25. Generalize much?
Search my post history. You'll see regular defense of Clinton supporters, chastisements of fellow Obama supporters that get overly rude, compliments to Clinton on occasion, and probably most important - corrections of my own mistakes with facts and admissions when I've been wrong about something....

....its not hate. It is deep outrage at the idea that any DEMOCRATIC candidate would be actively announcing their unequivocal intention to support super delegates in DENYING the will of the people.

I want ordinary people across these states to make the decision, and by god if Hillary wins these next primaries and wins the delegate count from states then she's my nominee and I'll vote for her in November! But I DO NOT want some special elite party RULING CLASS undermining the will of the people in the arrogant, elitist, anti-democratic belief that the people are too stupid to be allowed to choose their representatives without the guidance of a "special" cabal.

If the public chooses a candidate, and a private group of people who were never elected to serve in this capacity choose to veto that choice - then I don't have a party anymore.
