Where have all the Clinton supporters gone on this board?

[calteacherguy]

I won't name names, of course, but where have all the most visible Clinton supporters gone that have been hammering this board for months with poll after poll, screaming "Hillary is 44," "nothing can stop her," etc?

Where did they go?

I miss them...I can't argue with myself.

[Blue_In_AK]

1. They'll be back.

This is far from over.

[silverweb]

2. Shhhhhhhhhh....

They're probably regrouping for future, more desperate, more vicious assaults.

But let's just enjoy the peace for now. :D

[Lucinda]

3. I haven't gone anywhere. :)

[Auntie Bush]

4. I'm here!

:hi: Never left. Will never give up! :)

[MethuenProgressive]

5. Some, like you did, switched from Clinton to another candidate.

:shrug:

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

Their shift managers thought they'd make more ground somewhere else?

[Kucinich4America]

6. I'll bet they had to have a special training session

....in the DLC conference room. It's going to be a challenge to mount an effective slander campaign against Obama in less than 5 days.

[Bullet1987]

57. And the weekend too...

[wyldwolf]

7. I haven't gone anywhere

:shrug:

[ronnykmarshall]

43. Checking in as well

[Catherine Vincent]

8. Aren't you a Clinton supporter?

Oh that's right. You switched.

[rodeodance]

36. good one

[annie1]

9. I'm here.

[avrdream]

10. Present!

When do I get to vote?

:hi:

[Cameron27]

11. I'm here,

I suppose that some are on vacation, many are working etc. etc. I don't know why this concerns you.

[Catherine Vincent]

12. He probably wants to gloat. nt

[yardwork]

13. Wow. How charming and gracious of you to....gloat.

I'm not a Hillary supporter, but with Obama supporters like you running around spreading joy, who needs Republicans?

[annie1]

18. Obama supporters sounded like pubs during his speech last night, chanting usa. it was sorta scary

[yardwork]

25. A lot of the Obama supporters on DU sound like spoiled little jerks.

They've left a bad taste in my mouth.

[Jane Austin]

38. They were shouting O-BA-MA,

not U-S-A.

Just like Sen. Clinton's crowd shouted HIL-A-RY.

[Beacool]

14. We are here and we're ready to fight for Hillary until the last vote is counted!!!

The battle has just begun and there are 49 states still to be counted.

Go Hillary!!!!!

[sandnsea]

15. Hillary hasn't settled on a message yet

They don't know what to post. I don't think most of them will want to sell "terra terra terra" either. At least not here.

[JI7]

16. i would probably have taken a break if Obama lost

my guess is that is what they are doing and will be back.

also, many Clinton supporters congratulated Obama and his supporters yesterday. didn't you support Clark last time around ? you must know how much it hurts when the candidate you supported so strongly doesn't do well.

[rox63]

17. They were all over GD:P earlier today

They'll be back, I'm sure.

Edit: Oops, found 'em here: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3952044

[Auntie Bush]

21. I'm already back. In fact, I nerer left.

[RichGirl]

23. Right here reading all the posts....

I'm very happy for Obama and if he should get the nom I'll work for him as if he were my first choice. But...for the time being...Hillary is still my first choice. Of course we are disappointed but it would be foolish to give up. As it is foolish for the Obama team to think they have this all wrapped up.

[ccpup]

44. per his "I win NH, I win the Presidency" quote

-- allegedly -- earlier today, I already think he's losing sight of the work needed to be done and believing his own hype that he's got this in the bag.

And, as a Hillary Supporter, I hope he continues to do that. She'll continue with her nose to the grindstone working to earn each vote while he's taking his much publicized, premature Victory Lap with his Advisers and, at the end of the day, we'll see who's left standing after Super Tuesday.

I'm betting on Experience over Hype.

[Sparkly]

19. After the extra nastiness from some DUers last night, would you want to be here?

I don't blame them if they want to take a break.

[ronnykmarshall]

45. For the first time I started an "Ignore" list.

I've never done that before last night.

[avrdream]

60. Ha! Welcome to the club, rkm. It feels good, doesn't it?

I like the delete thread option too.

[Skip Intro]

20. Hello.

[NoPasaran]

Many of us are kicking back with a refreshing beverage

Enjoying the Obama-Edwards sniping.

Good show!

:popcorn:

[mckeown1128]

22. they haven't recieved the NH attack talking points yet...

I wandered into the Hillaryis44 site and they still seem to be in shock from last night. Don't worry... they will be back soon.

[LostinVA]

Broad brush smearing DUers, eh?

Especially many longtimers who have shown their liberal cred. Nice.

[mckeown1128]

53. proven liberal thread doesn't give people the right to smear

Democratic candidates for president unfairly.

[LostinVA]

56. Exactly -- that applies to all the candidates and all the supporters

When have I ever smeared Obama? I haven't made one post smearing Obama.

