I've just got to say this
Advertisements [?]
I've been staying away from DU on purpose lately. As more supers go over to Obama, it has started to look like he'll be the nominee (although I think there is at least a 33% chance that he will self-immolate before Denver). I thought that by staying away from the obnoxious O people, I could be more objective about him and maybe feel like I could vote this November. It's not working. Just seeing him and hearing him, even without the sycophants chorus, is enough to turn a person off him. I don't get how so many people can support someone who is so clearly not only elitist, but downright disdainful of average people.

So, I came back here tonight because it's not working, so what the heck. Now, I don't go into GD: P unless I'm on some kind of mission. But, you can't avoid the crap because it's all over the front page. So what do I see? Now that people are starting to believe he'll be the candidate, the kool-aid kids have to kick their hatefulness up a notch and say that they won't support him if he picks Clinton as his VP. I am floored. I am flabbergasted. I am disgusted. I am in utter disbelief. Just what the hell is wrong with these people?

It's not good enough for them to get their woefully inadequate candidate nominated. No, that takes us really close to a loss in the general, but they aren't satisfied until they get a SURE LOSS in the general. They won't stand for any attempt to reunite the party. They have alienated all the non-cult members and they damn well want all the non-cultists to STAY alienated. This is the most despicable, hateful, destructive bunch of people I've ever seen. They aren't satisfied with their "win", they have to rub everyone else's nose in it, too.

If they aren't on Karl Rove's payroll, they damn well ought to be.

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere. As I said, I've been staying away so I'm behind. I'll catch up. But in the meantime, I just had to say this before I exploded.
