Edited on Fri Mar-07-08 01:17 PM by rndmprsn

when he endorses OBAMA.

there's this thing called the "Blind faith in the Clintons syndrome" that is affecting normally sane people.

their slash and burn tactics have filtered down to their lowliest supporters...i guess there's a sucker born every minute.

let the vetting of hillary clinton begin =]

that is all.

2. #1 I don't hate either...#2 Gore probably won't endorse now...

3. They hate Democratic voters.

Caucuses don't count. Primaries in red states and small states don't count. Black people don't count. Young people don't count.

6. Do they also hate MoveOn?

Edited on Fri Mar-07-08 01:22 PM by patrice

I've seen some rude responses to MoveOn's current project organized around recognition of the 5th anniversary of the Invasion and Occupation of Iraq - from Clinton supporters, didn't see any Obama supporters join in.

10. Oh please

Clinton supporters are not all alike.

I don't hate Gore, and would give due credit to Obama if he got his endorsement.

I gave Obama credit when he got Kerry, and I said it was a huge get.

Gore is the one candidate I would have to think twice about if he got into the race instead of Hillary.

12. Wow! You certainly sound completely wacky.

I think most HRC supporters are far more realistic than you think.

I don't hate Olbermann or anyone else...

except maybe Bushites.

I think its more a disappointment than a hate.

I would prefer Clinton because Team Clinton did so well with the economy in the 90s, but I am ANYONE BUT McBUSH at this point.

14. Hate? Disappointed in their recent judgment, but hate?

You are projecting your own hate on to others.

Bush ignored Olbermann's demand that he resign, so now Olbermann has moved on to a new target, he wants Hillary to give up. He'll have the same effect he had on Bush.

16. Very Hippocritical....

Keith takes on everything/everyone wrong in DC for the past few years. Everyone was writing him emails regarding his "Special Comments", calling his the "last real journalist", amongst other wonderful things. Do a search on GD. Now.....When he wants to talk about the truth....many turn on him.

Classy.

Say anything though right?The way the right does just to change the subject and cause a frenzy by the sheer absurdity of statement.

Carry on dividing and conquering the Democratic Party Obama supporter's.

18. hate? we can strongly disagree without hate.

Edited on Fri Mar-07-08 01:22 PM by bigtree

I notice, though, *many Clinton critics here can't seem to speak of her without including some vicious, horrible invective to describe her. I think their reactions show a degree of hatred that I just don't see coming from the majority of Obama critics here. Of course, I'm biased toward Clinton right now, but I don't hate Obama at all. He's a good Democrat, in my opinion, and a gentleman. I'll be happy to support (and defend) him against McCain if he achieves the nomination. And I believe he has the potential to be an excellent president.

19. Is that any different than how Paul Krugman, Joe Wilson, McGovern, RFK Jr etc have been treated?

Both sides have some many assholes to even point fingers is ridiculous at this point.

21. We're talking about DUers right?

You want to throw stones and generalize one side when your side has it own fair share of assholes.

And you get mad when its pointed out. :shrug:

26. I Don't Hate Anyone

I've had nothing but praise for Dean.

Disappointed with KO, but I've never been a member of the "Brigade" in the first place. Heavily opinionated, partisan broadcasters are showmen, first of all.

I haven't paid any attention to MoveOn since a) their members overwhelmingly went for Dean and they did nothing to help his campaign and b) I noticed they had no mechanism for the average Joe to email them back, no message boards.

Gore has enough class to know better than to publicly demand Hillary get out of the ring. As I believe Dean does, as well.

28. Hillary has placed her own ambition ahead of the good of the Democratic party.

She will not show her stinky tax info and White House records to Democratic voters.

She says she will disclose only if she is the nominee.

So she would give us a compromised candidate just to get the nomination.

Disgusting. Sad that more people can't see her for what she is - a lying, corrupt, power-hungry politician.

The blindly loyal Hillary supporters are fools and will sacrifice the Democratic party and all of our greatest heroes on the altar of Hillary.

30. MoveOn's error was not that they chose to endorse Obama it was that...

they chose to endorse any candidate and then use the money and mailing addresses of all its members to support that one candidate.
