Dear Hillary: Please don’t ask me to support Barky because I won’t. Ever.

It’s all over the press that beginning Friday, Hillary Clinton will be fundraising with the presumptive nominee, Barack Obama. For many of us, I’d say at least a few million, this is a nauseating thought. While we respect Hillary for her loyalty, we will not be joining her efforts. In fact, for me at least, Hillary’s choice to support Obama reminds me of the battered wife returning home to her batterer. Often, these women have no choice. And I think in a way that’s true for Hillary. She’s a Democrat before all else and I’m sure there are other complicated factors. But in a Salon article entitled: Why Clinton Supporters Will Come Back to the Fold, Walter Shapiro argues that I’ll change my mind. His piece carries the subtitle:

Don’t worry about those angry Hillary supporters who say they’ll vote for McCain or stay home in November. History proves they’ll vote for Obama.

The article shows a photo of a Hillary’s supporter, a woman of course, crying and being comforted by another. But this melodramatic display of emotion, Shapiro suggests, is just bluffing. First, to continue the theme of a domestic spat, he compares us to nagging parents. Perhaps because that insult is too banal, he then compares us to George Bush:

As an empty threat, it ranks right up there with “Eat your spinach now or your mother and I won’t pay for college” or even George W. Bush’s taunting promise to get Osama bin Laden “dead or alive.” During the post-primary news lull, ardent Hillary Clinton supporters have managed to linger in the spotlight with their over-hyped warnings that they intend to sit on their hands or even bolt to John McCain if they are not wooed and won over by Barack Obama.

Yes, the sexism is there: we’re waiting to be wooed. And of course Clinton supporters are holding out because some people, women specifically, are fanning the flames of “feminist grievances. ” Here Shapiro perpetuates the Obama campaign’s sexist stereotyping of Hillary’s supporters by focusing on women, when in fact there are many men actively protesting Obama’s stolen nomination. But when the “Barack-and-Hillary show” goes on air, and the pundits wonder:

Was the joint appearance enough to win over the hardcore Hillary holdouts? The answer is an obvious “yes”…

Shapiro makes the same mistake as others outside the circle of Just Say No Deal PUMAs. He thinks that during the primary there was no “overriding issue…absolutely no ideological reason — beyond ruffled feelings” to keep Clinton supporters from voting for Obama. In fact, he says that the polling done today will not stand up in November:

For example, an ABC News/Washington Post Poll last week found that 24 percent of the Democrats who backed Clinton prefer McCain over Obama. But these numbers will certainly decline as base Democrats gravitate to their party’s nominee with increasing enthusiasm.

Citing studies that indicate that voters come back to the party even though their favorite candidate lost the nomination,” Shapiro seems to think that we will be convinced that Obama WON the nomination. We know that he did not win. This is no longer about Hillary, this is about the corruption of the Democratic leaders. Shapiro joins the ranks of Dean, Pelosi, Brazile, and the Obama-loving media who think we are simple-minded vacuous creatures who will ultimately follow them like sheep to the slaughter. He says:

A common theory is that disgruntled voters, troubled by the direction of their party, end up staying home in November. But with a record-smashing 36 million Democrats voting in the presidential primaries, this is not shaping up as a political year in which anyone will neglect to vote because, say, Whole Foods was having a sale on organic olive oil that day.

Again resorting to sexist stereotyping, Shapiro suggests that “the hardcore Hillary-types” will vote for Obama instead of shopping for olive oil. The media, and the Obama campaign, which of course includes the DNC, since they are now one and the same, are expecting us to develop collective amnesia.

We are going to forget all about Barky stealing the nomination, and insulting Hillary and her supporters. We’re going to forget the farce of the primary, that the decision to put Barky in place came before the first caucus cheating ever happened. We’re going to get over the misogyny and the sexism and the accusations of racism, and the elitism. We’re going to forget that many of us have received death threats from Barky’s insane followers, that our families have been threatened, and that we blog in full knowledge that we could be outed and viciously attacked at any time. We’re going to get over the fact that Barack Obama is an inexperienced, unqualified, two-faced, and a potentially dangerous politician with roots deep within the corrupt Chicago Machine.

