(46,179 posts)I was one of the very few DUers who equally opposed both Obama and HRC, and said so at every opportunity. It didn't stop each camp from trying to fight with me about their opposition, lol. BO's people regularly bashed me as a Puma, regardless of accuracy.
Obama and HRC were tied on the bottom of my list of primary choices. Of course, they were the only two left standing by the time my primary rolled around in late May. Since the nomination, and my state, had already been called for Obama, I cast my vote for HRC. Not because I wanted her to be the nominee. It was a simple protest vote.
I continued to hope, after the horrifically ugly and very close primary war, to see a less divisive candidate nominated at the convention. Yes, a futile hope. I knew it at the time, but supported that small group of DUers calling for Gore.
What will I do if the Democratic Party shoves her down my throat in '16? I sure as hell won't be voting for her in my primary, for whatever that is worth.
