Wow. Did I log into Khmer Rouge Underground? What's with the SORE WINNERS?

Be careful Obama supporters. Remember, most of the supporters of either Clinton or Edwards will go to the other if one drops out unless you learn how to stop pissing them off. Together they have 60% and your guy has 37. You're supposed to make "believers" out of their supporters but so far you're just acting like a gang of thugs.

I haven't seen anybody be anything except excited about Obama's speech and the large youth turnout.

You know how to read.

.

I neglected to read a few of the same threads you have; it has been a busy night here. Care to enlighten?

Sorry, chum.

then take this opportunity to publicly prove my ignorance and show me.

It's definitely nothing to characterize all of DU about, though.

But we can post a cazillion homophobe threads, is that it?

a bunch of this going around

Many of the anti-Clinton folks are anti-Obama as well.

and would be happy with anybody beating Hillary - what's that got to do with SORE WINNERS. I don't get it.

Literally. I'm not going to wade in deeply but hope like anything it vanishes in the morning if not sooner.

No way to win, and not worthy of my candidate, that's for sure.

Obama supporters have not been doing their candidate proud, tonight. Just a whole lot of arrogance and attacking of Edwards/Clinton.

IMHO. We let through information which tends to confirm our biases, and filter out that which contradicts them. As an Obama supporter, I look through these threads and see a preponderance of anti-Obama rhetoric. I suppose its the same for supporters of other candidates.

I think just about everybody is being pretty gracious tonight. It's not like we're going to start kissing Hillary's ass because we beat her. Like i said in another thread, I have nothing against her supporters at all, I just don't like her as a politician.

others have been spouting garbage. The mood is very cordial here tonight for the most part.

If you want to lend a hand to your candidate in NH with the undecideds who may frequent DU, you may want to lay off the devisive, inflammatory posts.

the DEMS won tonight as exemplified by the turnout... We all won.

Even Hillary recognized that in her gracious speech.

...just sayin'

I was getting sick of Obama supporters throwing mud in everyone else's faces. So arrogant and ungracious. I was really shocked by it -- did not expect them to get so nasty.

Now eat that crow!! http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=3942996&mesg_id=3942996

Thanking Mark Penn -- even I, an Edwards supporter, realizes how dangerous taunting a Clinton can be ... obviously Obama and/or his supporters believe he is 'bigger' than all that

well -- good luck

Gloating isn't terribly attractive.

Obama had a fine showing and gave a fantastic speech. There is absolutely nothing wrong with cheering a strong performance.

I have no candidate at present, so I can say this with confidence that it is somewhat objective: there is plenty of gloating going on, and it isn't pretty. You simply choose not to see it.

I have not seen "gloating" beyond what I would expect from any supporter of any candidate that had the night Obama did. As a caveat, of course, I may have missed the odd asswipe, but those exist in every population. Care to show me examples of this widespread Obamite inappropriate behavior?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=3946545&mesg_id=3946677

If that isn't gloating, the word shouldn't exist.

Edit: not to mention the two or three dozen "Hillary is finished" posts.

Sounds like DU's still pretty level-headed.

"Eat crow" is not cheering. Agreed?

is not "Khmer Rouge Underground" or "a gang of thugs," as the OP to which you gave your hearty agreement stated. Agreed?

be my guest.

Good evening.

Like this one:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=3945697&mesg_id=3945697

At least I'm on the right website.

Hillary, which is also the only "democrat" that I would vote for him over.


So I've played your game, why don't you play mine? Why are you picking and choosing the threads you want to bitch about?

Anything that says "eat crow" is a sure sign. But if I saw a thread like that I posted that that's not cool.

But there were a whole lot more of just "woohoo" threads about Obama tonight.

was tb'ed. Not that I care, but that is definitely gloating.

But did anyone here really not expect supporters of who ever won do to things like this?

I have to say, the majority of people have been gracious tonight.

...it was something INCREDIBLY rude, like "He's toast! 24 hours before Obama quits the race! Bye bye Barack!!"

So if they kicked THAT....well, turnabout is fair play, right?

will see if obama can go nationwide with the clinton organization. I doubt serious obama can because after n.h and s.c other then illinois I see no other state obama will carry...do you? enlighten me..

I asked you that in another thread and you completely ignored it.

:loveya:

all the candidates have rude supporters. :shrug:

I am not surprised at the continued anti-Obama sentiment on DU. It will always be here.

I wouldn't equate a few "Ha Ha" douchebags on a message board with Khmer Rouge on a hangover day. That's a very weird line of reasoning if you ask me.

Full disclosure: I'm an Obama supporter, but I'm not blind to the fact that there are plenty of nasty-ass idiots who claim to be the same.

EDIT: I also don't like the idea of "winners & losers" with regards to DU. The only "losers" I care about are the Republicans. We're ALL going to be winners when the eventual Democratic nominee wins the general election in November.

yes, kiddies that was sarcasm!

I can't for the life of me fathom what the man stands for. They've pushed me further from their candidate than imaginable. They act like I owe their candidate a vote. It's a passive aggressive campaign.

Losers?

Start with a ridiculous comparison in the subject line -- Khmer Rouge Underground !!! -- pit the supporters of the top three candidates against each other then leave, without adding one bit of additional input.

(You also have it backwards, whatever the tone of the concession speeches, Edwards and Obama are the "Change" candidates, and their supporters have more in common with each other, as a rule. The Clinton folks are favoring win-at-any-cost nostalgia, and probably have the least progressive agenda.

Not based on the actions of a few silly posters on a website. I'm an Edwards supporter who likes Obama very much, and some of the pro-Edwards posts I've seen here in the past few days have really embarrassed me. So it's not just Obama supporters or Clinton supporters or whoever else that does this.

Pick you candidate based on the candidate. Not your experience with a few anonymous people on the internet.

The minority of honest supporters will stay positive, and the others will stay with all they've got.

The negative threads are sinking like rocks.

and it won't endear Obama to me either.
