22. I love many of his superdelegates
including two of the three you mentioned. I just think they chose the wrong candidate is all. Richardson ran a crummy campaign and then chose wrong plus was viscious in doing so, so he isn't my favorite but I love Durbin and Leahy not to mention Kennedy to name three.

37. No, almost all progressive sites are inundated with Obama supporters.
Please don't pretend this or many progressive sites are an even playing field.

I'd be surprised if *every* Hillary supporter on the internet came here it would do much good evening out the playing field.

54. oh the irony
You say this is a Democratic board, and then play Joe McCarthy and smear your opponents as "suspect."

In wouldn't blame anyone for leaving DU with the way things are, regardless of which candidate they support. Saying that makes people "suspect" is a low blow, and not at all in keeping with the principles and ideals of the Democratic party.

I know, I know - "they did it first and have it coming."

* I am not a Clinton supporter

* I will, as I have for the past 40 years, work for and vote for the eventual nominee

with the McCarthy bullshit excuse Two Americas...oh and how noble of you to support whichever democrat is on the ticket. Hey, every single Obama supporter here is a true democrat that will vote democratic in November. You want to ask the same question of the Clintoncrats here? You'll get a very different answer.

Here's a photo of him with a friend of mine:

A lot of these Dems worked like crazy helping Bill and Hillary Clinton with their National Agenda for Breast Cancer. We got a TON of stuff done. Oh, to have those days again.

I have to object to this. This is a set up to make your opponents look bad. Then the fact that they don't take the bait you use as proof of their shortcomings.

Edited on Wed Apr-02-08 10:13 PM by AX10
I still have great respect for him, even though he endorsed Obama.
Also, Feingold has been very positive about HRC, unlike Kennedy :puke:, Dodd, McCatskill :puke:, and Durbin.

edit: I look for to McCatskill being ousted in 2012.

61. Try this one on for size on the question of...
saying something "nice" about an "Obama Super Delegate" --

cognitive dissonance?
or
oxymoron?

Just having fun!
I actually think both candidates would be good for this country. Super delegates? Not so much.
