Congratulations to DUer DURHAM D! Her DU post made it to Hillaryhub.com!
First story, middle column:

"The bashing here is a major part of the reason I recently made a decision to support her.

As an old feminist I realized I was standing on the sideline of the most important game of my life time. I decided since she has the guts to continue in public service and can take the hits at a whole new level the least I could do is try and get her back. She doesn't need to win for us to win.

I am grateful that she reminded me to never give up."

9. Thanks.
Feels good to smile a little.

I have been feeling overwhelmed by position taking and decision making by DU posters that are driven by (but not recognized as) right wing slime. I constantly remind myself that regular Dems and the general electorate reach decisions in a different way. I am a little embarrassed that I didn't make a decision earlier but since I have I feel great and very determined.

When Bill Clinton was running the first time I worked as a full time volunteer for a month. I figure this time the least I could do is two months, maybe four. Hell, I might even take early retirement and give it a year.

25. It don't get any better.
Hillary and my favorite Supreme.

I'm going to see Mary in December in SF.

Mary's donated to Hillary's campaign. She also sang at the White House for New Years 1999/2000. Sounds like Mary is supporter of Hillary.

Life is good!

If Hillary can get Diane, Mary and Cindy back together .... she can solve all the worlds problems. :silly:

28. I just saw something about that ..
Edited on Fri Aug-24-07 08:35 PM by ronnykmarshall
Stevie in an interview I saw last weekend .... "I called everyone and said .. 'We've got to do this for Bill'" Fleetwood Mac performed for President Clinton at the White House right before he left office.

I gotta tell ya. When I watched the 1992 convention and they closed with "Don't Stop" ... if I wasn't a democrat before ... that sealed the deal.

29. If you have a chance, catch their DVD
http://www.amazon.com/Fleetwood-Mac-Dance-Lindsey-Buckingham/dp/630463949X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_8/105-0819783-4093212?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1188006330&sr=8-8">The Dance

One of the few live performances that is better than the actual album. It "rocks" no pun intended.

30. I have it.
"Silver Springs" is the best performace on that. I think that concert was very healing for everyone in the band. Stevie and Lyndsey will always love each other.

31. I also love Dreams.
Such a great song. Indeed, the dynamic between Stevie and Lindsey was really interesting.

I too own the DVD, probably the best 20 bucks I ever spent. :hi:

8. I see "bashing" is an official Clinton Campaign Talking Point.
Does Hillary Clinton think she's going to win the nomination by playing the victim? It's really unattractive. Instead of screaming "basher" at every person with a criticism, what about standing up for your beliefs and stating your reasons for them. A person running on principles would have no problem defending their positions. All we seem to hear from the Clinton camp is whining.

34. Steph, love, if your goal is to increase the number of HRC converts...
Edited on Sat Aug-25-07 04:21 AM by LeftCoast
...keep doing what you're doing. Your arguments against Hillary are so shrill and truthy that you've just about made me a convert FOR Hillary as well.

38. What about presenting some positive arguments instead of name-calling.
Honestly, if I called Hillary Clinton "shrill" you'd all be screaming sexism. What about telling me what she believes in? Now there's a challenge!

36. "Bashing" is a word that occurs with some frequency at DU
during primary season (as you no doubt remember). ;-)

I wish it were not so.
