3. Nah we all sort of naturally gravitate to the underdog
and now that Hillary is starting to look more and more like an underdog she is beginning to gather some support.

7. No, one or two more than that.
But no one expects an Obama supporter to care about facts.

5. Hillary has always had traction here, lots of vocal supporters.
She's been popular on DU for a long while.

14. well i'm not sure
consider the track record

Dennis Kucinich was #1 at DU and then....

followed by John Edwards who was #1 at DU and then...

I'm quite happy for Obama to stay #1 at DU for another few days.

B-)

40. Track Record
Really? The posters here have been that far off mark? It's happened on conservative blogs too, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Is it a sign, do you think, that posters on political websites are really, really, out of touch with what normal people care about?

45. he definitely IS #1, ever since Kerry pulled the donors list from under Edwards
Edited on Sat Feb-02-08 06:48 AM by robbedvoter
A few more people on Du support Hilary now - just as by the time of the switch, a few more - from the initial zero - were already supporting Obama by then.
Of course, by this logic - Gravel will end up winning this one in the end! :+

17. By this time next week, everyone will be madly in love with the Goddess of Peace
DU'ers of all varieties will be walking around in a trance, not knowing WTF hit them, smitten by the hypnotic charm of Hillary, reeling in her wisdom and inhaling her beauty right through their eyeballs and deep into their souls, walking down the street smiling calmly because Hillary is in their daydreams making everything alright. Ahhhh, Spring is in the air, coming staight at us, arm in arm with the Goddess of Peace. Get ready to catch the fever. yeah :smoke:

39. "My friend says" is hearsay, carries no weight.
Let your friend write a letter to the editor for a major newspaper, citing specific facts, sign her name, and then we'll give that anecdote some credence, if it's published. At the least, it will give the editorial staff a chuckle.