[BenDavid]

24. Never left. Don't measure the drapes too early now...Posted

last night and today and I still say Obama is nothing more then a modern day Bill Starbuck, aka Bill Smith, Bill Harley, Tornado Johnson and obama will promise us all the world, and he will bring rain. ( the rainmaker )Even gone as far as saying "Election theft won't be tolerated" Well hell, if obama says he's going to fight, just like Gore and Kerry?Edwards promised that they were going to fight, that's good enough for us - right? HRC supporters should just leave HRC's campaign now and join Obama. Not going to happen, cause Obama will not be our nominee.....Other then illinois I see no state obama can even begin to get the 2181 delegates to be the nominee but I do see HRC having enough no later then march 4th to be the nominee.....

[calteacherguy]

28. Glad to see you still around!

And I do believe Obama will be rain...a great healing rain to restore and renew the fertile soil of America's soul. We need rain. We need to be washed clean.

Oh, and he's gonna win California. I'll be helping with that effort. :hi:

[yardwork]

31. Some of Obama's supporters definitely do need to have their souls washed clean.

I agree with you about that.

[BenDavid]

35. surely you jest..fire is the cleansing and hrc is gonna bring it. The

real contest begins now.....Maybe we should send federal marshalls into iowa and check all those students that said they were not registered in other states and maybe arrest a few.I jest.....

[Jai4WKC08]

26. Gloat while you still can

She who cackles last, cackles best. :)

[IA_Seth]

27. I'm still here..

Although I might not be one of those that you were referring to...

[indimuse]

29. "present"

:hi:

[IndianaJones]

30. I'm your huckleberry. nt.

[bluedog]

32. Present...........Iowa does not speak for me! n/t

[TheWraith]

33. Some of them are waiting for new orders from HQ.

They can't figure out what the next spin is going to be on their own.

The rest are just hiding, knowing they've made fools of themselves.

Honestly, I've been made more and more staunchly anti-Hillary over the season by the people here demanding absolute loyalty to her, smearing and attacking the others, then claiming innocence and that the others are supposedly the ones who are doing negative campaigning.

[russian33]

34. its one freaking state people

he didn't win the presidency...for christ's sake...i am happy, at the turnout, at the young voters, but it's 1 state primary...that's it

[Lint Head]

37. Edwards came in ahead of Clinton. Yet the media says, Clinton,

Obama, Clinton, Obama, Clinton, Obama. Edwards is not being given credit for spending 9 million bucks less than O and C. He came in second because of his message. The message will win the day. Gerhardt won Iowa in 2004. I don't think he was ever president. I do like Obama's message and I think it will come down to the meat of the matter and not the money. :dem:

[calteacherguy]

39. Cool, I'm glad to see so many Clinton supporters still around.

I guess you all are being just a little bit more subdued now. That's cool.

[wyldwolf]

46. Right, because if Obama losses a few primaries, you might switch back to Hillary...

...and we wouldn't want you to get lonely.

[annie1]

49. LOL

[LostinVA]

50. Errr.... no, HRC supporters aren't

[ryanmuegge]

40. Obama hasn't won the whole thing yet

And with the support of Wall Street, big pharma, big energy, the mainstream media (a subsidary of the aforementioned), and other assorted criminals in suits behind a Hillary nomination, I would be reluctant to call this race over.

I'm not saying anything bad about Clinton, but it just seems the Republicans and their powerful base are salivating at the thought of her getting the nomination because they see her as the most beatable. Yet, at the same time they want to keep her weak enough so that she barely wins the nomination, only to unleash their complete fury on her after she becomes the nominee.

[Alamom]

41. The gloating over one state, the first state..........is stifling. Have a nice day.nm

[Capn Sunshine]

42. Enjoy the break

They will be back with even MORE of their compadres, having received marching orders from Mark Penn to go negative.

51. Calling fellow DUers -- LONG TIME LIBERAL ones paid pundits?

[Nailzberg]

55. I most certainly did not call anyone a pundit.. They are Paid Flacks!

I'm not gonna say who, but there a few people I suspect get marching orders from campaigns. None are long time DUers, and they all disappeared yesterday afternoon, if not tombstoned earlier than that.

[LostinVA]

48. Errr... they're here, and were last night, too

[racaulk]

52. There's one thing worse than a sore loser.

That's a sore winner.

Congratulations to your candidate, his victory last night was very well deserved. But Iowa is only one state. The race is far from over.

FWIW, I'm not a Clinton supporter, but I find your gloating unnecessary. It does not add to the discourse here, it does not help your candidate, and it just makes you look like a pompous jerk.

[Politicub]

54. I'm still here!

:hi:

[mtnsnake]

58. Present!

Hi teach. Sorry, been out on the road all day. Did ya miss me? :evilgrin:

[LittleClarkie]

59. At least maybe I won't have to deal with the "Hillary is inevitable. Submit" stuff anymore

It's going to be a tougher road for her than they thought, me thinks.
