Would you post what you post here on your candidates forum on their website?
If you knew your candidate would read what you post - would it be just like you post here?

Do you think your candidate would be proud of how you voice your support for him/her on DU?

This is a serious question.

Personally, I think both candidates would be embarrassed. BOTH of them.

3. Au contraire. 1. Obama's website doesn't allow RW trolls like this one does, so no need to
defend our candidate against vile RW smears there. 2. Hillary encourages this vitriol. Listened to a conference call recently? Been to Hillary is 44 or Hillary Clinton Forum lately? 3. Obama has no "spinoff" sites.

9. It's not what I think
Edited on Tue May-27-08 06:01 PM by BellaLuna
it's what would your candidate think of how you handle this.

on edit: I didn't blame one side or the other in my OP. There's plenty of crazy stuff on both sides.

10. I don't need a nanny. Maybe you agree with Geraldine Ferraro's comments.
So go ask Hillary why she hasn't denounced Ferraro's comments.

12. LOL
There's quite the reach there - which is exactly what I'm talking about.

BOTH sides jump to wild conclusions over a simple question or comment. You have taken my OP and turned it as a personal attack on me saying I agree with Ferraro's racist comments. Is that really a rational response to wondering if people on BOTH SIDES would be so negative on their candidates site?

8. Yes, but I might dress better while doing it.

I'm not sure why anyone would post anything here they wouldn't want posted on a candidate's web site but you're right... It's those *other* posters. :::giving a hard stare through the screen:::

Shame on you. May the fickle finger of fate give you a clintonian waggle.

Harumph.

18. I'm posting to the internet, not writing in my diary.
And, btw, other people's embarrassment is their problem.

20. I usually post just to correct points that
are wrong. Falsehoods (lies) that are proven to be such should be confronted. I do try to keep mostly civil though.

So for the most part I would post like that anywhere. I am much more confrontational at other places where I have been posting for years and know the people better (as an agnostic, certain religion forums are prime targets).

23. This is a voice as a whole.
Is there any problem with that?

Clinton hears our voice, and she hears it so loud, she thinks it is coming from Obama himself. This voice is saying - drop out Hillary - it is time to - drop out Hillary, and don't take it to the convention.

I think Clinton has a problem with this voice. I think she would be one who would like to cease this voice.
