Many people on this board are insulting, unpleasant, and seem to have an attitude that anyone who holds an opinion different than theirs is somehow unworthy of conversation.
Why are the Obama people so afraid of this continuing until everyone has voted? Neither will have won enough delegates at that time to put them over the top.
Anger and frustration at each other serves no good purpose.

Anger and frustration at each other serves [sic] no purpose. Neither
do constant mischaracterizations of the truth.
It is not "insulting" or "unpleasant" when posters on a political message board point out untruths, i.e., your insistence that the
Clintons
were asked by the press whom her VP would be was
not an opinion; it was a lie. You could have gotten a free pass for
being confused, but you refused to back down after videos and
transcripts were posted proving that
no one asked either Bill Clinton or Hillary Clinton whom her VP choice would be.
You are not a lovable, wise old curmudgeon. Before I ever came to
this board there were posts accusing you of being a racist. You
constantly twist what Obama has actually said, and you constantly misquote what you yourself have said. You actually posted that the
MSM should quote Obama's words out of context to make him look bad, something you have done in almost every post you have made.
But good news for you: if your candidate takes this audicity-of-hopelessness campaign to Denver, Obama will have barely two months to campaign against John McCain, who by November will
have been campaigning as his party's candidate for eight months.
Hillary will have 5 more months to bloody and maim and cripple Obama.
McCain will win the general election, in part because you and your
candidate don't give a flying fuck about the Democratic party, and
you will get to say:
I told you so. This country is not ready for a black president.
(Not sure where you get your news, but I guess you didn't notice that
Hillary's pitiful lies about her Bosnian trip hurt her a lot more than
the Rev. Wright story hurt Obama. Hillary's negatives are at 48%,
a 7-year high. And the new buzz, which I started hearing yesterday,
is that even if your dream comes true and it appears that Obama is unelectable, the superdelegates will
not give the nomination
to Clinton.)