Shapiro is certain that we’ll come around, though, even if we don’t know it yet. Well, maybe not those bitter, gun-toting, religious nuts–the blue-collar Dems, but those us who are “errant voters,” we will. In an analogy that is surely a Freudian slip, Shapiro claims that we will be guided by the lights of a roadside hotel, where cheap tricks are scored and whores are on the make, that is, the hijacked Democratic Party:

Party unity is never total — and there certainly are blue-collar Democrats who opted for Clinton in the primaries because she was a placeholder for their qualms about Obama. But for over-the-hill-with Hillary voters, passionate about the notion of a woman president or beguiled by all things Clinton, there will be no dramatic renunciation scene in their political future. Virtually all of them will be voting for Obama, whether they know it now or not. For a political party is a bit like Motel Six, where there is always a light on to guide errant voters home in the dark.

Talk about being in the dark….

Mr. Shapiro truly is in the dark…

He can cite whatever historical situations you wish. The fact is there has never been a primary like this one — so let’s throw history out the window, shall we? Us ‘angry Hillary supporters’ don’t just need to calm down and take a walk. Long held valuable principles govern our actions, not anger or bitterness. Political smarts and an ability to know a sham when we see one forms our decisions and the course we will take. Perhaps that is too uncomfortable a truth for the pundit class to process.

A number of us have already left the Democratic Party and registered as Independents. No matter if Democrats in the past have shown they wouldn’t know how to pick a winning candidate if it bit them, or have not exhibited the spine we would like in Congress, we stuck with them through thick and thin because we thought they stood for something. Now that the DNC has thrown its own principles under the bus, and with them, our voices, which have consistently been ignored, it is much easier for us to walk away.

We will not support Senator Obama for President is that he is not qualified for the job. In fact, there has never been a less qualified or more shape-shifting candidate for President.

I invite Mr. Shapiro to come visit with us on November 5th and see if we changed our minds.

Madam, I am sure if there was anything wrong with Senator Obama’s birth Certificate, the state of Hawaii would have spoken up by now. Unlike yourself being a fictional character of not too good values, you would not have a birth certificate under DeFarge in any state in the Union. so shut up

HE GETS “ARRESTED” BY THREE FEDERAL MARSHALLS WHO TELL LARRY THEY HAVE A WARRANT OUT OF DELAWARE BUT IT IS IN THE CAR. YEAH RIGHT! WITH THE HELP OF THE D.C. POLICE, THEY MANAGE TO HOLD LARRY IN A CELL FOR FOUR DAYS, WITH=HOLDING HIS DAILY MEDICATIONS AND PHONE PRIVILEGE. HE IS NOT TOLD WHAT THE WARRANT IS FOR OR ANYTHING. FOUR DAYS LATER HE IS TAKEN BEFORE A JUDGE IN DELAWARE AND TOLD “THERE IS NO WARRANT”???? WHO IS BEHIND TRYING TO STOP LARRY FROM TELLING HIS STORY ABOUT OBAMA?? BIG FISH WILL FRY ON THIS ONE! “To be honest with you, its not so much whether you believe me or not, as much as you hear me.”

Shouldn’t your name be “bitter old hag from Wyoming?”

If there is something wrong about the birth certificate, it will come out. Trouble with you obamaholics is that you would rather let a cheat into the WH, than call him on his shit…speaks volumes about you and him.

And please don’t clutter up this space with ill-informed, inane postings….and you too might want to STFU!!

Comment by Havoc | 2008-06-25 14:13:14

It does seem that the “hated” DNC would have made sure the birth certificate wasn’t going to be a problem. It doesn’t make sense that they would invest all this time and resources into a candidate that could be so easily debunked. I mean if you ignoramuses could have produced a viable reason to have Sen. Obama removed from the race you would have already. And regards to Obama’s legislative record foxnews.com has an in depth report.

Comment by roseeriter | 2008-06-25 04:32:39

I live about 10 miles from Unity, NH and part of me wants to go, but mostly I don’t want to represent ‘unity’ of any kind with Obama. I will not vote for such inexperience, bully liar as Nobama.

I’d be the one in the crowd Heckling Obama. I’d want to speak to Hillary alone about all this and with all the security..I’ll go kayaking instead.

I recently heard a song on my cable Tv for a pet product.

There ain’t no bugs on me
There ain’t no bugs on me
There may be bugs on some of your mugs
But there ain’t no bugs on me.

Pretty much how I feel about supporting Obama. There are no bugs on me. I am an independent thinker who will judge the candidate’s on their individual competence and merits not just because they are of a specific party. In years past, the party nominee was the best nominee. This yearI just don’t think this happened.

There ain’t no bugs on me!!

That “old lady..” is probably a hairy guy from Gaza.

The trolls using feminine user names are probably all guys — real ugly guys, living somewhere in a hole.

