Unhinged

[Sundoggy]

There comes a point where support for your candidate crosses the border into actual mental illness. Clinton supporters are now threatening superdelegates that they will vote for McCain.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/09/clinton-supporters-send-l_n_100979.html

It's not working out that well:

At least two other party insiders wrote the Huffington Post expressing concern over the scope ("I've received emails like this for weeks but tonight it started in mass) and negativity of some of the Obama attacks, including one red-state Democrat:

"I spent my entire life in the two reddest states in the entire U.S. so please excuse me if I fail to discern the nuances of the arguments sent my way this evening in what appears to be an orchestrated campaign to intimidate the remaining unpledged delegates by threatening to leave the party and vote for a third Bush term if I and others like me don't vote for Sen. Clinton," wrote the exasperated superdelegate. "I have been uncommitted throughout this campaign because I wanted to see how the candidates performed in a variety of settings. I am proud of them both. But I am horrified by this effort to threaten votes for McCain if super delegates don't vote for Sen. Clinton. I have received hundreds of emails from both sides - but I can say without exception that I have not received a single email from an Obama supporter that threatened a vote for McCain if I didn't support Sen. Obama. You really ought to be ashamed."

And some think it's time to call a truce with Hillary supporters?

To quote Atrios:

Nah. Ga. Hah. Pen.

1. We cant let them steal the suprz!

2. (Ahem) You may want to think that last line.

Many Hillary supporters are nothing but nice, sensible people who will vote for the nominee in November.

[Sundoggy]

5. Fair enough

[ClassWarrior]

7. Agreed. The troublemakers are trolls - or those being manipulated by trolls.

NGU.

26. Yeah but that howl is priceless.

It's worth a good chuckle.

And the Kazoo somewhere in the middle. Who in the world let him in the studio with a Kazoo?

6. Comparing Clinton supporters to Bin Laden? You are a special brand of crazy.

I hope everyone else alerts on you like I am.

[Sundoggy]

9. I changed it

But please, please, put me on your ignore list anyway. I have a feeling we wouldn't get along.

[Marrah_G]

10. yes, you changed it- you still should apologize for that one, it was way over the top

And you aren't going on ignore, you are new. The post could be a fluke.

[Sundoggy]

11. Excuse me...

... but I don't respond to people telling me what I should do. Sorry. Do you?

I repeat: Please put me on your ignore list.

[Marrah_G]

13. I don't generally compare other Democrats and Duers to Bin Laden

If I were to say something that awful and someone called me on it, I would indeed apologize.

[Sundoggy]

14. Thanks for the advice n/t

[Tesha]

12. It is against the rules to "announce" that you are alerting. (NT)

[Marrah_G]

15. Yup- I know it is

However in this case the new poster said Clinton supporters were the same as Bin Laden.

Ever notice that when a freeper wants to insult someone (like say... Obama) they refer to them as "Bin Laden"

So anyway....yes I broke the rules, perhaps my post will be deleted. I'm okay with that.

[Sundoggy]

16. ROFL

Self-pwning is the best kind. But to set the record straight, yes, that was over the top. That's why I changed it. If it makes you feel better to hear "I'm sorry", then yes, I am sorry.

If this isn't adequate, let me know and I will push a reparations bill through Congress for you.

[Marrah_G]

17. Hahahaha- okay now that was funny

"I will push a reparations bill through Congress for you"

Can I use that sometime? great line.

Apology accepted. Welcome to DU.

:hi:

[Sundoggy]

18. ;)

I agree that was over the top. Please note I changed it IMMEDIATELY.

I just have this THING about being told how to act. Poor upbringing, no doubt.

But thanks for completely derailing my thread.

[crankychatter]

21. hey... nobody is allowed to fake humility better than me
