435. Passive-Aggressive Is Still Aggressive
A post like the OP is something that's *intended* to make it's target *feel bad.* It's an attempt at emotional manipulation. IMO, such provocation deserves as severe a thrashing as one can lay on it.

It's not just "HillHounds." Obama supporters have pissed off backers of almost every other candidate on DU, just as their candidate has pissed off a great number of DUers.

When we see anyone attack a Democrat using RW talking points, we assume we've got a RW shill on our hands. In this case, the shill is another Democrat trying to get elected, and his supporters are so enthralled by his charisma they can't see that Very Uncool Thing he's doing. I call that a cult.

It just happens that Hillary is the only other Dem left with a slice of the pie worth mentioning, everyone else has bowed out. Otherwise, we could be / would be EdwardsHounds, BidenHounds, KucinichHounds, etc.