I have an old lady sister in law who is for Obama — but that’s because she buys into the latest fad (or illness). She also is too busy to even bother investigating Obama.

Only the brownshirt koolaid drinking trolls bother to come here.

So “old lady” is probably a teenager and the only old lady he knows is his mom — who just yelled at him for his leaving his dirty cloths in the bathroom.

Hey Wyoming,
Obviously you have nothing to contribute to the conversation.
You know where you can stick that apostrophe.

Your life hasn’t been much more than a comma!

Old lady from wyoming- Here in Texas we have a little old lady from Pasadena. You’ve heard that song I’m sure. Every time I hear that song I think of my mother who passed back in 1991. She lived in Pasadena TX. She was also a woman of morals and respect for others, She was a democrat a true democrat.She raised 6 children by herself through the late 60’s and 70’s. No child support and no welfare. No family help. She was a woman of character and integrity who would cetainly join a group like the PUMAS’. She would be sickened by what has happened in this election as any American would. Certainly any true american woman would. I am assuming you are a woman based on your name. What a disappointment you must be to someone other than the real women on this site like me and Sonia. You see Sonia is expressing her opinions you are just looking to degrade. You are a true follower of hate. Hate will get you nowhere. There is a difference between illiteracy and ignorance. GOD BLESS AMERICA……..

Hey Bitter Old Hag From Wyoming….

I am totally surprised they have the proper reference books in your trailer park for you to peruse and learn about apostrophes. I am sure your mammy and pappy would be so proud…NOT

Now go back and fix the punctuation on this posting of yours:

Madam, I am sure if there was anything wrong with Senator Obama’s birth Certificate, the state of Hawaii would have spoken up by now. Unlike yourself being a fictional character of not too good values, you would not have a birth certificate under DeFarge in any state in the Union. so shut up

Dumbass

polite people don’t show their asses like you do. furthermore, you don’t have a period at the end of your last sentence. you also misplaced your commas making what you wrote not readable or easily understood. so YOU GET SOME EDUCATION.

 

Comment by MEchelle Hates America! | 2008-06-24 20:58:49

You mean like using a capital letter after a period? STFU!

Comment by Salida | 2008-06-25 00:36:09

This thread is funny, lOLLLLL. So the one who is correcting does not use caps after a period?:) Oh, funny!

 

Comment by Salida | 2008-06-25 00:37:00

This thread is funny, I’m just LOLLL!

How Funny - I was just going to ask Sonia if I could copy this and send it to all 218 (and growing) anti-obama sites. A great post!!!

 

Comment by JozefAL | 2008-06-25 00:52:04

Well, “Old Lady”, you might want to offer your criticisms AFTER making certain your own post is free of spelling and grammatical errors.
For starters, you used a period after addressing Sonia (it should have been a comma) and then you have the audacity to use the ellipsis (. . .) incorrectly TWICE. Where you used it the first time, you should have simply used a comma or a hyphen (even a semicolon would be acceptable). In the second instance, a simple period should be used. To be absolutely proper,however, you didn’t actually make a complete sentence (”As you can see as it is used in this post” is merely a dependent clause).
Then when you decided to issue the critique about appearing illiterate, you left yourself open to making yourself appear, if not illiterate, then poorly educated. There was no need for a comma between “trying to say” and “appear illiterate”.
You also (for some reason) chose to use “any thing” rather than “anything” (the more correct form). Splitting the word can be done for effect but, in this case, it was unnecessary.
You also blew it right at the end of your diatribe. You failed to capitalize the first word in the sentence AND you failed to punctuate the end of the sentence.
Take your own advice, “Old Lady”, and get some education before attacking someone else’s grammar.

Last time I checked, you don’t start a sentence with a lower cased letter and after referring to someone by name, try using a comma and not a period. This makes you appear to be illerate as well.

Sonia. when you are writing the contraction “don’t” you do not use a comma…you use an apostrophe. As you can see as it is used in this post…Using a comma makes whatever you are trying to say, appear illiterate and nobody pays attention to any thing you might have had to say. get some education

Obama is black Arab/muslim. That’s may be why he is not producing his real birth certificate.

I personally have timed the attrition of my olive oil with the General Election.

So, good luck Mr. Sap. (Actually, if it goes that far, you will need 2 votes for Obama to cover me voting for McCain.)

Thank you for your confirmation that it will be a cold day in hell before Obama gets to be President of anything.

