I realize we all have and had our personal favorite candidates running for the Democrat nomination.

But there is something really wrong with the way Democrats have been treating Hilary Clinton. First the mainstream media has been bashing her to no end and because we like a different candidate we have been allowing them to get away with it. Then we turn around with almost hate talk about her ourselves.

We are playing right into the hands of the biased media and Repupublicans.

Hilary has done a lot for our party and the progressive movement and no matter if we like it or not she probably will win the nomination.

I just hope we don't do so much damage that she wont win in Nov. if she does win the nomination.

Its one thing to argue about people in our own Dem family but to allow the mainstream media to get away with their negative talk on Hilary is wrong. We need to defend her and call the media out.

Just so you know if I could pick the next President I would pick Edwards but this negative talk about Hilary really bugs me.

I just think we need to be careful about the stuff we say because we might not win back the White house if we cause too much damage in our on party...which is what the Republicans are hoping for.
