Assuming you in one of the two armed camps of the Dem primary: A question.
No matter who wins the primary, what must the candidate you didn't support do to get back into your good graces?

5. Campaign like hell for my candidate and all is forgotten.
Same goes for people here on DU. Just be supportive of the democratic ticket and we're in business. Everyone is my buddy at that point.

6. Too Late - she can't get back in my good graces
I will never, ever, support Hillary for anything ever again - I'll even donate to anyone who challenges her in the primary for her Senate seat.

8. Like Hippocrates said: do no harm.
I don't mind if they don't help the cause; they just can't hinder it.

16. that person isn't giving us anything we haven't fought for
Edited on Tue May-27-08 07:36 PM by xchrom
and earned all on our own.

you just underlined one of the severe problems i have with this particular candidate and his supporters.

especially in light of his homophobic and very interesting campaign tactic to win over south carolina.

19. ok look - you're in my community and a long time poster like me --
but if mcsame had pulled the bullshit that o did in south carolina my guess is that you would burn him eternally for it. and to top it all off he pulled in sam nunn.

you'll forgive me, please -- but i find ironic - at least -- that another gay person would support o.


while i am not a hillary supporter -- i find her a good deal less offensive on the issues that matter most to me. and those are always first and last lgbtiq issues -- as they will always be.

and there is -- need i remind -- some very significant debate as to who pulled race out of their panties first and started showing it off.
so i stay out of that one on purpose.

20. Nothing
I am supporting the party no matter who the nominee is and no matter who the vice presidential nominee is. I am a serious Obama supporter but if some wierdness happened and at the convention they gave the nomination to Hillary, I would vote for her. My number one concern is keeping freedom of choice available for my daughters and all of the women in America.
