Obambots and HillBots

[TheDeathadder]

Short and sweet. Let's not call each other this or other names. I support HRC. I can get my points across though without insults. I want a Democratic President over a Repub. Hell...call them all the names you want. In the end though HRC and Obama are alot closer than the Dems and the Repubs are. I support HRC 100% and to the end, but if it comes down to Obama vs a Repub...it's a no-brainer.

And stop saying you won't vote and stay home if your candidate doesn't win the primary season. That's one of the biggest problems this country has. No shows on election day is a real killer.

5. thank you - glad to be here!!

I used to come here back in 2004...and alot of the same useless hate went on and it just didn't seem to get us anywhere...and those damn Repubs were so united against us, you know?

4. LOL

hadn't heard that one before.

But I agree wholeheartedly with the OP. In fact, I wish there were a rule against using such terms, since people seem unable to prevent themselves from using them.

In fact, I believe there IS a rule against it - don't use broadbrushed attacks. I wish there was a directive to enforce it.

7. forget rules

common sense tells us that divided we fall, right? Again, I'm with HRC to the end. There's there about Obama that I'm not thrilled about, but I'm going to let debate and my primate vote decide. I just don't have time for name calling and it's ALL that I'm seeing. Not to mention posts of people saying they will stay home if their candidate doesn't win. Repubs keeps repubs in the White House because they stick together. We need to stick together!! Whoever wins the primary, that's who I am voting for.

Though I love HRC, about two years back I really hated her, and two years before that (and for over a decade) I loved her. I voted for Kucinich, Gore, and Bill Clinton. I know these people are humans. I'm not always going to love them or hate them. What I do know is I am a democrat first. I don't want Obama to win, I want HRC, but I won't destroy Obama or belittle his followers. If he wins the primary I will vote for him.

This reply became a ramble, but again, the short and sweet - WE NEED TO STICK TOGETHER - the primary will get ugly and debate will get heated, but in the end we want a democrat in the white house. That's going to be hard to do if we all hate each other and are calling each Bush or racists.
