well, if you'd ever participated in an election... (none / 0)

before, you'd know what happens when someone finally wins the nomination.  about a third of the loser's supporters will completely disappear, someone won't even vote in the upcoming election, and a large number will never be involved in politics again (at least, not for another candidate).  another third will vote, but won't be involved to any large extent.  and the final third will take their energy to another campaign, at a different level of elected office.  that's a pretty steady trend over time...

Re: For Edwards and Obama Supporters Only (none / 0)

I can't believe Obama and Edwards supporters are attempting a coup on MyDD. Clinton supporters have every right to express ourselves. Are you trying to limit free speech here? Are you saying Clinton supporters are not part of this Democracy or the Democratic Party? I have said it before, Clinton supporters are the minority on this site and we do our best to be heard. If you can't step up to the challenge then don't come here anymore. This is digusting and a pointless diary.

If you're tired of Clinton supporters speaking out then leave the site or step up to the debate like a civilized person. What you are doing is organizing comparable to a coup.

Preventing one candidate from becoming the nominee is typically what supporters of differeing candidates tend to do in primaries, isn't it?

Also, I don't think there's anything wrong with opposing people with multiple user-names... so again, maybe you could point to what terms of use I've violated?  If you can show that I'm violating the rules, I'll delete this diary.

Re: For Edwards and Obama Supporters Only (none / 0)

One Edwards/Obama supporter is suggesting the following on 'openleft', scary stuff on a site who's 'stated' purpose is to advance 'progressive agenda'....


Well, Duh (0.00 / 0)
To be more specific, opposing candidates need to work to drive up Hillary Clinton's negatives among likely primary voters.
One avenue is to find a clear wedge issue where a candidate can distinguish himself from HRC.  I actually believe that she is a skillful enough politician to avoid being pinned down on specifics sufficiently to make residual forces that issue.  For someone like Obama to find a wedge, he's going to have to work actively against unity in the Senate caucus.

The other avenue is to unleash some heavy negative campaigning.  I wouldn't necessarily attack along the same vectors, but I'd hammer her as hard as Republicans would in a general election, coming pretty close to running a "scorched earth" campaign that could cost her the presidency if she is the nominee.  I wouldn't outright lie about things that are provably false, but I would rely on gossip and inuendo.  I'd have someone follow her around with a video camera and try to bait her into a "macaca" moment.  Ideally, I'd try to bait her into reacting angrily so that I would have footage that I could point to as evidence that she is "shrill".

Along that line, I would also work to demolish Bill Clinton's triangulating DLC legacy by funding scholars to right books on how the Clinton presidency set back the progressive movement.

You guys and gals have spouted some of the most vile shit at Hillary supporters imaginable. So can we at least have a discussion based upon facts? If you want some kind of truce, let's discuss it. Many of the same people making these complaints are the same folks that attempted to label Hillary supporters as Bots. Now we are trolls and hunt like a wolf pack. Get real! Obama and Edwards supporters have been organized for a long time. Witness the diaries that suddenly get on the recommended list with only 4 or so comments. That just isn't realistic. But for some reason you think that shit like that will pass unnoticed. We can all get along and respect one another. But you folks have to start respecting Hillary supporters because as you have learned, we can hit back. And we don't fight like girls.

I'm angry with myself for responding to anything in this dairy, but I can't let that go..  MyDD is not the sanctum of Edwards/Obama supporters only.  Anyone can comment on any diary they damn well please - that's the whole point.  We have a discussion of the diary and what we think of it. The Hillary trolling squad? Of course, the Edwards and Obama supporters are always well informed, kind, considerate, entirely original and delightful.

Again, the point of having a blog where people can comment is so that people can comment.  That shouldn't be too difficult to grok. Edwards supporters are free to comment on pro-Hillary diaries, and vice versa.

I don't subscribe to the limited viewpoint that all the other candidates supporters are vile pigs.  I tend to disagree with them about some things, but that's why I'm here.  I want to discuss these things and hear what other people have to say.  If you want to have a discussion where everyone agrees, you should start (or join) an Edwards or Obama only site.  This isn't one of them.

Why the hell did you have to come to this thread if you have absolutely no business being here?

This is the kind of vitriol that simply isn't helpful.  We have every right to be here, and here we shall stay.  Certainly, there are a few people(on each side) that add nothing to the debate.  That reflects only on them.  You call it trolling when a Hillary supporter comments and says something you don't like.  It's biased when one of us says something, but when one of your guys comments, I'm sure it's completely reasoned and detached.

I wonder what the reaction would have been if one of my fellow Hillary supporters had written a diary calling for us to unite to destroy Obama.  I imagine the reaction would have been swift and furious, and rightly so.  The reaction would have been the same from me.  This diary is shameful, and deserves to be called out as such, whether you think Hillary supporters have a right to speak or not.

Because I don't accept the premise.  If the diarist had used the same title to espouse a great idea about how to create positive diaries about Obama or Edwards (or whoever), there would have been no problem.  But that's not the idea in this diary; the point is to bring down Clinton.  Why would you expect Clinton supporters not to respond to that, no matter what the title of the diary is?  If I wrote a similar diary calling out only Clinton supporters, I would be just as out of line, and you would be right to call me on it.

This is a public blog, and it think it's ridiculous to think that any diary you write will be read and commented upon only by those you wish to comment, no matter what the title of the diary is.

Answer why the Hillary mob always finds it swell to swarm post in every single Diary that they find unfavorable; yes there may be a few good comment, but most of them are just the same old bullshit they'll always say (areyouready for one).

Because we are defending our candidate.  That's what supporters are supposed to do.  Are you really trying to say that  Clinton supporters shouldn't post in diaries we find unfavorable? You seem to be suggesting that we should just let it go when someone diaries something that we think isn't true or accurate.  I would never suggest that Edwards supporters just stand mute when an Obama or Clinton supporter makes a false charge.  Much the opposite, they should vigorously oppose that.  Why are Clinton supporters now allowed to do the same?

And please don't tell me that Clinton supporters are the only ones guilty of name calling and poor manners, 'cause it simply isn't so.

I have not yet chosen a candidate to support (none / 0)

I'm hoping to be convinced eventually, but I have already been meet with rudeness and uncivil activity -- so I sent you one anyways.

Re: For Edwards and Obama Supporters Only (none / 0)

You losers can do your best or your worst. It is a sign of utter desperation that you would make such a proposal. And it is kind of funny that you feel the need to gang up to stop the will of the Democratic party.

All this yapping about how MyDD has been destroyed because of Hillary supporters. I wonder if you even believe in democracy? No one here stops anyone from writing or reading diaries. So make your case for your candidate. If you can't take the criticism of your candidate's positions then you probably shouldn't be representing them. If you have something to say, say it.

Re: For Edwards and Obama Supporters Only (none / 0)

Thanks for making the point of why I'm sending an email to Vox.

I can take the criticism of 'my' candidate. What irritates the hell out of me is that Hillary supporters personally attack the non-Hillary supporters - a style learned, I guess, at the feet of Ann Coulter.

Losers, indeed.

Losers?  That's not particularly helpful, DoIT. Completely unnecessary.
