I would like to let you know that this type of intended cruelty is so heartbreaking when it comes from within our party.
It makes me and countless others redouble our efforts - so thank you for that.

22. I guess I just don't get the joke ...
... and it won't be the first time.

I don't see what is so "rofl" funny about a woman who is obviously exhausted by a campaign into which she has put her heart and soul, and has spared no effort in doing what she feels is right for the country.

Win or lose, Hillary is a great American with a sense of purpose, and a true desire to see positive change for all of us. Should she not be the nominee, she will undoubtedly continue her efforts on behalf of her constituents in NY (she is my senator there), and on behalf of her countrymen.

And BTW, I'm an Obama supporter.

30. I realize what a disappointment ...
... recent events have been for Hillary supporters - just as it was for Edwards supporters not so long ago.

But just remember that if Obama winds up being the ultimate choice of our fellow party members, people like Hillary and JE will never desert their fellow citizens - they will continue to pursue their vision for a better America through other endeavours, other means.

Al Gore has certainly been a shining example of that kind of commitment.

35. Was It An Asinine Post, Of Course... But It Reflects My Anger Pretty Accurately, And...
this IS the BIG LEAGUES...

<snip>

The campaign’s other most potent form of currency remains its thick deck of race cards. This was all too apparent in the Hallmark show. In its carefully calibrated cross section of geographically and demographically diverse cast members — young, old, one gay man, one vet, two union members — African-Americans were reduced to also-rans. One black woman, the former TV correspondent Carole Simpson, was given the servile role of the meeting’s nominal moderator, Ed McMahon to Mrs. Clinton’s top banana. Scattered black faces could be seen in the audience. But in the entire televised hour, there was not a single African-American questioner, whether to toss a softball or ask about the Clintons’ own recent misadventures in racial politics.

The Clinton camp does not leave such matters to chance. This decision was a cold, political cost-benefit calculus. In October, seven months after the two candidates’ dueling church perorations in Selma, USA Today found Hillary Clinton leading Mr. Obama among African-American Democrats by a margin of 62 percent to 34 percent. But once black voters met Mr. Obama and started to gravitate toward him, Bill Clinton and the campaign’s other surrogates stopped caring about what African-Americans thought. In an effort to scare off white voters, Mr. Obama was ghettoized as a cocaine user (by the chief Clinton strategist, Mark Penn, among others), “the black candidate” (as Clinton strategists told the Associated Press) and Jesse Jackson redux (by Mr. Clinton himself).

The result? Black America has largely deserted the Clintons. In her California primary victory, Mrs. Clinton drew only 19 percent of the black vote. The campaign saw this coming and so saw no percentage in bestowing precious minutes of prime-time television on African-American queries.

That time went instead to the Hispanic population that was still in play in Super Tuesday’s voting in the West. Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa of Los Angeles had a cameo, and one of the satellite meetings was held in the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque. There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s smart politics, especially since Mr. Obama has been behind the curve in wooing this constituency.

But the wholesale substitution of Hispanics for blacks on the Hallmark show is tainted by a creepy racial back story. Last month a Hispanic pollster employed by the Clinton campaign pitted the two groups against each other by telling The New Yorker that Hispanic voters have “not shown a lot of willingness or affinity to support black candidates.” Mrs. Clinton then seconded the motion by telling Tim Russert in a debate that her pollster was “making a historical statement.”

It wasn’t an accurate statement, historical or otherwise. It was a lie, and a bigoted lie at that, given that it branded Hispanics, a group as heterogeneous as any other, as monolithic racists. As the columnist Gregory Rodriguez pointed out in The Los Angeles Times, all three black members of Congress in that city won in heavily Latino districts; black mayors as various as David Dinkins in New York in the 1980s and Ron Kirk in Dallas in the 1990s received more than 70 percent of the Hispanic vote. The real point of the Clinton campaign’s decision to sow misinformation and racial division, Mr. Rodriguez concluded, was to “undermine one of Obama’s central selling points, that he can build bridges and unite Americans of all types.”

If that was the intent, it didn’t work. Mrs. Clinton did pile up her expected large margin among Latino voters in California. But her tight grip on that electorate is loosening. Mr. Obama, who captured only 26 percent of Hispanic voters in Nevada last month, did better than that in every state on Tuesday, reaching 41 percent in Arizona and 53 percent in Connecticut. Meanwhile, the Clinton campaign’s attempt to drive white voters away from Mr. Obama by playing the race card has backfired. His white vote tally rises every week. Though Mrs. Clinton won California by almost 10 percentage points, among whites she beat Mr. Obama by only 3 points.

