Yes, It's Obvious, Hillary Is Not Going To Be The Nominee. Just Ain't Gonna Happen. However,

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

However, she absolutely DOES have a place in the Democratic Party, is a great Dem with tremendous capability, would've made a great president and she has done more and will continue to do more to support our causes than the overwhelming majority of you slandering keyboard warriors could ever dream of doing in your lifetime.

Cheers to you Hillary. The end is near but you put up one hell of a fight and I still respect the hell out of you.

5. pathetic display

I consider ANY of the DUers you term, "slandering keyboard warriors", better than Hillary. They have all proved to be more loyal and caring and helpful to the party, than Hillary and so many of her supporters.

[msallied]

6. What you said!

Screw her.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

7. ROFLMAO!!!!! Hey, Consider Things However You Want. But It Really Makes You Look Silly!

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[NJmaverick]

8. I will say you and your candidate have one thing in common

[Marrah_G]

12. Fortunately for us, your candidate is a far better person then you are acting like right now.

[NJmaverick]

18. I gave you guys a day to work all the venom out of your systems

after that, I wouldn't tolerate it. MC wants to take cheap shots at GOOD DUers because they backed the winner, he is going to be called out.

[Marrah_G]

26. Since you have proven yourself to be completely irrational, imho.......

I'm going to put you back where you belong.

I cleared the entire list a few weeks ago, the last few days it has been refilling quickly.

[NJmaverick]

34. nothing humble or correct about your opinion

[Lilith Velkor]

74. Yes, OMC and Barack Obama do have one thing in common

They both think winning the general election is more important than humiliating Hillary Clinton and alienating her supporters.

[lumberjack_jeff]

9. Here's an honest question:

Do you think you, personally, have brought in more supporters to Obama or alienated more Democrats from the party?

How many times have you posted anything which paraphrased to "good riddance!"

No one should be cheering or taking any kind of comfort or validation from the exodus of Democrats from DU. It is a microcosm.

[NJmaverick]

15. My feeling is this. The loyal Dems will do what loyal Dems ALWAYS do

support the nominee. Beyond that, it's important to start working to bring in the independents and republicans. Not my job to get the Dems to do the right thing (in fact a party that needs to do that, is pretty much doomed). Then I consider the situation our nation is in.

Any Democrat that wouldn't support the nominee, after our Country is on the brink of disaster (thanks to 8 years of Bush) is simple not worth having in the party. They are too short sighted and too self centered. Any Dem that wouldn't support the nominee in light of what is at stake with the Supreme Court, clearly doesn't care about what we leave to future generations. People that don't care about the Country or our future generations, are not really good prospects. Better to work on people who at least have the common ground of caring about our Country, our fellow citizens and our future generations.

[Doityourself]

64. agreed

[Lucky 13]

27. I feel you need to step back and take a broader view.

You need to try to understand that many people are DEEPLY offended by her comments, especially those along racial lines. She is seen, not just by Obama supporters, as divisive and with good reason.

So yes, to her racism and divisiveness, I say good riddance.

To those supporting her racist and divisive comments, I say good riddance.

There are some things that are clearly wrong and not values that we should purport as "Democratic". Her comments, especially yesterday's, need to be condemned. And anyone who stands by those comments needs to take a long look and figure out if they are with the right party.

If you align yourselves with those views, prepare to be chastised, and rightfully so. If it makes you angry or uncomfortable, there are places where you may better fit in... like Free Republic. The stuff they say on there lines up nearly perfectly with Hillary's comments yesterday. To the untrained observer, I'm not sure you'd be able to tell the difference. Do you not find that disturbing?

And just like Barack has rejected pandering for votes, I reject begging for votes from people that support racist and divisive things. These are votes I don't want. We will overcome the loss of these individuals with every new voter we register and every citizen that is desperate for CHANGE and HOPE.

Sorry, but just the way I feel.

[NJmaverick]

31. Well said a REC for this post!

[Lucky 13]

33. Thanks!

:hi:

[lumberjack_jeff]

77. You've explained that you feel strongly that I shouldn't have such strong feelings.

Less words.

We're not going to win without Hillary's 15m voters. Period.

This is politics. We won't have an opportunity to change anything unless we win.

I'm tired of being Don fucking Quixote.

The big hope illusion is that there is a mythical pool of voters who have been waiting for the right moment to become politically active. There are only two groups we're going get votes from;
a) those who voted for Kerry
b) those who voted for Bush.

The Clinton supporters who are being systematically excommunicated are disproportionately group a) folks.

[FogerRox]

84. We've already seen this aint no 2004.

Gotta get up to speed on that.

[MonkeyFunk]

65. They don't care

they suffer from the delusion that everybody believes as they do - or at least the overwhelming majority of people. They're absolutely incapable of seeing that Clinton is supported by half the party. They truly believe she's wildly unpopular and that everybody loves Obama.

It's an arrogant, smug position to take, and one that I hope doesn't go any higher in the campaign, because it's a good way to lose.

