Goodbye DU! This place is just too toxic to Hillary supporters, and in no way represents

[jlake]

the Democratic Party. I will be spending all of my energy on helping Hilly win Pennsylvania! She is the only real Democrat in this race, and she will win!
The gutter politics and constant smearing from Obama supporters on here is just too much. Get Real.
If anyone wants to contact me, I will check my PMs.
I am not giving up...I am going to focus all of my energy where it matters - on the ground here in PA.
Thanks to everyone for their valuable input and ardent belief in their candidate!
Hopefully after all of the ugliness is over, I can enjoy DU again.
- Jake

I'm a Kucinich supporter who has merely watched the goings on since he dropped out. Best of luck to you in PA. I know you will work hard in GE if Clinton is the nominee. May I suggest, if she doesn't, that you concentrate on Congressional elections in which you have a passionate interest. That's what I'm doing. (BTW, I give the same advice to Obama supporters) It is vital that we get supermajorities in the House and Senate, and those down ticket races need good workers. So I sincerely hope that supporters of the losing candidate, whoever that is, follow my advice. It will be very helpful to our party.

[AX10]

82. I will be working on ousting Chris Shays!

[Usrename]

23. Take the challenge before you leave. What is her path to victory?

I'm curious about what you think her path to victory really is.

How is she going to win this thing? Lose the delegate race, lose the popular vote, and somehow come away with a win from the convention?

And helps the party how? She won't ever win a general if she does that. Her negatives will be even higher than they were when this thing started. A year ago half the people in the country wouldn't vote for her. If she snakes the nomination away from a movement that won more votes and more delegates then she'd be almost guaranteed to lose every state in the general election. Half of the people that can still stomach her now will never vote for her if she continues.

How does she get to the Whitehouse?

Do you have any plausible scenario?

You say that you think she will win. How?

[hulklogan]

24. Nice to see the politics of "hope" kicking you in the rear as you make a graceful exit

I'm not a Clinton supporter, but GD: P has become especially unbearable since the Obama supporters took over.

[ClericJohnPreston]

47. They didn't take anything over

And they will fold like a house of cards with the subtlest of pressures as this race goes on. They are already one step from lunacy, little malleable minds that they are. Pathetically dense,obtuse and drone-like cultists whose naivete and belligerence go hand in hand.

[kwenu]

48. Oh, grow up and stop whining will ya!!!!

You talk about the constant smears by Obama supporters all the while saying Hillary is the only real Democrat in the race which is objectively false. The truth is more people and delegates support Obama and Hillary supporters are crushed by the fact that we rain reality down on the candidate you thought was on her way to a coronation.

[NJmaverick]

49. I am curious how you could complain about a "toxic" environment

and then make a comment like this:

"She is the only real Democrat in this race"

If one is going to complain about a problem, wouldn't it make more sense not to contribute to the problem?

[Cleita]

65. Well, we used to hear the same thing from Lieberman supporters.

Look what happened. You really need to take a hard look at your candidate and if you can still defend her, then join the other kool-aid drinkers in the line. btw, I'm not an Obama supporter either, however, in November I will hold my nose and vote for either one to keep McCain from being President, unless of course one of them is running on the ticket with McCain a thing that is looking like it could be a possibility considering the hints Hillary is dropping in her rhetoric.

[Peregrine Took]

66. I feel the same way - these folks are way over into the moonbeam kool aid

slurping. Same as Air America. Its the trendy position for now - just wait, though...

Bottom line, It doesn't matter to me if HRC is nice or not but one thing I admire about her is her fierceness and we will need every iota of it to defeat the rethugs as I feel they will be dirtier than ever as their candidate is flawed.

I would rather win with a SOB than lose with a prince of a fellow (and I don't think he is one)who can't fight back and pouts when things don't go his way which they won't as he only does well in rethug areas which won't be in our column in November anyway.

way you think. I have felt like that many times here before. I said less than a week ago that I thought it was time to get my ass on out of here.

But here's the thing: If you want to know what the real under current of what is going on in this country, this is the place to be.

If you want to know the truth about 'what is not being reported in the msm', I couldn't think of a better place to be than right here.

