162. Chicken or the egg?
I guess you have to ask when and where did it all start? I know I certainly didn't previoulsy feel so anti-Obama. But being abused and exposed to the most vile forms of anti-Hillary smear certainly made it easy for me to strenghten my allegiance to her. When a leader (eg Obama) has that kind of impact on people - that is when some of his followers feel the need to be so hateful - I worry what that's about. And yes, I am guilty of returning some of the venom that has been thrown my way but I certainly didn't start it. But hell, that's what humans do when they are under attack. It's called self-preservation. If there wasn't so much hysteria and anti-Hillary propaganda around, I probably woulnd't feel the need to come in here and strike up some kind of defense, however feeble that may be percieved to be.
