You know better than that. You're merely being disingenuous in this claim. Even if Obama supporters referred to each other as kids (I have never seen Obama supporters on mydd or dkos do this), that does not mean that it would be a reasonable idea to call Obama supporters kids when you are attacking them. I have noticed many Clinton supporters calling each other (and their candidate) girl, but I would never think to refer to Clinton supporters as girls and then try to excuse it by claiming that they call each other that.

linc, didn't you post approvingly on the "Grow up, people" diary only a few hours ago? Admittedly, you did say "you first."

You know what it is all really about (2.00 / 0)

its about Obama supporters here, insisting on winning the battle of who did what and who is really the bad guy. Its apparently obvious that that is the case given the reaction to my reference to Obama supporters as Obama kids. You are being disingenuous if you claim you have never seen anyone Obama supporters no refer to themselves as kids.

My point, to map's hanging assertion that all the bad things that Clinton supposedly did in this campaign are merely the way it is- fact if you will, is that that is one battle you all will not win. It is probably the sorest point- evident by the fact that 8 Obama supporters took it upon them selves to give my quite innocuous comment a troll rating.

Re: You know what it is all really about (none / 0)

Okay, that is fair. I think both campaigns did moderately shitty things, but nothing in this campaign compares to the stuff the Dems did to each other in 2004 or the stuff Bush did to McCain in 2000.

I really can't recall ever seeing Obama supporters refer to themselves as kids, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