[NJmaverick]

66. What they see, is what you can't- HILLARY LOST

[MonkeyFunk]

68. Well, I guess you haven't seen my recent posts

but that has nothing to do with my point.

OBAMA DID COCAINE!!

[Marrah_G]

11. You just couldn't help yourself

Go have a drink- celebrate your victory. You won.........go be happy!

No need to be here acting like a jackass towards others.

[NJmaverick]

20. Yeah I am not going to let hillary supporters take cheap shots at good DUers

Just because your canidate lost

[Marrah_G]

24. Many of my candidates lost- It's not unusual

Go celebrate- no need to continue fighting. No need to jump on any thread that is pro-Hillary.

it's one thing to be a sore-loser, but to be a sore-winner? That is a special kind of crazy.

[NJmaverick]

28. This thread is NOT JUST pro Hillary, if it was I wouldn't care

This poster felt the need to take cheap shots at GOOD DUers (much better than the guy taking the shots). That should not be tolerated.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

51. They Were Honest And Accurate Shots. Don't Like It? Too Bad So Sad.

The points are valid. Get over it. :hi:

[NJmaverick]

52. like your candidate's statements they were neither accurate or honest

I can see what attracted you to her

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

56. Deny All You Want. They Were Spot On.

Go cry to someone who cares.

[NJmaverick]

59. I have nothing to cry about, you are the one doing the whining

Still reality doesn't seem to apply to your pathetic rants (or perhaps hissy fits would be a better description).

[Marrah_G]

10. I agree OMC-- a toast to one hell of a woman!

[Bonobo]

13. Let her be Senate leader and kick ass there, I say.

She is a natural born ass kicker and just might do a great job there.

[Avalux]

14. I can't go there yet as long as she continues to promote racial division.

There is a component to Hillary that screams "it's all about me" and until she stops the lying crap, cannot cheer her.

[PBS Poll-435]

16. To Hillary!

:cheers:

[blm]

17. No - she didn't. While WE were working our asses off for Gore and Kerry, TeamClinton was undermining

their campaigns, and even resorted to sabotaging Ohio Dem voters on election night in 2004.

While WE were working our asses off to push the Downing Street Memos forward, Clintons showed ZERO INTEREST in helping, and Bill even pretended as if he never heard them in a broadcast tv interview.

While WE were working to push a filibuster of Alito, Hillary and Schumer both stoofd AGAINST any filibuster in the senate Dem caucus and the next day after thousands of protest calls to her office, Hillary said she'd side with filibuster, but she never worked actively for it and she and Schumer both disparaged Kerry in the press for attempting it.

Don't even PRETEND she has done more for Dem issues than DU has. It's simply not true.

[Poll_Blind]

19. "...you slandering keyboard warriors" Hillary Clinton ain't nuttin' but SHIT!

  Really, she's not going to invite you to her house just because you "took a bullet for her on a really important Internet forum!"

22. Go Hillary!

Thanks for posting this. It cheers me up a little.

[redqueen]

23. Couldn't just do a positive thread, huh? Had to get a dig in...

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

43. Intention Wasn't About Positive Or Negative. It Was About Tellin It Like It Is, As Always.

Deal with it. :hi:

[grantcart]

25. I know its not an easy thread for you.

So cheers to you :party:

[Beregond2]

29. Anyone

who can still praise Hillary after the vile way she has conducted herself throughout this campaign is beyond my comprehension. She's a "fighter" all right. But she fights for nothing but her own ambition. Setting the campaign aside, look at her Senate record. In what way does it show a woman fighting for what is best for the people? She represents the kind of faux-Democrat that I hope we are seeing the last of.

I don't support politicians based on whether they have done more for the country than the average citizen. I set the bar a bit higher than that.

[highplainsdem]

30. Cheers!

:toast:

And :kick: and recommend.

Thanks, OMC! :)

[Colobo]

35. She's a great woman.

[countingbluecars]

36. I have met some of these

"slandering keyboard warriors" when they came from across the country to DC to protest this illegal war approved by Hillary. Why couldn't you give Hillary creds without slamming DUers? It weakens your message.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

47. The Point Stands.

She is long time Dem who has done so much, yet some here have the gall to proclaim she has no place to even be in the party. Well, those people are a bunch of friggin morons. The whole point is that in spite of their ignorant short sighted rhetoric, she has done more than they ever will. It's that simple really.

[mopinko]

37. like howard dean said- the most important person in this race is the loser.

if she wants a future in the party, she has to do what dean did- campaign her little heart out for barack.

[usrbs]

38. Thanks and second and third those cheers

I'm glad you're still around and stating the truth, and giveng some incentive to stick around.

[SaveOurDemocracy]

39. K&R for HRC!

:kick:

[ExPatLeftist]

40. Your positive message and wishes to Hillary

are thoroughly destroyed by your simultaneous blanket trashing of so many people here and Obama supporters in general with this statement: "the overwhelming majority of you slandering keyboard warriors".

