36. Not lashing out, just telling you what this one voter has seen
And certainly the great majority of Obama supporters are not into the cultish aspects of his following. But I've seen a number of threads here of late from folks wondering where this perception of a personality cult arose and I'm simply giving you my perspective. Some would say it's a DLC conspiracy, others a Clinton meme, etc. What I'm saying is that you're doing your candidate a disservice to ignore or deny that there are those among Obama's supporters who have themselves cultivated this perception of a cult following.

I was an Edwards supporter before he withdrew and if his name is still on the WV primary ballot I wll be voting for him. Hillary Clinton is a second choice for me but I'm not feeling inspired by the menu of choices this election cycle. In the end, I'll vote for whichever Dem is on the ballot come November because we can't afford another four years of Republican tyranny.

Be well!

:)
