Ya i know Rumble, but I was referring to here.

I've always thought Eric was a most reasonable host, one of the few reasons I've stayed.

Maybe it's because Hillary supporters are a bit more grown up, and we don't have tantrums like the Obamaniacs?

I don't think I've been hostile to any Hillary supporter here. I save my hostility for where it's needed. For Hillary herself and her band of cutthroats.

It's not just hostility though, lately it's been mostly posts and opinions regarding the news. We've had at least one of the Wright posts floating around page one for the last few days too.

As for the endorsement, other than adding it the the FAQ and changing the logo there is no other statements on this site about it, it's just a show of support more than anything.

I'm guessing that's a joke?? I had a couple of Clinton supporters jump down my throat for a simple comment about Clinton that had nothing to do with Obama. I'm not even an Obama supporter but I do think he's a better choice.

I would think this wasn't a serious statement on my part;
though the demographics are true

Clinton supporters are just out numbered here. I'm sure if you went to a board that was predominantly Clinton supporters Obama supporters would feel the same way.

I don't blame them this is hostile territory.

Dumb Typical White Boy that I am, I'll stick around so you all have someone to bash .

It's kinna like the Democratic Party in general.
fractured beyond repair.

( and please don't repond " well if Hillary would only drop out")

There is the matter of the rest of the 48 states to vote
I've been fair to Hillary, at least I think I have, at least up til now.
I didn't worry much about splitting the party talk, but lately....

I don't want to hash through everything that's already been said a dozen times, I don't have the energy for that. But the one thing that strikes me is that we're seeing Business-As-Usual Government in a panic because a candidate that is supported by individuals instead of corporations & lobbyists is actually in the lead. Scares the crap out of them.

This is from an Obama Campaign email:
Quote:
In February alone, more than 94% of our donors gave in amounts of $200 or less. Meanwhile, campaign finance reports show that donations of $200 or less make up just 13% of Senator McCain's total campaign funds, and only 26% of Senator Clinton's.

Meanwhile, Senator McCain has raised more than 70% of his total campaign funds from high-dollar donors giving $1,000 or more. Senator Clinton has raised 60% of her funds from $1,000-and-up donors. And both Senator McCain and Senator Clinton have accepted millions of dollars from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs.
Refusing to accept donations from lobbyists and special interests has allowed this campaign to answer only to ordinary Americans like you.
More than one million individual donors gave to Obama's campaign giving an average of $109, and breaking all fund raising records. This SHOULD scare those old farts that have been pulling the strings in Washington since forever. A candidate that owes them NOTHING.

But now I am starting to get a little worried, this stuff coming from the Clinton side (not all from Hillary, but also from her frightened big money backers) is doing more damage to Obama than the McCain camp could ever dream of.
