(45,251 posts)I posted on board then where Clinton supporters got so ugly about Obama, it was not even funny.
One board owner had been a Republican until Reagan ran. He turned her off, so she turned rabidly Dem (smart move). Loved Bubba and John Edwards. (She was from one of the Carolinas, don't recall which. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Mentioning only because her two favorite Dems were also Southerners.)
During the 2008 primary, she kept posting links to No Quarter, a website by someone claiming to be a Hillary supporter. Once racist and pro PUMA post after another. (Someone pm'd me the No Quarter guy was really a Republican. I personally have no clue.)
When Hillary conceded, that board own went back to Republican, even changing her stance on Dimson 180. She got incredibly ugly about Democratic politicians and Democratic posters on her board. Eventually, she locked her board so that you could not post there without prior clearance from her.
From what I've read on DU, DU was no picnic then, either.
