Do you HATE the candidate you're not supporting?

[Seen the light]

Poll question: Do you HATE the candidate you're not supporting?

Simple question. Clinton supporters, do you actually hate Obama? Obama supporters, do you actually hate Clinton?

[Nitrogenica]

1. I hate Rovian Republican-style election campaigns.

[Kierkegaard]

3. Ditto

n/t

[sueragingroz]

18. me too.

And by rovian - I mean that he is the puppetmaster behind all of the mess that is happening in the democratic party.

I firmly believe that.

This smells just too much of him.

[peacebird]

2. I do not HATE Hillary - I just will not vote for her.

[hueyshort]

29. I do not HATE Obama. I just will not vote for a LIAR.

[Birthmark]

4. I'm not supporting either of them.

And I don't hate anyone on the planet. There's a guy on Mars that really pisses me off, but he's a stone-face. How can you NOT hate that?!

[HughMoran]

5. I like both candidates almost equally

I despise the Obama zombie lemmings who can't see beyond the nose on their faces.

[walldude]

22. Well, I'm rubber and you're glue

and anything you say bounces off of me and sticks to you. So there :P

[HughMoran]

23. lol

I don't know why, but I'm almost always shocked when an Obama supporter says something that's not an attack - it's a good ploy as it always gets me off balance :P back atcha :D

[annie1]

26. i was about to "right on!" your first statement. but "right on!" to both. :D

[AlCzervik]

6. i save my hate for Chimp inc.. Do i like many of the campaign tactics being used now---hells no.

[silverweb]

7. Dislike, not hate.

My feelings for Hillary Clinton have become more negative over the past couple of months, as I've observed the way she has conducted herself and her campaign.

I have grown to dislike her more over time, but I certainly don't hate her.

[JohnnyLib2]

8. I do not hate Sen. Obama, but does anyone here believe it?

That part is troubling.

--JL2, Clinton supporter, eventual nominee supporter.

[dchill]

9. No. But I detest her.

[Posteritatis]

10. Option 3: genuinely don't know

..and that bothers me.

[Johnny__Motown]

11. Hate is to strong a word, dislike works

[SunDrop23]

12. No

I don't hate Hillary. Nor do I hate John McCain.
And if the trend of the DU forum is any indication of what's going to happen in November, I should preface that with "President." As in "Nor do I hate President John McCain..."

I can't believe how bad we are imploding.

[grannylib]

13. I'm not always happy about certain things that candidates say or

do, and I don't agree with either of them on ALL the issues (who does??) but I don't hate the one I don't support.
Gotta keep the big picture in mind, not just the campaign process.

[JerseygirlCT]

14. I don't hate her. I find her a huge disappointment. That's sad. nt

[The Traveler]

15. I do not hate Hillary

Not long ago, I posted a rant wherein I asserted I could vote for any of the three (Edwards, Clinton, Obama) with pride.

However, if Hillary does not reject firmly and equivocably certain statements/tactics employed by her supporters and surrogates I will refuse to vote for her.

[dflprincess]

16. I hate the idea I'm going to have to vote for one of them in November

n/t

[Kurt_and_Hunter]

17. Hell no. But I kind of hate his supporters.

[annie1]

27. 2nd. blogosphere obama supporters are one step away from a mob.

[Pushed To The Left]

19. No, I don't hate McCain. I just hate his politics.

As for the primary candidates, Obama is my first choice but I do like Clinton as well. I just wish they would focus their energy in going after McCain rather than each other!

[tyedyeto]

20. I don't 'hate' any candidate. But what I strongly dislike is.......

negative campaigning. In the past, I have voted for some candidates who ran a 'clean' campaign but declined to vote for those who engage in this practice of negativity.

[against all enemies]

21. I used to like her, now I can't stand her.

[alcibiades_mystery]

24. I actually like Hillary Clinton, and think she would be a strong President

Many of her supporters here, however, are monumental assholes. And stupid.

[October]

25. It's the supporters and their hate on these boards...

Nonstop stupidity, anger and hate.

I will support either candidate...

[ourbluenation]

28. The hate is shocking. I truly cannot believe my eyes.

I'm going in the hot tub

out

:cry:
