2. GOTOHELLOBAMA

[KittyWampus]

3. GOTOHELLOBAMA? why are you on DU, buff2? why are you here?

[MonkeyFunk]

9. Maybe because it's not ObamaUnderground...?

[totodeinhere]

53. Maybe in deference to our inevitable nominee...

it really should be renamed ObamaUnderground. That name has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

[buff2]

12. Because this is DEMOCRATIC UNDERGROUND

NOT Obama Underground. Next question?

[LTR]

50. WHAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

[MonkeyFunk]

55. LOL

I think the whining was being done by the person to whom I responded. What an assholic reply.

[Alexander]

24. To sling shit. Why else?

It's obvious rational, thoughtful discourse has escaped this one.

[tokenlib]

4. He's had a good taste of hell this past week...and he will be stronger! n/t

[bilgewaterbill]

10. HELLnoARY!

[MannyGoldstein]

11. Very Impressive

And typical.

[Doug.Goodall]

17. I take it you are not an Obama supporter

<>
FLAME ON!

I happen to like Mr. Obama, and I would like to see him as the next President of the United States.

[buff2]

21. It ain't gonna happen

Just wait and see.Then you will be crying in your Kool-Aid instead of drinking it.

[Doug.Goodall]

23. I will vote for who ever we put up from the convention

I would prefer it to be the Honorable Barack Obama.

[Forkboy]

26. Don't mind buff...no one hugged her as a baby.

[TahitiNut]

30. You sound like a Jean Schmidt supporter.

Classy.

[angie_love]

43. you're very angry. i feel sorry for you.

[JackORoses]

52. Why would Obama go to Hell, Hillary won that state by a large margin?

She's in good with the Establishment there.

[cali]

69. tough shit for you

hillbot. Hilly is done. suck on it.

[jeff30997]

5. Where's Al Gore ?

[Tribetime]

6. I've seen this poll before it ends up 74-26

[mdmc]

7. 74 obama

looks about right

[jeff30997]

8. DOH!

You spoiled all the fun !

[Barack_America]

15. 76-24 now. Looks like we've got some converts, lol. n/t

[buff2]

18. Don't get your hopes up

Did you ever stop to think that the Hillary supporters might not be on here right at this moment? This reminds me of the Freeptards......always jumping on polls and salivating on how THEIR side is always ahead. This place has really turned into freeperville.

[Tribetime]

22. I need a few to start voting or I'll look like Zogby

[Barack_America]

57. I would never call you Zogby.

Let's just say this poll is still within the MOE.

[angie_love]

42. yeah keep dreaming.

[Larry Ogg]

13. This is simple, I vote none of the above/ n/t

[ElsewheresDaughter]

14. bad boy.....you already know the ratio is at least 25 to 1 here for O

[mdmc]

45. close

my friend, close

[Drachasor]

16. As an online poll on a democractic website, this is likely going to stay highly biased for Obama

Since young people are his demographic and greater numbers of them are online (no offense to the older folks!)

[Barack_America]

19. Actually, DU is not as young as you might think.

We did an age poll a while back and I was surprised to see that a majority of DUers are "seasoned". DU is no way comprised of a bunch of twenty-year olds.

[Drachasor]

25. Really? I guess it is unsual then.

I would have thought the statistical bulk would be skewed towards younger persons.

[DearAbby]

46. I am 53

[TexasLady]

20. LOL thanks, I think?

Im fortyfour. Im a ripe old age, doncha know.

[Raine]

33. Yeah here too

I'm 57 and it's been awhile since I was put in the youth category.

[TexasLady]

35. Makes ya wanna just do a marathon or somethin!

[texastoast]

34. Just a baby girl

[Raine]

31. Don't believe that stuff the M$M

puts out cause there are plenty of us who are past being part of the young demographic that support Obama.

[Drachasor]

36. I think people misunderstood what I was saying

I was saying that compared to the overall population, the Democratic Underground population would be skewed towards younger people. Hence an online poll would be skewed towards Obama (since the young people skew towards Obama). I wasn't saying older people don't vote for Obama or that they aren't on this website (which I was why I said "no offense"), I was merely making a statistical statement about what polls here would look like compared to the overall population. I was just saying there would be relatively fewer older people proportionately compared to the general population.

That said, I've been informed that this site isn't actually skewed towards younger folk, but instead towards people that are not quite as young.

[TheDoorbellRang]

37. Sometime within the past year Skinner posted a link

to some site that had the demographics on DUers. IIRC the biggest age group here was 45-55. Maybe someone here will find the link and post it.

BTW, I'm a 54 y.o. for Obama.

[Drachasor]

38. Someone told me that. (Btw, my grandmother is 89 and for Obama)

My mother is for Obama as well.

[Adams Wulff]

62. Not quite as young? Ok, now I'm offended!!

Get off my lawn!

[Adams Wulff]

61. No offense taken... 49 (ouch) as of yesterday

Obama supporter.

[Oilwellian]

27. #100 for Obama n/t

[Raine]

28. Obama!!!

[TahitiNut]

29. Only 1/5th??? Wow! Some people must be posting overtime.

Amazing.

[femmocrat]

32. Well, neither one was my first choice, but I have come over to Obama's side.

Edwards-democrat here!

[Bluebear]

39. John Edwards

[Beaverhausen]

40. John Edwards

[NEOhiodemocrat]

41. Obama

and by the way I am 57, my husband 62 and daughters 18, 23, 30, and son 36 are all for Obama...oldest son 37 is for Clinton. And we still co-exist in peace. Now if someone went for McCain I may have to get upset. We all agree the important thing is a Democratic president has to be elected in 2008.

[DesertRat]

44. Gore. n/t

[Tektonik]

47. Clinton

[GarbagemanLB]

59. From Kucinich to Clinton? Wow.

[Tektonik]

63. From Gore to Kucinich to Edwards to not voting for Obama

[Lilith Velkor]

71. Same here

[Bluenorthwest]

48. I'm still in denial

That these are the only choices. Will vote for the nominee. My primary vote may go unused. First time ever.
Oh, and I'm 48.

[azmouse]

49. kicked for the Sunday morning crowd

[LWolf]

51. Neither. Add a brokered convention with a 3rd, different choice. n/t

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

54. And Who Would You Want That To Be?

[LWolf]

56. The third person?

Any non- centrist/corporate/3rd way/"new" Democrat.

[Dinger]

58. Hillary Has My Vote (nt)

[GarbagemanLB]

60. Obama has my vote, and apparently the vast majority of this board's as well. GObama!

[Autumn]

64. Hillary Clinton

[Scurrilous]

65. Gobama!

[mdmc]

66. just about 25/75

[mdmc]

67. .

[Pryderi]

68. She's getting crushed.

[Pryderi]

70. Wow! You'd think there were more than 77 Hillary supporters.
