The Huffington Post will, I think, manage to carry on with out you.
In any event, either agree with the article, or don't agree - but that smear the messenger crap doesn't work here.

And, again, Hillary supporters regularly post shit from David Brock's "news" sites.

You should, for your own health, find other things to do that don't get your stress levels so high.

Why would any educated person respond to any of the million opinion articles posted on the net?

Moving on now.

There must be a list. "Accuse dissenter of being angry and not well-educated!"

And - for the record - no personal attacks at DU, they just make you look, well, angry and not well-educated, since a well-educated person would have no need to make a personal attack.

Oh, well - 'bye now indeed!

I find it weird, myself. As a progressive, I don't find Progressive support for Hillary a reason to support Hillary myself, I find progressives' support for Hillary a reason to think that for some people, "progressive", like "Democrat" has become a very fucking bendy word.