The question now is how much more racial friction the Clinton campaign will gin up if its Hispanic support starts to erode in Texas, whose March 4 vote it sees as its latest firewall. Clearly it will stop at little. That’s why you now hear Clinton operatives talk ever more brazenly about trying to reverse party rulings so that they can hijack 366 ghost delegates from Florida and the other rogue primary, Michigan, where Mr. Obama wasn’t even on the ballot. So much for Mrs. Clinton’s assurance on New Hampshire Public Radio last fall that it didn’t matter if she alone kept her name on the Michigan ballot because the vote “is not going to count for anything.”

Last month, two eminent African-American historians who have served in government, Mary Frances Berry (in the Carter and Clinton years) and Roger Wilkins (in the Johnson administration), wrote Howard Dean, the Democrats’ chairman, to warn him of the perils of that credentials fight. Last week, Mr. Dean became sufficiently alarmed to propose brokering an “arrangement” if a clear-cut victory by one candidate hasn’t rendered the issue moot by the spring. But does anyone seriously believe that Howard Dean can deter a Clinton combine so ruthless that it risked shredding three decades of mutual affection with black America to win a primary?

A race-tinged brawl at the convention, some nine weeks before Election Day, will not be a Hallmark moment. As Mr. Wilkins reiterated to me last week, it will be a flashback to the Democratic civil war of 1968, a suicide for the party no matter which victor ends up holding the rancid spoils.

58. If you had something to say ...
... why didn't you just say it (as you have done here), rather than posting an incredibly unflattering photograph of someone with an "rofl" emoticon?

I may not agree with what you've stated here, but respect your right and ability to say it.

If you have something you think is of value to discuss at the adult gathering, stop 'playing' to the kiddie table - that's all I'm saying.

But that thing I posted that you looked over before responding???

I did post it here. It got maybe 9 responses. I've posted a number of semi-well thought out (at least I thought so, LOL) posts, only to have them drop into the abyss immediately. And so have you. And ya know what, it's a real shame.

I'm all too ready for the DU Peace Talks to start, but I'm afraid we're gonna be on this merri-go-round for at least another month or more.

I'll try to use my 3 posts more wisely. But I can't promise nuttin.

No kiddin', we're going to need major negotiators to broker that cease-fire!

You and I obviously disagree on certain political issues, but I hate to see you (and some others) using 'kiddie table rhetoric' to make a point when you're capable of actually articulating what you want to say on a more adult and meaningful level.

Let's leave that to some here who (especially of late) have nothing more to add to the conversation than meaningless garbage spewing.

59. Still Wondering About The Cease-Fire...
C'mon...whadda ya say...

You and me, we agree to nominate a DU commission to stop the partisan hackery.

How far do you think we'd get?

63. It starts one person at a time
I've spent a good amount of time criticizing and "ignoring" the worst offenders. If a "movement" were to start where individual posters, on their own volition, decided to stop attacking and start taking on & then ignoring the attackers, they would lose their audience. I don't know about you, but this is not the Democratic party that I want to be a part of :(

69. Agreed, And...
the unfortunate thing lately, is that asinine posts like mine (this one) get FAR MORE play than most well thought out posts ever do.

Maybe the start, is to reward well reasoned posts.

73. Well reasoned and/or positive posts are boring
People are used to coming here for an adrenaline rush.

I assume that nothing will change until the nominee is finalized, though that's not guarantee. I like discussing the positives and negatives of each candidate, but I am just as likely to click on a flamethrower thread as the next person (reptile instinct?) It's really up to individuals to stop the infighting, but with trolls showing up faster than flies to a shit-pile - we may be shovelling against the tide.

49. She's clearly exhausted.
Look at her eyes.

I think this race is taking a lot out of her. I feel sort of sorry for her. She is carrying all the weight on her shoulders. If, by some miracle, she manages to get the nomination, it will be completely and totally by the fruit of her labor.

That is not how campaigns are supposed to be run. You have teams. You have managers. You have co-chairs. You have an administrative circle that is honest with you and surrogates who help maintain and broaden your base. You have smart strategic advisors.

Hillary has next to none of those things at this point. What you see is a very tired woman.

Tuesday night, you can tell she never gets to rest, herself or her voice. She's gotta be tired.

66. Why is that funny? She looks tired, and her voice has been raspy
over the last few days, she probably has a sore throat.

jeez - show a little compassion for another human being.

76. Why don't you post a picture of yourself so we can caption it.
I've already picked out mine: "Uglier Than a Bucket Full of Assholes."

Witty, eh? And all in good fun, of course!

77. She looks beat, I feel for her
I don't know why people want to be president. The campaign is grueling, your private life gets ripped open and examined with a microscope, and if you win, you go through a physical transformation that takes years off of your life. Do a comparison of The Big Dog in 1992 and 2000. It's frightening how badly the President ages while in office.

84. I posted that picture as my desktop....
...helps me remember that trying to get something of significance done involves a greater expenditure of effort than sitting behind a keyboard "jacking my jaws"...time to get out and give some physical support to my candidates...
