General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: Regarding Hillary Clinton [View all]H2O Man
(73,536 posts)We should be discussing all of those things. I don't believe that "trolls" are preventing that, be the few here be "hidden" among the pro- or anti-Clinton forces.
I do recognize that there are a couple of pro-Clinton groups here who have absolutely made up there mind. These include a group who supported her in 2008, and some who support her now because, with President Obama nearing the end of his term, she is probably going to win any possible primary, and may have the best chance in the general election. Likewise, there are many who oppose her, because of some of her policies, or because they do not think she could win the general election.
There are also many DUers who either haven't made up their minds this early, or favor one person, but are willing to consider all options. It's not a coincidence that these folks are not the ones who are poisoning and tempting to derail meaningful discussions. That's not to imply that anyone who is pro- or anti-Hillary is among the intolerant forum members. But our intolerant friends tend to come from one or the other of those groups.
