I would like to thank the Obama supporters today for their words of support
to the Edwards clan. :grouphug:

The Hillary supporters are starting to fill up my iggy list with all of their shitting on the Edwards' threads today.

Interesting dynamic.

No -- I am not moving to Camp Obama -- just noting the dynamic. It sickens me.

If only they would give it a rest for 24 hours. It must be a maturity thing.

1. Hmmmm -- even though I posted a very heartfelt thread to Senator Edwards and his DFU supporters
Oh boy.

16. And I respect that you do that -- even on the rare occasions I don't agree
You keep it real, as my nephew says.

2. Many Clinton supporters have been good, too, and a few Obamites have been jerks.
Neither side has a monopoly on being good guys or being bad guys.

7. When I say that I'm sorry, and that I too am shocked by this...
I mean it.

Edwards has such wonderful and passionate supporters. And I know that you all must really be hurting right now.

I can't say anything other than "I'm sorry".

10. Really, I've found the Hillary supporters to be much nicer. I have 30 Obamans on my ignore but you
can still tell how nasty these particular people are.

My threads appear like so:

IGNORE
You know, why don't you just give Edwards supporters a break. Geez.
IGNORE
Could you be any nastier?
IGNORE
No, I don't think you have the right to put an axe in the forehead of the non-Hopeful.
IGNORE
"Get Hope or Die, Motherfucker" is inappropriate. I'm alerting.

12. I haven't had an opportunity to react, and don't want to start a thread,
but I was shocked and saddened when I heard the news. To all the Edwards supporters, I want you to know that I'm very sorry. I'm not sending 'condolences', because as John and Elizabeth have said, they will be fine. I do hope he will find a position in someone's cabinet where he can implement many of the good, important ideas he has.

15. I just fear two things.
First, that his message will be lost in the media blitz of mush ado about nothing (handshake-gate? please).

Second, that this is somehow connected to Elizabeth's cancer.

Thanks for the support. :hug:
