OK - so I deleted the Button thread

Not some thing I would want to make the "DU Greatest" list anyway

as far as the poll goes - 65% of DUers, Hillary fans, and Bernie supporters alike either wanted them gone or didn't approve of them what so ever. And that was the results of a Push-Poll mentioning the politics of the 3rd Way Smear machine being used against Bernie.

So note to Hillary supporters: while unequivocally I am a Bernie Supporter, deep down some where inside me (God only knows where) I genuinely like and admire Hillary. Her perseverance, her tenacity, professionalism, and dare I say her "Presidential Stature". I just feel at this time Bernie is better for the country and I don't care what the long shot odds are of him making it - I stand with Bernie.

And just as many many posters mentioned in the thread - the Bernie Campaign is not about crude attacks and doesn't need them, nor disrespectful things like that button.

While at the same time - many are disheartened and delusioned by the Rovian like Artful Smears waged against Bernie by Hillary surrogates such as the 3rd Way or even Hillary herself.

You should at least acknowledge if not completely admit attacking Bernie's record on Civil Rights was a very low blow which fuels things like that button

Have a nice primary
Peace