That’s great. Maybe we all should! LOL

 
 

Comment by Seattle Moss | 2008-06-24 19:45:04

It’s not about Hillary anymore.
The Democrat party has exposed to me that they are not democratic in anyway.
The biased and fixed nominating process has shown me that these New democrats are thugs and Marxists.

They don’t represent me and my values. In fact I despise them now.

 

Comment by disgustedalso | 2008-06-24 19:45:44

I love this blog. It’s as if someone decided to create a place where anyone could turn should they need some way of demonstrating just how bad folks can get when it comes to their political beliefs.

First GW stole the election from Gore. Which I actuallythink has SOME merit.

Now, Obama stole the nomination from HIllary?
Are you folks watching the same news on the same planet as everyone else? Obama for months was showing better in the public opinion polls. He had more money. Hillary could not shake her extra baggage. She was going broke.

The only really sad thing is, to see folks so willingly clutch at any straw, any accusation, if it will soothe their emotionaly formed beliefs. All too common an occurance these days. It would do everyone good, to sit back, take some responsibility, accept what you have, and realize it could get even worse. Mccain could win.

Comment by Seattle Moss | 2008-06-24 19:57:06

Hillary won 9 out of 10 of the biggest states. The Republicans wanted her out of the way so that they could face the patsy.
You Obamabots fell for it.
I’m proud now to vote for a boring old war hero than an anti-American racist.

You were fools to turn on the Clinton wing of the party.
Now you pay for causing the party to loose!

Comment by Acaha | 2008-06-24 20:56:44

Yes — the Obama supporters are causing the party to lose.

This was gamed from the very beginning. Get the stronger candidate out first so you can face the arrogant, inexperienced shape-shifter who reneges on all his campaign promises, has no real legislative achievement and 20 years of nefarious and crooked associations.

John McCain is the luckiest man alive.

I wonder how Obama’s loyal supporters would feel if they did some research and found out just how much Republican money was propping up their candidate? You don’t really think he raised all that money from small internet donations, do you?

Surely, no one is that naive.

Follow the money. The research has been done. You just have to google it. Read articles by Evelyn Pringle for one thing. Look up his votes or the lack thereof.

Follow the money.

 
 

Comment by Medusa | 2008-06-24 20:01:53

Hillary won the popular vote. Obama’s numbers were only as high as they are because:
1. Obama Thugs manhandled and cheated at the caucuses (investigations are in process)
2. He is a puppet of the Chicago Machine of Daley et al.
3. He has big money supporters who are supporting him for their own agenda (Soros, etc)
4. He’s able to delude people like you by his lying, two-faced, racist, bs. He’s a fraud and crook.

Educate yourself somewhere that doesn’t serve kool aid.

 

Comment by db | 2008-06-24 20:06:25

What qualifies BO to be president? Nothing! The man didn’t even serve out a full year as senator.

In the beginning I liked BO. My feelings for him changed when he didn’t want the revote to go forward in Florida & Michigan. It was then that I started to realize the guy was an opportunist that didn’t give a damn about the peoples right to vote.

But that was just the beginning.

Like the article says, it’s so much more than Hillary now. The DNC selected BO. The Super Delegates were suppose to go with the stronger candidate. And all the electoral college maps from the most liberal to the most conservative had Hillary slaughtering McCain. BO could hardly keep up with him. That said, every time she had a landslide against BO that had to bring out someone to endorse him in order to take the spotlight off of her. The last primary, in South Dakota was disgusting. Hillary was once again beating him in a state her was suppose to win and the Super Delegates didn’t even have the class to wait until the primaries were over to fall into line behind BO.

I believe Hillary was railroaded from the gate. It was Dean and Donna Brazille who stripped the voters of Florida & Michigan. That handicapped her from the start.

Yet Hillary fought on, with both hands tied behind her back. The sexist media, outspent by BO 4 to 1 & then the bullying of her own party to drop out.

Why on Earth would a woman in this day & age support a party that treated the first woman candidate, one who persevered & won the hearts & the votes of the people, why would any of us vote for an inept man because he is a democrat?

And forget about using the abortion issue to scare. Ever hear of the morning after pill?

No the only thing frightening would be if BO got into power. He’s another George Bush, just as stupid, and just as uncaring of the people of this country. The only thing different is that he’s the far left. BO &Bush are book-ends.

We women will not forget come November. Our dissent has only just begun!

NOBAMA

“Book-ends”Love that! ya, any creative folks out there need to make some bookends with the likeness of the idiot W and the Precious! I’d pay big bucks for that and send the money to the PUMA party! No wonder the DNP has a jackass for a mascot. Purrfect!

