Thread Name: BS: Feingold to Obama Supporters: Cool it!
Subject: RE: BS: Feingold to Obama Supporters: Cool it!
It isn't about Hillary being treated unfairly. It is about Obama's supporters acting like juvenile assholes, and giving the Democratic party a black eye.

So keep up your campaigning for McCain there, Bobert. So far Obama's supporters are doing a bang up job of driving general election voters into the Republican camp.

Your boy is beating Clinton, but still you beat up on Clinton's supporters, for no other reason than it feels really good to you to treat "the enemy" like shit. Obama's supporters wouldn't do it, if it didn't make them feel better. Bullying other people makes insecure people feel better. This is a textbook case of bullying and intimidating and harrassing Clinton's SUPPORTERS. Democratic party grassroots activists and voters who are on YOUR side.

You can ignore Clinton. But Clinton's supporters are the very people Obama will need to win in November.

Feingold's point, I think, was this. Obama is ahead in the popular vote, delegate count, and most national polls, when compared to Clinton. So why this vicious "let's stone Hillary Clinton to death" shit? It just alienates people.

When compared to McCain in the national polls, Obama is behind McCain.

Get it?
