This is the point where pro-Clinton voters make the choice to either stay pro-Clinton and support her as she supports the Democratic nominee and the party, or turn full on into anti-Obama.
Don't be surprised to see the worst examples embrace their anti-Obama identity and completely forget about Clinton. The irony will be astounding - they use a female political candidate to cover up their own anti-Obama issues. They hide behind the valid issues of sexism and UHC to damage Obama, and when Clinton fails to continue to fight against him, they'll completely forget she existed. They'll switch to Rove/Bush/McCain talking points instead. Its already begun to happen.
I agree that sexism and gender issues are still valid concerns, but my problem has always been hiding behind those issues to bash Obama.
I hope you're completely wrong about that, UG. With the exception of a few hard core BO haters, I think we'll all be at the same march to defeat the neocon cocksuckers soon.
Oh my, excuse my potty mouth.
Pottymouth fully justified contextually.
I wish I was completely wrong, but its already started to happen. There were two anti-Obama diaries yesterday defending the Bush/McCain flareup over Bush's comments in Israel. Neither were removed.
Outside MyDD, outside the internet, the vast majority of pro-Clinton people will stay pro-Clinton and therefore pro-Democratic party. That was bound to happen. But those that only used Clinton as an excuse to hate Obama will need to jump to the next available group that gives them cover, and that's the Republicans. The only question is at what point the admins are going to let the hammer drop and realign the site as a pro-Democratic party one.