You started painting a fairly nice picture and then took a big steaming dump all over it.

Pity, I thought you were looking for peace and unity with this OP, but obviously not. Just another cheap shot.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

44. Nope. Wasn't Looking For That.

What I was looking for was to give a smack of reality to those who constantly denigrate a long time member of our party who has done exponentially more than almost everyone here ever will. It's called reality. Try it sometime.

[ExPatLeftist]

79. Yeah, we need a "smack of reality" from you

The arrogance is breathtaking. :eyes:

Everyone here has gone through the process of choosing, and there is no hive mind.

In the process of denigrating those few that have offended you, you have yourself offended many others who support Obama and yet do not take part in this BS.

Speaking of arrogance, hypocrisy also comes to mind. You are yelling loudly and angrily at those that yell loudly and angrily. You are what you claim to hate.

Again, a pity.

[ExPatLeftist]

81. Delete - Double n/t

41. My feeling is that she will be offered the Vice Presidency

I do think this is a nice farewell to her, though I am sure she will be around for a long while unless she chooses not to.

42. to all the 'slandering keyboard warriors'

please do not stoop to the level of this poster, please show him/her what it is like to rise above the name calling and show that it takes an adult to move on without having 'the last jab'

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

45. Too Late. They All Stooped Long Ago.

And most of them are slandering keyboard warriors. Let's be real here shall we? I mean c'mon, is this your first day in GDP or somethin?

:rofl:

[habitual]

48. nope, not my first day at all.

and I am gung ho fired up to blast the repubs out of this election.

What i want to see now tho is a stop to the 'eating our own' mentality that is going on.

Let's regroup and kick some R ass!!!!!

I can totally see how you feel about some extreme posters here. That is, i assume, who you are refering to. I've seen it from both sides and it isn't pretty or productive.

cheers. :toast:

54. Its only obvious to those

who think its ok to let the news media and corporations decide the race in advance.

[Warren DeMontague]

55. this would have been a better OP if you could have resisted the elbow jab

at the supposed "slandering keyboard warriors".

Yes, Senator Clinton has proven to be a tenacious fighter and she absolutely will continue to be a force in our party. I think a highly placed job in the Obama administration, like SOS, ought to be considered.

[OPERATIONMINDCRIME]

57. The Elbow Jab Was The Whole Point. Jesus.

The whole point of the OP is to send a smack of reality to the morons who squawk how she should be kicked out of the party blah blah blah, even while she's done more than these keyboard slanderers ever will. So if I left that part out, the whole reason for the OP to begin with would've ceased to exist. This wasn't some feel good "awwwww, let's all get along" thread. It was a "shut the fuck up about her being kicked out of the party you friggin moron, she's done more than you ever fuckin will" thread. Clearly there's a difference LOL.

[Warren DeMontague]

67. Keyboard warriors? What are you typing on? Let me guess- a keyboard?

I was ready to agree with the spirit of your post until you had to bring in the old timey "nut roots activists" type language that we started hearing when Lamont beat Lieberman. You guys dont know when to quit with that stuff.

But enough of memory lane-In any event, I agree that we could still see more great things from the Clintons- and I'm ready to fight McCain whenever you are. :)

[Forkboy]

69. Shhhh.

;)

[Dr Fate]

72. It's funny- I heard all about "key board warriors" and "nutroots"- from- Tada- The internet itself!!

In other words, the folks who go on & on about the "keyboard warriors" spend as much time typing on their keyboards as anyone.

It's hard to believe they don't see the hypocrisy & irony in using those monikers...

83. I heard the same crap when all the DLC/Blue dog types were defending Lieberman too.

"Stop attacking him- he's a good DEM- you key board warriors are too radical, blah blah blah."

How about that one for being grounded in reality- he turned out to be the swine that the "keyboard warriors" said he would be.

The clear eyed "key board centrists" got it wrong- just like they got Iraq & everything else wrong. Grounded in reality indeed!

You guys dont have a problem with folks who engage in "keyboard" discussions just like you- you just have a problem with liberals & anti-Bush moderates who disagree with you.

And it's a morAnic nose- you guys have your own way of spelling it, remember? ;)

But enough of Memory lane- are you ready to take on McCain? I was born ready.

[TeamsterDem]

70. She deserves a place *IF*

she quits trying to rip apart the presumptive nominee. Otherwise she's showing that she's got no regard for the party and, as such, the party shouldn't have any regard for her.

[Umbram]

71. I hope HRC can bring some of her fighting spirit during the GE

if not for Obama then for Dems across the country. POTUS is just one piece of the pie. We need a majority that can and WILL stand up to the Rethugs.

[goldcanyonaz]

[last1standing]

85. She does have a place.

But the importance of that place diminishes with each day she uses race-baiting as a campaign ploy. It diminishes each day she attacks Obama instead of McCain. She has chosen this path for herself so while you respect her fight, don't begrudge the winner from performing the coup de grace when he is force to do it.

"No surrender" also means "You'll never take me alive".
