What in the hell is going on here? [View all]

Here at DU, that is.

I swear it has become a slimmy pit similar to free republic. The anti Clinton venom is disgusting.

I really don't understand it. I tend to hope it is a minority of DUers who will leave or hide after the nomination.

It's really nasty. I had no idea that so many here absolutely hate Clinton. My god, this feels like the US congress!
