33. There were times I felt like you, but from the Obama supporter perspective, and then I realized

that it was certain supporters on DU that was causing the divide, NOT the candidates themseleves

Individuals ONLY speak for themseleves

If they personally attack the opposition, that is THEM.

As someone mentioned on another thread GD:Primaries essentially is a cesspool

The only thing I can say is that I understand exactly how you feel, and don't blame you

For me personally, I will gladly vote for whoever the democratic nominee is

Each of us has to do as we believe, and if that means not voting because of what a particular supporter said, it is understandable, but I personally won't have those who wish to divide, disenfranchise me

Not voting is a statement also, not one that I choose to exercise, but nonetheless a valid statement

Perhaps people on BOTH sides should read your post next time they believe that personally attacking their opponent will help their candidate
