Hillary Clinton Supporters Check In!

[Dinger]

Let's start with me. See if I come out of this alive.

[ronnykmarshall]

1. I'm here too!

[Justyce]

2. Here! Several of my family members have already

early voted in Texas for her. :hi:

[Captain Hilts]

51. Edwards got a raw deal. nt

[fishnfla]

3. Vainly raises hand

sometimes its like fishing for walleyes thru the ice on Shawano Lake....on a night like last ;)

[saracat]

4. I now support Hillary. She is our only valid choice.

And the only candidate with universal healthcare.

[More Than A Feeling]

80. So many of all my rowdy Edwards supporters going for Hillary.

you, jsamuels, jackson_dem...I'm feeling more of a connection to Obama, though I don't think of or call myself his supporter (because he hasn't received anything from me in the primaries, and because of the ex-gay thing). I miss being on the same side with all you guys though.

:hug:saracat

[Enrique]

5. Heil Hillary

:-)

[hayu_lol]

9. Still here Dinger...

G.

[Dinger]

37. Hi Buddy!!!

Did ya get my pm? I miss ya & LabWitch!:hippie:

[greguganus]

79. "Heil Hillary"??? n/t

[Captain Hilts]

6. She's the adult in the room. Not promising Coca-Cola in the water fountains. nt

[smalll]

38. Coca-Cola is "so last century." Obama promises Red Bull in the water fountains!

But then, come to think of it, have Obamaboppers ever sipped at a water fountain? America's been through a lot in the past half century: from segregated water fountains, to integrated water fountains, to non-existent water fountains now everyone drinks overpriced plastic-encased "bottled" water instead.

[Jamastiene]

60. I thought it was grape flavored Kool Aid in the water fountains...

and ponies for every kid voting for him.

[Tom Rinaldo]

7. There are plenty of Hillary supporters here

Just not nearly as many as Obama supporters, lol. And human nature being what it is, it takes a lot of grit to fly in the face of majority opinion all of the time, so many of the DU members who do support Hillary don't post about her that much. Sometimes it feels like asking for a group mugging. Besides it is more fun to hang out with lots of buds online having your beliefs reinforced - basoc human nature. Some Clinton supporters won't come out of the woodwork unless and until things turn around for her in the primaries.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

18. I Don't Fully Grasp The Phenomenon

I was happy when my team won the NBA Finals but I realize the accomplishement really wasn't mine... I just got on the right bandwagon...It didn't make me a better person...In fact it takes grit not to be a front runner...

[Tom Rinaldo]

24. When people believe they are helping to make a better America

by backing a certain candidate, it makes them feel like better people. I understand that linkage anyway. It gets ugly when they think the way to make a better America is to destroy other Demcorats who oppose their given candidate.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

32. The Paradox That The Supporters Of The Candidate Who Promises To Unite Us Are So Quick To Squash

Or Belittle Dissenting Views Is Not Lost On Me And For That Reason I Can Not In Good Conscience Support That Candidate In The Fall...

[Captain Hilts]

50. Me either, but then again, I was really excited about Michael Dukakis. Still am. nt

[RichGirl]

8. present

Enthusiastically present!

[BootinUp]

10. Hillary for you and me. :-)

[LadyVT]

11. Here! If not 2008, then 2012. :)

Write letters to newspaper reporters in TX and OH. Continue to post on news media blogs and newspaper websites. Posting on DU doesn't really do anything for our candidate! Go to her website and make phone calls to OH and TX. Don't stop thinking about tomorrow! :)

[JohnnyLib2]

12. Yo!

[DemocratSinceBirth]

13. Here

Do you like my body armor? :tinfoilhat:

[Beausoir]

16. I'm not going anywhere. She in and she's in to win.

[AGirl]

17. I am here

[judaspriestess]

19. Howdy Partner

:hi:

[DemocratSinceBirth]

22. I Won't Hold The Fact You're A Spurs Fan Against You

Now that Shaq is a Sun I'm a Phoenix fan...

This is the fourth team I have followed him to...

[judaspriestess]

43. I won't hold it against you either

nobody's perfect............;)

[jillan]

20. Howdy from Arizona - a very smart state!

[gerrilea]

21. Here to be counted...love HRC...hope we can get more support

[rodeodance]

23. here--whats up???

[UALRBSofL]

25. I'm checking in-But I want to address this "CHANGE" theme Obama is pushing

I don't see where the change is in his policies. If anything, I see more of a republican in him then democrat. I made a list of things that bother me with him. I just listed them on another post a minute ago but they need to be posted on this thread.

