It is the fakest conspiracy out there. I live in the most conservative city w/ a pop. 250,000+ and Molly Ivans best explains it. On Bill Clinton: "If left to my own devices, I'd spend all my time pointing out that he's weaker than bus-station chili. But the man is so constantly subjected to such hideous and unfair abuse that I wind up standing up for him on the general principle that some fairness should be applied. Besides, no one but a fool or a Republican ever took him for a liberal."

Over here, I end up defending Obama over outrageous lies, ridiculous conspiracies, false claims... Well, they embrace they Republican party but they've been bought a long time ago & keep pushing 1920's tax cuts & laissez faire policies & they themselves mock global warming claims. I end up debating settled issues, plus it is very racist here.

I should note, Hillary supporters back in 2008 used Rezko and how many times he voted "present", a search would easily find those threads.
