18. Shh!! You're not supposed to talk about them!
You know what happens when the overlords get pissed! And don't think some pigeon hasn't reported it.
Hey...could you go sit over there? Thanks.

6. There are a few sincere supporters we've damaged beyond repair.
And just as many trolls who are not only mocking the sincere supporters, but successfully turning us against them. Sad part is, until they realize how they're getting played, there's not a whole lot we can do to convince them otherwise.

8. hmm -- i'm certainly anti-obama.
but that's because obama acted in a fashion that prevents me from being anything close to being a supporter.

but he is more than likely going to be prez -- and so now he gets the big whatever.

10. The frothing-at-the-mouth Clintonistas have largely left the building.
But many remain.

Likewise, there's no shortage of rightwing trolls, either.

It's a mixed bag.

13. At this point, the vast majority of such posts are obvious disruption.
Just look at the tone and content of 95% of such posts floating around GD: P today, and you find they are largely one-hit flaming wonders which, when replied to, garner no counter-response.

This is the trademark tactic of the confirmed troll: post something he/she knows will enrage a majority of the other posters on the site he/she is posting at, and reply to none of the posts challenging their original one. The whole intent is to disrupt.

This is what most of the remaining Clinton "supporters" are engaged in on DU these days, I do believe.