He's made statements referencing invading NW Pakistan to flush out and find Osama Ben Lauden. I don't like the way that sounds. I mean, it is basically a right wing talking point and because of that I question his true progressiveness.

Another thing that bothers me is he is open to the idea of a voucher system for private schools, another right wing talking point. He seems to think NCLB is worth reworking when it was a disaster and it needs to be thrown out and a new plan working from the bottom up needs to be initiated.

Another thing that bothers me is he wants to increase the age of social security benefits for senior citizens. I don't like this idea either. In retrospect he is trying to save money which is a right leaning idea and Senior Citizens will revolt.

He hasn't come out and said he would get rid of DADT whereas Hillary has.

[PresidentObama]

26. Still here. Not as confident. But I'm here.

I was for John Edwards when we couldn't catch a break.

I'm ready for a good fight, but still kinda bummed already.

But I'm here. And smiling like I mean it, as that Mika song goes :)

[rodeodance]

back to yah-on the low side of late---but........we will see.

[PresidentObama]

33. I've got my boxing gloves on. Someone get me a glass of a water.

This is going to be a bloody last round!

[rodeodance]

57. ha ha-not SWOONed over I see. so do I.

[Rockholm]

27. Hillary Supporter Here With MAJOR Question.

OK, since I am among Hillary supporters, I can ask this. It seems to me that Hillary has been winning the states that have closed primaries, one with only Democrats voting for Democrats, no Independents and republicans. Does anyone smell a rat? Could the republicans be voting en masse now for Obama in open primaries so that we send the weaker candidate into the general?
Just asking. Don't know if this has been covered lately, or at all. I would just get attacked by Obamabots.

[PresidentObama]

30. No. I'm not one for conspiracies. I don't think this is the case.

People were suggesting the same thing with Hillary, claiming that Republicans want her as the candidate to destroy her. Truth be told, the GOP knows either candidate can and probably will crush them if we run this campaign right. The edge goes to the Democrats, and I don't buy into this theory.

[zabet]

31. This has been discussed

some in sub-threads. Seems like
none of the Obama supporters have
ever heard of 'stealing' primaries
from the opposing party.

[Jai4WKC08]

45. It's a fact.

It's called the "Stop Hillary Now" campaign. Rush Limbo has been telling his callers to vote for Obama, as has Dick Morris was on Fox. There have been Republican callers to Washington Journal on C-SPAN as well.

[Captain Hilts]

47. They might be voting Obama because they hate her so bad, also. Hard to say.

I read she lost by 2% in Wisc among registered Dems. Is that true?

[Rockholm]

59. It almost is like Ned Lamont in CT.

He won the Democratic primary only to lose to LIEberman when all the republicans voted for LIEberman over the republic candidate.

[calico1]

70. What happened in CT was that the Republican

candidate was such a clown. The local Republicans didn't even support him and instead got behind Lieberman. The Republicans here love him because he works so well with Republicans, KWIM?

I am still a Clinton supporter. At this point Obama does nothing for me and some of his supporters certainly have not helped with my opinion.

[Jamastiene]

62. I think that is happening too.

You'll probably get the majority here telling you it's not the case, but then again, the majority here are Obama supporters who don't want us to talk about the truth.

[Rockholm]

67. True. That's why I asked this in a "Hillary" thread.

They are living in a fairy tale.

[zabet]

28. Present! hee hee

:bounce::patriot:!!!HILLARY!!!:patriot::bounce:

[NastyRiffraff]

29. Here! Even though we aren't entirely welcome on DU

Cheering for Hillary and all her supporters!

Particularly cheering for people in the remaining states who'll vote in their primaries :hi:

[CyberPieHole]

34. Hillary Clinton will make a wonderful 44th President of the U.S. of A.

and I strongly support her candidacy.

:kick: and rec

[MoonRiver]

35. K&R because I can. And , yes, SHE still CAN!

:hi:

[smalll]

36. "Present." ALL TOGETHER NOW --

And I’m proud to be a Hillarite,
Another Dem for Hillary.
And I won't get caught in the O-man's hype,
or his froth and frippery -

And I gladly stand up,
next to you, and defend Her still tonight.
I don't want the "god" above us all,
but Our Girl who's in our fight!

:patriot:

[Captain Hilts]

49. Ladies! Two, four, six, eight, WE'RE the ones who ov-u-late! Two, four....nt

40. Present.....

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

41. I'm Here.

But I support Obama too. Is that ok? :)

[KoKo]

42. I'm undecided...but probably lean a hair to her...so I'm replying...but not committed.

Open...but not sure...