While I respect and understand your feelings jlake, take a few steps away and get a breath of fresh air. We all need that. I just know that sooner or later you will be back though. Yes, negativity sucks, but you just can't beat this place. Believe me now, or believe me later, but I know your gonna believe me.

and is the only "real Democrat" in this race is just wrong. The Clinton's have a long record of stooping to whatever level it takes to remain in power. as for your "real Democrat" suggestion, real Democrats do not triangulate the party, give up our ideals for personal gain, drag our party through the mud or continue to fight for ultimate power within the party not allowing it to progress and move forward into the 21st century.
I live in PA and I will be doing all I can to insure that Senator Obama, the one candidate who can change the old stale tone in Washington, who brings us hope of a fresh new direction and can bring back respect and honor to the Presidency, wins in Pa.

THE MATH – March 8 – After Wyoming

Delegates needed to win nomination – 2,024.5 (considering status quo)

TOTAL DELEGATES

Estimated Total Delegates as of March 8:
Hillary Clinton – 1,475.5 (549.0 short)
Barack Obama – 1,598.5 (426.0 short)
Remaining Delegates – 948.0
(Source: Wikipedia 3/8/08)

PLEDGED DELEGATES

Estimated Pledged Delegates:
Hillary Clinton – 1,230.5
Barack Obama – 1,388.5
Remaining Pledged Delegates – 608.0
(Source: Wikipedia 3/8/08)

Maximum possible pledged delegates for each candidate:
Hillary Clinton – 1,838.5 (186.0 short of nomination)
Barack Obama – 1,996.5 (28.0 short of nomination)
Neither candidate can win the nomination with pledged delegates alone.

SUPERDELEGATES

Superdelegates (highest reported for each candidate):
Hillary Clinton – 245 (Source: CBS 3/8/08)
Barack Obama – 210 (Source: AP 3/8/08)
Remaining Superdelegates – 340

FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN SCENARIOS

These are ALL the possible scenarios concerning Florida and Michigan. These scenarios are for pledged delegates only. Superdelegate counts are not included. The presumption here is that most remaining superdelegates will support the candidate who wins the most pledged delegates from the state and territory contests.

The current status quo is: Neither Florida nor Michigan’s slate of delegates are seated.

Scenario 1 - Status Quo
CLINTON NEEDS 63.0%, OBAMA NEEDS 37.0%

Scenario 2 - New elections in FL and MI
CLINTON NEEDS 58.6%, OBAMA NEEDS 41.4%

Scenario 3 - MI seated as is, FL seated as is
CLINTON NEEDS 53.8%, OBAMA NEEDS 46.2%

Scenario 4 - FL not seated, New election in MI
CLINTON NEEDS 60.7%, OBAMA NEEDS 39.3%

Scenario 5 - MI not seated, New election in FL
CLINTON NEEDS 60.0%, OBAMA NEEDS 40.0%

Scenario 6 - FL seated as is, MI not seated
CLINTON NEEDS 59.9%, OBAMA NEEDS 40.1%

Scenario 7 - FL seated as is, New election in MI

190. Excellent stats,

That's about what I counted, though it will be much worse for Clinton after Mississippi.

Thanks.

174. I was just thinking this morning what a toxic wasteland this place has become.

Take care of yourself.

[lumpy]

176. I understand, Jake. I rarely get into this forum simply because

the Obama supporters are a real turnoff with their vituperous slurs. I have to believe some of them are here only to rabble rouse or disrupt. I have yet to hear much positive input regarding Obama's qualifications or at least why they are supporting him. It will be interesting to see if they hang around when the campaign is over.

[Beacool]

177. Yep, this place is now Obama Underground.

Thank goodness this place is not a reflection of how most Democrats feel about Hillary!!! After last Tuesday's great night, her campaign received more than $6M in 48 hrs., most of the donations came from small donors. Hillary has a solid base of supporters and that won't change anytime soon.

I don't know what's going to happen from now until November, but the one thing that I'm sure of is that if Hillary is not on the ticket at all, many of her supporters will either not vote or crossover and vote for Nader or McCain. If the Democratic party wishes to win this election, it behooves them not to dismiss Hillary's supporters.

We will not go away, neither will we toe the party line like lemmings!!!!!!!!!!!

