Does all the Obama trashing make you want to vote for him even more?

It does me. Weird, huh?

When sexist douchebags make Hillary jokes, I want to protect her. When I hear idiotic crap from men who are probably terrified of the n*gger dick going after Obama, well, you get the idea.

And when I hear some dick whining about 400 dollar haircuts...

that is for sure.

I'm an Edwards supporter, but aside from that, I'm a root for the underdog kind of person. After Obama won Iowa and Clinton was kind of down, I was rooting for her to win New Hampshire (I knew Edwards wouldn't).

What I don't like is what I see as unfair attacks and I will defend any of our candidates from them.

i'm just really tired of it from both sides.

i don`t mind the if it was at least civil but sometimes it just to much to take. the bashing kennedy endorsement threads were really idiotic.

for the person that i really, really want. In the ge i'll vote for the dem just like last time around but the primary, it's still like fantasy football.

If you still want to support someone who isn't even in the race, just vote for a Democrat who will actually be on the ballot! Voting Kucinich is the same as giving the Repubs one more vote!

now that REALLY makes me want to vote for him even more.
i was going to vote for edwards, but thanks to hillary's disgusting shenanigans, i'm going for obama come 02/05.

a viable criticism. None of them are perfect, but he's my guy. :hi:

I never expected this Clinton hate from the left - took me completely by surprise.

I am stunned at the hatred for her.

Is if she's that disliked by some/many on the left, and you know the fascist will rally to vote against her, what does that say about our GE possibilities?

It's what the candidates do and say that really counts. Their supporters or detractors can be a bit over the top. All that hyperbole just makes me inclined to ignore the posts.

Mz Pip
:dem:

This is a first.

in early voting in Florida, although it won't matter.

I didn't want to vote for him before it and I don't want to vote for him now. I'm still an Edwards backer.

I've posted some threads critical of Obama, but they're hardly "trashing".

not "trashing." If you want to know what "trashing is" take a look at the posts against HC.

not at all. I will vote for him if he is the nominee but I will definitely have to hold my nose to do it.

As far as I can see both Obama and Clinton supporters are doing a lot of trashing. Neither of them are all that attractive.

I still support John Edwards. I have already voted for him.

...even though my favorites have been others. The same has been true for Hillary, incidentally. I tend to get a little protective of any of our Dem candidates when I see people piling on the attacks. Once we have our nominee, whoever it is, we'll all be on the same side again. Just wish everyone would remember that.

That's for sure.

passion is a good thing, though I wish we'd all keep our eyes on the real goal...

But the behavior of the Clinton campaign this last week? Oh heck yeah.

BRING IT ON!!!

but all the Clinton-bashing has made me support her even more.

They are the definition of sleaze bags.

but rather, acting emotionally.

what trashing? by people who realize the only reason he is running for president is because he knows he can get buzz by being the firt black candidate not in the mold of jesse jackson and al sharpton? I mean i have nothing against black people, I am merely stating what Joe Biden said. Biden said it best, the politically correct media just shut him down.

I like him personally, many of his supporters here are the biggest ass holes I've ever seen.

Stamping a few overzealous supporters on to the candidate himself is pretty shallow and, well, dumb.

lol - I didn't start the topic, but I have feelings about some of the Obama supporters that I think are quite valid.

Because you agree with him (i.e. Obama) and disagree with me (i.e. Hillary).

Sanctimonious much?

1. You don't know what I have taken up or not taken up with OP

2. What I said about the silliness of stamping a candidate with the behavior of some of their overzealous supporters, stands unchallenged.

so you have a double standard - which means you were being sanctimonious. Sorry if you were caught being biased, but you've had plenty of time to challenge the O/P for starting this post. :shrug:

if he's the nominee - I'll vote "present" - since the obamabots are so STRONG in their defense of this action by obama, and I'm SURE they'll understand...:rofl:

if you ask me. the people who hate him and the things they say about him hit me in a well-worn weak spot.

in America, in motivating and inspiring the people of this country to create the best America we can be. His message is about One America, not divisive politics.

That others agree is Great, that others disagree is ok too, it doesn't change my mind.

But it hasn't. It's definitely that way in regards to Senator Hillary. Many of Barack Hussein Obama supporters here are the biggest assholes I've ever seen. I figure they're trolls/moles mixed in with the good supporters.

They're all kind of lack luster since they don't ever talk about specifics to address pressing issues.

I'm tired of spending a grand and a quarter a month for real family health insurance. What the fuck
are any of them going to do about that? Nothing probably, so they can feast on each other talking
about nothing.

When one or several get serious, then I'm all about stopping the mud slinging.

Clinton and Obama don't pay for real health insurance, I do, we do.

Edwards can afford his own.

But for those of us who are not members of Congress or worth $25 million, well, it's just hard for
me to get to worried about the bruised egos of people wanting my vote who won't tell me what they're
going to do.

to support the eventual nominee. Screw anyone who wants to trash Democrats.

The two campaigns' whining and complaining is really off the charts.

The other side must be ecstatic.

and that actually increased my respect for her and made it easier for me to support her on this forum.

To put a positive spin on this theme, hopefully Obama's supporters have learned new positive things about him that are useful to know also, as a result of having to defend him from attacks here.

Peace. I hope to be in unity with you all one way or another soon

When has ANYONE bashed Obama? Here? Cable Media? Please share.

So the bickering is a waste as far as I am concerned- and yes it takes two to tango kids.

It made me a hardened Hillary lover! (And I'm not gay) lol

hype/frivolous hoopla and big $ backers keeps me from wanting to get anywhere near either.

I don't get into fights with Hillary or Edwards supporters who bash Obama. I also don't feel the need to start nit-picking their candidates in a tit-for-tat. I like Edwards well enough and won't trash him just because some folks who like him decide to trash Obama. I'm not as fond of Hillary on her policies, but she's always been a good Dem, so I won't trash her either. Bill, gets my dander up because of his behavior, but that is because of Bill, not because of attack-oriented Hillary supporters.

Instead, as with my vote, I let my checkbook do the talking.

As for the attack-oriented folks, I can only say, "Have a wonderful day!"

I'm saving my powder for McCain/Lieberman or Mittens/Thompson or whoever the Team from Hell turns out to be. Just the prospect of a McCain/Lieberman Presidency is enough to keep me up at night. Whoever the Democrat is to lead the opposition to such a monstrosity, we will have to unite like never before.

I happen to think Obama is the best candidate to lead the charge. You may think Hillary Clinton or John Edwards is better. Well, fine. Let's just not forget who the real enemy is.

Lies, RW memes, twisted words, nasty names, etc. etc. They do not belong in the Dem Party. I can't wait for the Primaries to be over.

Then we can get back to working together and those who were never here supporting the Dem cause can go the hell away.

dont get in thier way of dreaming about the past

i don't let other people influence or manipulate me that way.
