Is it me or has the Clintonista-Obamaniac war subsided on DU? |
|
Have the Clinton supporters entered the acceptance phase?

2. or most of us have realized that fighting doesnt change anything |

I'm not going to convince anyone who to vote for if they have already made up their mind.
I'm glad the venom has subsided- from both sides

5. It will end when Clinton drops out |
|
The warriors on both sides are simply in a regrouping phase until Tuesday.
Then when Clinton loses, it will flare up once again until she surrenders.

8. It was over super tuesday. It took me 3 days to figure it out. Some a bit longer |
|
Some still, have not wrapped their heads around the fact its Obama/McCain. And McCain will lose like McGovern in '72.

31. but the swarm postings on Reagan and present votes, among others, didn't make you want to move on? |
|
There was a lot of board clogging for a long time by Clinton supporters - obviously, only a few, so I'm not trying to wag the finger at you or anyone else. It's just that, Obama supporters put up with a lot for a long time - for days at a time, every third OP would be about a chosen topic and attack, over and over. If you think something bad happened to this board, I think you can trace it back to that kind of behavior. Again, though I support Obama, and post on his behalf (mostly in reply to other posts, not so many OPs), I'm not trying to make this a partisan rant, just an observation that I hope is not biased.

Obama supporters or at least some of whom were claiming to be. Personally, I thought many of them were freepers invading, but who knows.

Not because Barack has the momentum but because Obama supporters here are assholes.

Or at least GD:P
What you're experiencing is an Obama echo chamber. Enjoy.

44. I can only speak for myself, but I have not entered an "acceptance |
|
phase". One of the things I have always admired about Senator Clinton is that she is not a quitter. As long as she stays in the race I will continue to support her because I believe she is the most qualified candidate still in the race. That being said, I will fully support Senator Obama if he is the Democratic nominee, but it won't be because of the bullying attitude I have seen among many of his supporters on this board.
