I can't get excited about Obama's speech all the hate and nastiness |
|
against Hillary my candidate from the start has led to much animosity toward him. In years past I have listen to right wing radio because we didn't have the internet or Air America radio and all the ring wing nuts did was tear down the democratic leadership. It's a shame that many Obama supporters and main stream media have turned to these types of attacks during the campaign season. Because of this the luster on the Obama nomination has turned dull to me.

40. The OP is full of shit, that's why |

"In years past I have listen to right wing radio because we didn't have the internet or Air America radio and all the ring wing nuts did was tear down the democratic leadership.

If anyone has been using "right wing tactics", it's Hillary and her supporters. Honestly, the stuff that Hillary supporters were posting on this board were almost identical to what was being said on Hannity, Limbaugh, and other right-wing hacks trashing Obama.

The endless and repetitive attacks on Obama over every ridiculous thing? Remember the cult attacks? I have no sympathy.

9. I'm sorry you feel that way |
|
I really am. I am an Obama supporter, but I do not hate Hillary. There are many of us who feel the same way. Please try not to condemn Obama by association because of some loudmouth asshole supporters of his. Many people use the anonymity of the internet to be genuinely nasty and to stir up trouble.

Your candidate has taken some pretty cheap shots at Obama in this campaign, going so far as accusing him of plagiarism (while doing the exact same thing just minutes later), claiming that McCain is more qualified than Obama to be President, calling him an elitist when she damn well knows he's not, questioning his patriotism, and using racial innuendo.

I guess you missed Hillary herself openly mocking Obama's message of hope and change. You probably missed how many of us were called sexist simply for not supporting Hillary. I guess you missed the nonstop discussions of Rev. Wright. I guess you missed all the talk about how Michelle Obama hates America. I guess you must have somehow missed how Hillary supporters were salivating over Tony Rezko, hoping that something would emerge to bring down Obama. I guess you also missed the message that you people have been spreading over the past few weeks, that Obama is unelectable.
And you have the fucking nerve to accuse Obama supporters of being mean to your candidate.

I mean that sincerely. You cannot let anonymous people who post things they wouldn't say to someone's face influence such an important event.

22. I have supported BOTH candidates .... ALWAYS .... |
|
And Obama's speech is simply breathtaking ....
A historic speech of a sweep and grandeur rarely heard ....
Dare I say : JFK ? .....
Truly: You need to DUMP the reliance on others to acquire your feelings, and LISTEN to the articulate voice of a true gentleman and leader : Barack Obama .....
It is a wonderful speech .... Don't deny yourself this gem ....

24. You're welcome to feel as you wish |
|
But at some point, you may want to decide what will rule your life, regret and anger at things past, or a hope for a future and what you decide will decide how quickly you get it. Think about what you need in your life and how best to get it, if it's to continue the feelings you have here(maybe even for perpetuity), go for it, if you think the urgency of now is too important not to settle for something that wasn't your first choice but you perceive to be better than the alternative then do that. Really depends on what you want, good luck.

knows graciousness and your candidate doesn't. She still gives a divisive stump speech. He gives a unifying speech.

34. I think that reason has turned dull to you |
|
The Democratic leadership has embraced Obama and has admonished Hillary to tone down her rhetoric and support our Democratic nominee. What does Hillary do in response? She flips the bird to Obama and the Democratic party.

I don't diss Hillary supporters and I won't start here. Yet with world peace on the line, Hillary's Roverian tactics and narcissistic personality disorder gets in the way of an inevitable Obama nomination.
She could have built so many bridges tonight - what a wasted opportunity!
Time to let go Hillary, let go already!
