There is an effort to equate those of us who opposed the massive crime that was the Iraq War, and who do not want someone who supported it, as the only choice Democrats have for the WH, to Freepers.
I personally don't understand why anyone cares what Freepers 'think' or say.
But the not so subtle attempt to equate Democrats of principle with Freepers shows that there are those who DO care what Freepers have to say.
Like you, I form my opinions based on what facts we know, not on what Freepers have to say.
And I cannot understand why any Democrat would do otherwise.
I do not want Hillary Clinton to run. I am afraid that if she does, a Republican will win.
Too many Democrats, in opposition to what Freepers thought by the way, will not forget the fact that when she was faced with one of the most critical decisions of her political career, she failed and as a result, the disaster that is Iraq is still ongoing, with more than a million human beings dead.
Such a person is likely to make another such terrible decision.
We have good Democrats who got it right the first time, THAT is what leadership requires.
So, I wouldn't worry about the effort to emotionally manipulate people to vote for someone they do not wish to vote for.
If they have to go that far, all I can say is, 'maybe you should change your mind about who you are supporting'.
