The "I won't vote for the candidate with the nasty supporters" is an emotional blackmail tactic
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 06:12 PM by theredpen
It's an attempt to use guilt and shame to change other people's behavior. It's a threat of purely emotional consequences.

Whoever it comes from, and whomever it's directed at, that's what it is.

That's why anyone who claims that the behavior of ________'s supporters will affect their vote in November goes on ignore.

ahh.. let's all have a pity party for them.

Hillary and her supporters have earned the animosity that most Democrats feel towards then, They campaign from the sewer and then whine like little kids when they're called on it.

34. I am an Obama supporter & love to talk smack/shit but I will NEVER vote for McCain.
Even if Hillary somehow becomes the nominee. I don't like her since she started going after Obama while coddling McCain, but if she somehow won, I would definitely vote for her. I get carried away here but just have to think back to what the GOP enablers allowed Bush to get away with over the last 7 years and the way our members were treated prior to taking back the majority in both Houses (Conyers having to hold hearings in a basement, Sensenbrenner the asshole etc. etc.) and I snap back into reality and realize that I'm a Dem 1st and foremost. It will all work out. We will be united one way or the other. We HAVE to be.

35. I have one or two Hillary supporters who are friends of mine
Edited on Mon Mar-24-08 06:29 PM by zulchzulu
They like Hillary for their own reasons yet are who I can debate in reasonable manner. In a recent conversation with one of them, this person was frankly embarrassed by the Hillary Clinton campaign and thought the "Wright Story" was nonsense. She just likes Hillary Clinton as a candidate, but doesn't venomously hate Barack Obama by any means.

When I come here on DU and see some of the Hillary Clinton supporters just being so out there that it's hard to fathom, it makes me wonder if it's the anonymous nature that make people the way they are. It's on all sides and I admit I get a little testy when I see Obama being attacked for what I feel are obscenely stupid reasons.

Do I care about Hillary Clinton supporters? Yes. Do they care about me? Who knows.
