I was reading the comments on Fark about the primary results last night and kept seeing references to "hillaryis44.com", so I checked it out.

Oh. My. Lawdy.

The people that comment on the blog postings make me ashamed to be a democrat. They believe that the media is completely against Hillary Clinton. They also seem to now be claiming that they will not vote for Obama in the general election. I also read several "I'LL BE DONATING TO MCCAIN!!! NOBODY DONATE ANY MONEY TO THE DNC!".

Somebody shoot me.

Are there any rabid Hillary supports here that can explain the complete hatred for Obama? I'll admit, I'm an Obama fan, but I certainly don't hate Hillary Clinton. I'll also admit that I believe she should bow out.

These people are stupid. Only an idiot would say "My preferred candidate is no longer in the race. Rather than vote for someone with a virtually identical voting record, I will vote for the polar opposite out of spite." Which is all it is. It's spite. Obama knocks Hillary out of the race, so he is obviously the enemy. You can't vote for the enemy!

Don't let them get to you. I predict that none of these Hillary supporters who claim they will vote for McCain over Obama will actually follow through. And if they do, fuck em, they are dumb.

Most of them are lying. They will support Obama. I understand them better than they understand themselves.

4-8 more years of voodoo deficit economics on steroids the likes of which will take a couple or more generations to fix & prolonged wars in the middle east sucking the coffers dry and the untold thousands more deaths and maimings of our troops vs. a new fresh beginning aimed directly at benefitting middle america and the cutting off of the spoon feeding of the oil robber barons?

geez...don't these folks know how funny they would look running around without their noses?

You don't understand anything. Roughly half of the people that are supprting Clinton aren't supporting her just because they really like her. We're supprting her because, for one reason or another, we really dislike Obama. We're disgusted with what the Democrat party is trying to do. Like the voters that turn out in the GE, most are centrist Dems and independants. We don't want gimmick politics and we don't want extreme left or extreme right agendas shoved down our throats. We'll vote for the candidate that has the most proven record of working close to the center, whether he is Dem or Republican. If McCain stops pandering to the far right of his base and comes back to the center, where he usually is, he'll smoke Obama's ass plain and simple.

Hillaryis44 has been a source of constant entertainment for me for the last couple months. The sheer amount of crazy on that site is unbelievable. The people on that site are actually republicans who simply want to vote for a female, there isn't another reason.

Wow, just when I thought you couldn't come up with anything more servile and pathetic to say, you spew this.

'We're disgusted with what the Democrat party is trying to do'.

THEN WTF DO YOU SUPPORT HILLARY FOR, GENIUS?

If you don't like Dems, vote Indy or Rep, FFS.

Blah, blah, it's all rubbish. Nobody with a brain who's actually seen this poll believes what people are saying in it. It's of less relevance than a smoking fat man saying on new year's eve that, by golly, next year he'll finally kick his habits.

We'll see in November. If you do the numbers based on what the proles are claiming they'll do, McCain will have a landslide victory, so we'll see :0

Most people are supporting Hillary because they are lazy/embittered and want her to steal more wealth to take care of them like Mommy. When that doesnt' happen they're not going to runaway from home.

She has become more desperate and hysterical and in turn we see her frustrated supporters echo her sentiments, none of whom have heard of sour grapes' lesson, but in practice will not go from a socialist like Hillary to a neo-con when there is another democrat they can support.

I posted a thread here a while back collecting posts where Clinton is called a bitch and worse. If you think the hate is one-sided, you are incorrect.

I'm trying as hard as I can to find where I said the hate was one-sided. I cannot find such a passage.

I could collect posts about Obama being called a Muslim (oh noes!) and worse. So this is going to go nowhere fast.

Sorry, that was the tone I got from your post, my mistake. I think most Hillary supporters do not hate Obama, they merely don't like the fact that someone other than their choice is going to win, and a select vocal group (in the minority) are using their anonymity to express their disapointment on the Internet in as crass a fashion as possible. I can't imagine anyone on tv saying they hate Obama seeing as how he's so inoffensive.

considering how similar obama and hilary's platforms are on the issues, this is just a cop-out to either conceal racism, or just plain ignorance that obama is some radical left wing socialist commie pinko crap.

so either you are a racist or ignorant, take your pick.

Is it a requirement that you do meth in order to be a hillary supporter?

You have been a reasonable Hillary supporter and I thank you for it. I am constantly amazed at how ones emotional attachments and the identifications that result color people's perceptions. When I began to support Obama and started watching Hillary, whom I have always previously supported, I began to understand why Republicans hate her. I began to feel the same way. As soon as I went from positive to negative toward her how she looked to me completely changed.

Your reasonable support of her, and your pointing to the nastiness being thrown her way, coupled of course, I guess, with my own brilliance and deep love of objectivity ;), helped me to back off some and observe this change and relate it to the obvious fanaticism of others. We humans, in my opinion, are amazingly pathetic and profoundly superficial. I also find myself liking Hillary a lot more now that she has lost. :)

===========

Since JFK the retrograde forces of conservatism, nasty mean spirited frightened conservatism, greedy white, preserve-my-privileged-wealth, conservatism has succeeded in halting the evolution this country needs to achieve, and the world needs to go through, for humanity to survive. The larva must pupate to become a butterfly. We have been on a long march to extinction and humanity is awakening. A mighty tide is rising and as it does the walls erected to keep it away are built higher and higher. It's darkest before the dawn. Obama rides the tidal wave and brings hope to the future. We will awaken or we will die.

UPDATE: 75% of the country are meth addicts. This doesn't help battle the elitist image you know.
