Obama supporters, what are you going to do with yourselves if Obama doesn't win the nomination? |
|
This is a serious question. I'd really like to know.

As you can see in the exit Polls. Obama supporters are very smart and well educated. They aren't going to stay at home or vote for McCain

If your candidate doesn't win, jump ship and help the enemy? Sorry, McCain may not be the rethug puppet that Limbaugh and others want him to be, but he's still a fucking rethug with some pretty repulsive ideas.

but I won't. Lumping the rest of those fine people in with you would be incorrect and unfair. If you want to act as if the primary is equivalent to 4th grade name-calling contest, have at it. Make your nominee proud!

Unless you care to point me to any post I've made that speaks ill of Hillary supporters (as a whole) or speaks ill of Hillary herself. Why don't you go look, and get back to me when you're ready to have an adult conversation.

I'm going to support Clinton. What the fuck did you think? That I was going to rend my clothes and wail?
What are you going to do if Clinton loses? I know. You'll curl up in a fetal position and suck your thumb.

Much like my parents did when JFK was shot.
It's taking all I can give to stay politically active in light of the Reid/Pelosi leadership. Barack gives me hope. Clinton, to me, represents Reid/Pelosi politics.
on edit: Note that I did not say I would not vote for her...but my active participation in government will most likely cease.

I guess because I have some serious philosophical and political differences with Hillary Clinton and can't trust a damn thing that comes out of her mouth, that I'm a Freeper? I'm very liberal and I'll have a very hard time voting for her. So will many others who came onto the Obama campaign, whether they are progressive, moderate or moderate right.

Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 11:38 AM by Big Blue Marble
that our country missed the opportunity to turn the page on the politics of divisiveness that has defined our country for over thirty years. Personally, after more than forty years of passionately believing that politics can bring real change, I would leave the political arena. I would understand that the political process in our country is completely broken.
I would always vote. But other than that, I would put my energy and my money elsewhere.

He's marginalized any hope she has of moving forward without the support of the independent, younger, and discontent dem coalition he's bringing to the table. He started the whisper, and our voices will be heard. And lord help her if she tries to pull Dean out and replace him with one of her DLC shills.

Hundreds of replies screaming that we're quitting politics, going on a drinking binge, committing seppuku, etc? Maybe idiotic comments that we're writing in "Obama" on our general election ballots?
Here's what thinking adult Democrats do when "their" candidate doesn't win the nomination: We probably complain a little bit and then get on with the serious business of keeping the White House out of the hands of another Republican trainwreck. What did you really expect.
It's like a fucking snowball fight around here.

The simple reason is that the Clinton's DO represent some of what the problem is in Washington and I don't feel her health care plan, or any of her major initiatives will pass easily because of her "polarizing" presence.
