Is there anything HRC could do that would make her supporters take the blinders off?

[joeprogressive]

I mean, talk about a cult. If Obama did half of what HRC has done as far as negative attacks, I would have abandoned him long ago for the next best Dem. candidate. The HRC supporters seem like the cultists in their blind allegiance.

I will vote for her in the GE if the impossible happens and she wins the nomination; but she is hurting her own cause on so many levels.

[dysfunctional press]

1. drop out?

:shrug:

we'll talk on wednesday...

[joeprogressive]

3. I think that is the only thing but many are claiming they will sit out the GE.

Not truly Democrats at all.

[liberal N proud]

2. I am fed up with it

The type of post this place is seeing for the last couple of week have just been getting more and more hateful. More and more freeperlike.

I am going to have to stay away from this negativity for a while and let the crazies have their way. This forum isn't the supportive place it once was. Too much hate for me.

[cali]

11. um, you should definitely NOT talk about what's hateful

after your post blaming Cindy Sheehan for her son's death.

[liberal N proud]

17. DAMN IT

I DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

If you are making accusations, you should back them up with some fact!

I don't know what comment I have made that has you thinking that I have ever said anything about Cindy Sheehan.

You have accused me of this three times today with absolutely nothing to substantiate it. NOTHING!



NOTHING!

[liberal N proud]

18. Three accusations with out any substantiating evidence

I am still waiting for that evidence.

[liberal N proud]

23. 3 Hit and runs in one morning

I am still waiting to find out where I did the things you have said I did.

25. Cali, this is NOT the poster that posted that.

The poster that posted that was proudtobeliberal.

30. dupe

[liberal N proud]

31. Thanks

I appreciate the clarity on this.

I may make stupid statements occasionally but never hateful.

[cali]

32. I sincerely apologize

I got you confused with another poster. You didn't deserve that. Mea culpa. Again, I'm sorry.

[liberal N proud]

33. Accepted

[leftofcool]

4. Please elaborate

on how you believe that Hillary Clinton has such a messianic complex that her supporters should be called cultists?

Left of Cool

[joeprogressive]

6. She has been called out on numerous examples of trying to game

the system, negative attacks, and the biggest foreign policy disaster in history but her ardent supporters spin it in ridiculous ways.

[leftofcool]

9. This does not explain "cultist."

[MethuenProgressive]

5. Obama Swiftboated the Clintons on Race, and you give him a pass?

Another flamerbaiter thread.

[joeprogressive]

7. It's like pointing out republican corruption and you have the other

side holding up William Jefferson and saying it evens out. Obama on the whole has run a much more positive campaign. HRC's negativity has backfired on her.

[joeprogressive]

8. Whatever, deal with the facts and quit whining every time you have

to face the truth. The HRC supporters are more thin skinned than their candidate.

[Tarc]

14. Nice dodge there O-Bot. Some of us happen to take being called an "Uncle Tom"

as a serious slur.

[NorthernSpy]

27. funny how ALL of Hillary's black supporters just happen to post on DU...

What are the odds?


:eyes:

[MonkeyFunk]

10. And I ask the same about Obama supporters

You guys give him a pass for absolutely everything, and slam Clinton for every fault, real or imagined. It's nuts.

[TwilightGardener]

12. No. Her supporters are like Bush's 30-percenters. And they like her tactics--the

nastier or more frantic her campaign, the more they think it shows that she has "the right stuff".

[Tarc]

13. "Hey Mr. Pot, allow me to introduce you to Mr. Kettle"

[mattclearing]

15. This reasoning was pretty lame when the Hillary people used it. n/t

[Dogmudgeon]

16. I guess that's irony, right?

It's where you take one of your own faults and turn it around on those who point it out -- like Conservatives saying that secularism is a religion, or Lou Dobbs claiming to be protecting the interests of the Mexican poor.

It would be a lot easier for us to see the grievous errors of our ways and repent if Team Obama at DU (TODU) was able to actually point to something that was an HRC blunder other than when MSNBC says so -- like all those posts proclaiming Hillary's lack of ethics and truth. From reading the TODU case, you would think that Hillary was a beast from Hell just because some mad prophet from the 11th century (or 1993) said so.

If Hillary were to say "it looks like it will rain tomorrow" and the sun comes out instead, there would be a loud chorus of accusations calling her a liar. So, yeah, we've been blinded -- by thousands of boys crying "wolf!" and giggling when the cameras arrive.

--p!

[Indenturedebtor]

19. Oh please

I think that most of us here watch Cspan and also saw every single debate as well as a TON of campaign rallies for both of them. Many of us have recieved the hatemail her team has put together, and if all of us were drooling over MSNBC we wouldn't be here on this series of tubes getting our news.

Now this thread is total and utter flamebait, but HRC has no one to blame for her tactics but herself. TV News has certainly picked it up whenever she does something hateful dirty and stupid, but she's doing plenty of that stuff without their help.

"Change you can Xerox" etc etc etc. Her tactics are playing a HUGE role in her fall from "inevitability".

I for one have never seen a presidential candidate get boo'd in a debate! Twice in a row no less... painful.

[Dogmudgeon]

26. Looks like I hit a nerve.

You better hope that the confirmation of the Canadian story turns out to be incorrect.

And I've seen several presidential candidates get booed, even Gore. The press just never gloated over it before.

--p!

[Raffi Ella]

20. what a fucking joke of a post.

Go drink some more kool aid,you'll feel better.

[BlackVelvet04]

21. roflmao........

an Obama supporter accusing someone else of having blinders on. Oh, the irony of it all.

[SeaLyons]

22. This is the funniest

post....an Obama supporter saying "take the blinders off". OMG!!!!! What a joke!!!!

[TexasObserver]

24. Fortunately, Hillary's demos will get smaller each month.

This is her last shot at the presidency, so once we bury her presidential ambitions, she's done.

[DemGa]

28. Obama used the right-wing machine against Clinton. Period.

It's hard to believe anyone can even have the nerve to claim ANYTHING about Clinton negative "attacks."

Obama used negative perceptions created by right-wing slander i.e., Hillary is "polarizing and divisive" against a fellow Democrat.

Obama uses not only "negative"; this sham Obama uses treachery!

[LostinVA]

29. I'm tired of YOUR nasty OPs about DU Clinton supporters

Hopefully, THIS one will get locked, too.

All you want to do is call out and flame other DUers who don't agree with you.

[rug]

34. Yes. Appear on the same stage with Donnie McClurkin.

[adigal]

35. I just heard her say she and McCain have experience

while Obama does not. I am really dismayed - how far will she go to win, or if she doesn't win? Will she endorse McCain? I think the Clintons have lost it - they just are desperate, and I feel badly for her, but at the same time, this type of talk angers me so much that I may support a primary challenge to her as senator if she doesn't win the nomination.

[apocalypsehow]

36. Quit. But even then their ongoing, toxic nastiness would likely pollute every thread for awhile.

n/t.

[backscatter712]

37. Even if she eats a baby on CNN,

the HillaryIs44 shills infesting DU-P will continue to support her by spewing toxic filth.

38. I Say The

Same to blind Obama supporters.
