Wow, they are alive and paying attention to the primary afterall. Oh wait, they are only angry when their candidate gets exposed for making a mistake. And rather than holding Obama accountable for the gaffe, they claim that Clintons are playing by GOP rule book.
The reality is, the Obama campaign has been recycling stuff out of the GOP playbook since the beginning of the primaries. And if the Obama supporters haven't noticed, they obviously are out of touch with what is going on. The double standard is absolutely appaling.
One comment on Huffington Post from an Obama supporter got me so angry that I had to copy it down. He/she said
First thing that I have to point out by this supporter is that he has no idea what's going on. CNN and MSNBC have been providing biased coverage of the primary that are so skewed to Obama it makes me puke. They are never on Clinton's side, and for them to report it means there is a good reason for it.
And, No it is not about being called bitter, it is about being mocked for lifestyle and values, and ignoring the fact that their economic concerns are legitamate! Also, small town voters & Hillary supporters have been very angry for being called a racist too. It is just not picked up by the Obama supporters because it helps their candidate to win. It is not news because the Obama campaign played the race card to alienate the Clinton supporters. What they don't know is that by ignoring Hillary supporters, they have served to alienate them further and are now tired of being called racists. The reason why Hillary support has remained strong is because the Obama campaign has been completely ignorant and disrepectful to their own party members who don't support their candidate. Hillary isn't doing this to throw the DNC under the bus. She is trying to save our chances by showing that we are going to lose if we make the same mistake again.
Like Lou Dobbs say, "elitism is a frame of mind".
I detest elitism, it is the worst quality in a person. And just because someone is rich doesn't mean they are elite. Warren Buffett is not an elitist. An elitist is someone who presumes to know better than others. An elitist tries to impose their superior judgement onto others without considering what the others are saying to them.
In this case, the DNC and Obama are the liberal elitists who are trying to force the Obama candidate on to the Hillary supporters who support Hillary based on her track records, merit, and contribution to the Democrat party and American people. They are out of touch with the voters in the party and don't even hear them. The Hillary supporters are invisible to them. They are treating them with some paternalistic elitism that is insulting and demeaning. Obama deserves to be exposed for this gaffe. If the democrats are not made aware of this now, they will sure regret it come the general election. The DNC better wake up soon and pay attention because more and more hillary supporters are disenchanted with the DNC's inability to hear them and will leave the party... Listen!
(p.s. Huffington Post continues to amaze me with their putrid & distasteful glorification of Obama. Ariana, you are exactly what Tracey Ulman protray you as, an elitist narcisist.)