178. Hey!

Don't leave completely! Go hang out at the HRC DU Supporters Group forum instead. Saner, kinder, reality-based over there.

[jlake]

179. Thanks! I'll be sure to check in over there from time to time.

[yourguide]

214. we can't miss you if you dont leave...ahem.

[NDambi]

180. adios!

[11 Bravo]

181. Did someone offer a prize for the 50th "door-ass-way out" post?

Damn, there are some original fucking thinkers around here.

[mtnsnake]

182. Can't say as I blame you at all, jlake.

Coming to this forum is like basking in filth. You have to take a shower anytime you indulge in this cultish atmosphere of Obamawhinerlosers.

[whatchamacallit]

183. Oh no Jlake, don't

On second thought, DO! Bye bye

[EmperorHasNoClothes]

184. Wherever shall we go now for our tortured logic and hilarious exaggeration?

[Kittycat]

185. Darn, who will I mock over dinner now :(

Meatloaf will never be the same without you JLake... You had me at Hillary is going to win all the remaining delegates. *sigh*

[Arkana]

189. Sayonara.

[robcon]

I'm a Hillary supporter, but I don't let DU get me down.

[applegrove]

197. You go a walk the walk Jake. I'm sure the DU will calm down some day soon.

It has to. There needs to be a little peace before the GE.

[Horse with no Name]

199. Good Luck Jlake

Go fight the REAL fight worth fighting and leave the keyboard warriors to fight their own make believe shit.
I totally understand where you are coming from.
The TRUTH used to be top priority here, even when the ugly underbelly exposed our own.
Those days are long gone.
The real world is where it's at.
The underground has been infiltrated by the ones we used to stand against.

[RiverStone]

201. Well, if Hillary does not win...

I hope your back pitching the pukes the same velocity of fastballs --- on Obama's team. Of course, I see it going his way.


Take care jlake.

[jakem]

202. as much as you are wrong in every post i have seen from you-

i never had the heart to ignore you!

good luck to you!

[jalynn]

204. Sorry

Sorry to see you go, I hope you have a change of heart & not let these Obamamaniac's chase you off. They really have gotten way over the top & out of control

[marions ghost]

203. Adios, Au Revoir, Aufwiedersehn 'till then

Walk all around your corner, see-saw your own
Men star by the right, go once around you roam
Find the corner lady, do a right allemande
Swing your own and promenade the land
And now 'till we meet again, Adios, Au Revoir, Aufwiedersehn

The heads lead to the right, you circle round the track
Break and make a line, go forward eight and back
Touch 1/4 now, single file circulate
Boys run right, swing thru tonight
Boys trade, turn thru and then
Right allemande, come back and promenade the land
And now 'till we meet again, Adios, Au Revoir, Aufwiedersehn

Goodnight, goodnight, until we meet again
Adios, Au Revoir, Aufwiedersehn 'till then
Walk all around your corner, see-saw your own
Right allemande, weave the ring you roam
Good night, sleep tight and pleasant dreams to you
Here's a wish and a prayer that every dream comes true
And now 'till we meet again, Adios, Au Revoir, Aufwiedersehn

[LulaMay]

205. Know how you feel. I'm taking a vacation too. See you on the other side!

Karma's a bummer, I guess.

[kikiek]

213. Don't you dare leave!

You are one of my favorite posters at DU.

[annie1]

215. Buy jake. you're so right, it's really disgusting and puts me off Obama. *sigh*

Thanks for going to PA. : )

[backscatter712]

216. Don't let the door hit you...

where the good Lord split you!

[NOLALady]

218. Goodbye.

Good Luck.

[Tom Joad]

221. see ya in december, jlake.

[mattclearing]

222. Finally.

You have a lot of nerve talking about smearing and gutter politics. DU is better for your absence.

[Fox Mulder]

223. She's the only "real Democrat"?

Sorry, but a real Democrat doesn't go to bed with corporations.

Anyways, I hate to see DUers go. Even though we may not agree on the candidate, we're both still Democrats. I hope you reconsider your decision to leave.

[MadBadger]

224. CELEBRATE GOOD TIMES C"MON!

Celebration.

[wakemeupwhenitsover]

225. Locking.

Both teams seem to have done their share of smearing, unfortunately.

best,