Puma Power kids! We are gonna rock their world come November! Can’t wait to get my hat and bumper stickers!

“Are you folks watching the same news on the same planet as everyone else?”

Hell No! That’s why we actually know what is really going on! Obviously, you think the MSM is telling the truth–your first big mistake. I suppose you believed that Saddam Hussein was an imminent threat too, because THE NEWS told us so. Go to a dictionary andd look up the word: PROPAGANDA. Do you really think “what everyone else is doing” is an intelligent indicator of the best choice? That, in a nutshell, explains why all the sheep are following Obama. He’s the new iPhone.

“Obama for months was showing better in the public opinion polls.” [Which polls would those be? In February? It couldn’t have been in the major swing states where she beat him handily. And it certainly wasn’t the polls that reflected that actual WINNER of the popular vote = Hillary.]

“He had more money. Hillary could not shake her extra baggage. She was going broke.” [And where exactly does that money come from–small donors? Hardly. Do some research: Wall St./sub-prime mortgage industry, the nuclear power industry, George Soros etc. And I wonder why she “couldn’t shake her extra baggage?” Could it have anything to do with the fact that the Obama campaign was feeding the media and public regular talking points created by the right-wing in the ’90’s with flyers, radio ads, and robo calls? And p.s. Hillary raised more money than any other candidate in primary history, besides Obama. Not really a reflection of an “unpopular” candidate.]

“The only really sad thing is, to see folks so willingly clutch at any straw, any accusation, if it will soothe their emotionaly formed beliefs. All too common an occurance these days.” [LOL! That’s a good one. Yea, we’d hate to see people choosing their candidates based on emotion–and not substance–alone. That could lead a nominee who has no actual experience, but makes people feel good by holding big rallies, throwing free concerts, and pretending to be historical figures.]

“It would do everyone good, to sit back, take some responsibility, accept what you have, and realize it could get even worse.” [I totally agree with ‘taking responsibility.’ Does that mean the Obama campaign will admit their vicious and unethical campaign tactics, instead of claiming they are the champions of ‘new politics?’ Will they admit to blocking the revotes in FL & MI? Will they admit to paying off superdelegates and strongarming and abusing Clinton supporters? And how about the DNC & the RBC? Will they admit to manipulating the primary process and selectively enforcing “the Rules” (and violating their own Party’s Charter) so that their favored ($$$) candidate could be carried over the finish line as the voters were rejecting him more and more?

“Mccain could win.” [You bet your sweet a*s he can, and if Obama is the nominee, YES HE WILL!]

Comment by stodghie | 2008-06-24 20:50:04

then if obama is such a money machine, where is they money now. the dnc has four million on hand. obama is chasing checks like a forger. so what gives? it has been reported but this is definitely the sleeper story and one of the most important.

 

Comment by Northwest rain | 2008-06-24 20:52:13

Yes McCain WILL WIN.

Thanks to all the help he’s getting from the Obamaabutts.

So keep coming Obamaaaabutts — keep drinking the koolaid. You idiots are creating new voters FOR McCain every day, every hour, every minute!!

 
 

Comment by It's Not Me | 2008-06-24 22:17:55

Here ya go, SWEETIE:

Some Findings:

* 35.6 million people have voted
* The 37 primary states account for 97% of the vote.
* The 13 caucus states account for 3% of the vote.

Bottom line: Clinton’s lead is from 34.5 million voters (97%) in Primaries. Obama’s lead is from 1.1 million voters (3%) in caucuses.

NEITHER candidate won enough Pledged Delegates to win the nomination and HILLARY won the popular vote. You people really need to stop ignoring FACTS. This is our country we’re talking about and not some grade school popularity contest! Wake the hell up!

McCain could win? I certainly hope so. Why?

If Obama wins, he’ll fall flat on his face, because he has no experience. You can’t blame somebdoy for doing a bad job when they have no experience, because they don’t know any better.

So who can we blame for Obama? Who should take responsibility for his mistakes in office?
Everyone who voted for Obama.

If McCain wins and does a bad job, we can all blame McCain, because McCain has the experience to do the job.

Since I hate to take blame for something that isn’t my very own itty bitty little fault, I will vote for experience and McCain.

REALLY OUT OF TOUCH. Don’t they know we don’t have to rely on Whole Foods to buy our Organic Olive Oil?

Hillary had the real base of Democrats, principle, policy, etc. Barky will get some of the base that vote any ole Dem and that’s it.

They apparently have paid attention to his election and only the horse race.