[Captain Hilts]

48. That's perfectly okay. I'll vote for either with more enthusiasm than I voted for Kerry. nt

[anamnua]

44. Still alive and kicking

[golddigger]

46. Present and accounted for...I love that.

:hi: :kick: :woohoo: :applause: :woohoo:

[paperbag_ princess]

52. new here and loud and proud!

Go Hillary...

I am all settled in for the debates...located at the great University of Texas (hook 'em horns)

I am sitting here in my big leather chair, with my red wine and my Butterfinger easter eggs (evil little things!)...the baby is asleep....

Here is hoping Hillary hits a home runs and we get a little traction out of this thing!

:dem:

Don't forget to remind them that you are a patriot! :patriot: :P

[LeftCoast]

53. I'm on board!

:hi:

[andlor]

54. present!

[orchidlover127]

55. Here-hoping CNN can stop drooling!

Please let's just get to the debate! They just had on a guy who was whacking Clinton on Latino issues-they cant stop themselves!!! :banghead:

[Alamom]

56. ME ! nm

[usrbs]

58. I'm a Hill-phil. n/t

[Jamastiene]

61. Here. Present for now, but

if I am not here after another day of this shit, it doesn't mean my support will leave Hillary. She's getting my vote in May, no matter what.

[Straight Shooter]

64. You've gotta stay. You're one of my favs.

:hi:

[Raffi Ella]

63. hey y'all

:)

[mtnsnake]

65. at your service!

:smoke:

[theHandpuppet]

66. Present... sort of

Trying to finish a project and track the debate at the same time doesn't work too well. LOL! But I'm here.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

68. Hillary is my gal

[Autumn]

69. Right here

alive and kicking.

[Cameron27]

71. Hey Dinger,

it's good to see you!

I'm here, and judging by the names in this thread, I'm in very good company. To Clinton's supporters! :toast:

[Raffi Ella]

75. To us

and to Hillary :toast:


It's a good day to be a Hillary Supporter.

[vision]

72. I Like and voted for Hillary

I was a Kucinich supporter who went to Edwards and than voted for Clinton on Super Tuesday. I like Obama but I don't know if he will be tough enough against the Republicans and I don't like all the cozy talk towards Republicans.

When has trusting a Republican office holder done the common man any good? Maybe if you go back to Ike or TR.

[mtnsnake]

76. Interesting

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only Clinton supporter who liked Kucinich as their favorite choice. I actually had a couple people on this forum nervy and dumb enough to tell me that no Kucinich supporter could possibly be a Clinton supporter. Interestingly, one of those geniuses who said that to me was a faux Kucinich supporter who has since been outed and tombstoned as a fake, that Kucinihc4America guy, or whatever his name was, lol.

I like Obama but I don't know if he will be tough enough against the Republicans and I don't like all the cozy talk towards Republicans.

Exactly my sentiments, too, and the concern of all of my friends in my area who all think that Obama simply won't be tough enough to go up against McCain.

[Dinger]

73. Shameless Self-Kick To See If You're Still Here

:grouphug: :patriot: :hi:

[Little Star]

74. I proudly say: I support Hillary!

[Beacool]

77. I'm still here and I will stay here until the end!!!

One of the things that I have always admired about Hillary is her grit and courage. I like women with "balls" because I have grown a pair myself. I have no problem with controversial women who make waves, it's the mealy mouthed ones that I can't stand.

Hillary will have a prominent place in American history books whether she wins the presidency or not. She has proven to be one of the most remarkable and accomplished women of our country and I for one couldn't be prouder of her.


Go Hillary!!!!!!!!


:bounce:

[goldcanyonaz]

78. I only support Hillary Clinton for President. Yep, and that's my final answer.

[BenDavid]

81. Till the last dog dies in my support of HRC

and just a few thoughts: I'd say the whore media piled on and tied Hillary's hands. Everytime she or Bill made a point, the whore press said, "Racism! How dare you!"

That's why the LBJ comment was treated as a racial slur. That's why the Jesse Jackson comment was treated as a racial slur.

Who knew running against a Black person would have such pitfalls? If they said anything, the reply was always, "How long have you hated Blacks?" Nobody's going to ask McCain that because everybody knows Republicans hate Blacks.

Weren't we all a little suspicious when Obama won GOP bunkers like Idaho and Utah while losing liberal/Democratic strongholds like New York, New Jersey and California?

Really? You weren't even a little bit suspicious?

My bullshit detector has been barking like a chihahua on Cuervo Gold for months but this Obama Fever has captured everyone's attention and they can't say why.

Let's hope I'm 100% crazy and wrong


Question: Will Obama if he receives the nomination ask those racists(the Clintons) to campaign for him?
