8. Then no. I may mention it a few times, but no intentional gloating,
just happyness. When we win the GE, thats when the gloating begins. I may just get myself disowned this time round.

9. Any analysis of the campaigns that are favorable to the victor and not to the loser
will be construed as gloating.

But real gloating is more fun with people I know personally.

And I don't know anybody right now personally who is a Hillary partisan who I would feel comfortable gloating to.

I will just be nice and invite everyone to join in the defeat of John McMac. Three terms, 100 years, 3 supreme court appointments, over a trillion burgers sold.

Do the math!

10. Gloat or celebrate?
Why shouldn't people be able to celebrate?

13. OOOOhhhhh hell yeah! And when the week is up, I'll alert the shit out of posts bashing Obama...
because some of the posters here are such sad basket cases that I'm sure they won't be able to stop their hating.

15. Considering the rules allow 1 week of hate on the nominee, I plan to be just as hateful.

16. Other: I plan to point out a few things in a calm, civil and reasonable way.
Edited on Sun Mar-30-08 04:53 AM by Political Heretic
No, I would not say that I plan to gloat.

I do however, plan to take issue with some of the vitrolic things that have been said and predicted and point out that the were wrong.

I plan on posting nothing that would be worthy of being removed after the "grace" period.

EDIT - a "calm" way, not a "clam" way...for, that would be weird.

21. That's not correct.
There will be a one week grace period before the crackdown according to skinner.

24. Doesn't that depend on perspective?
After all, if your candidate wins, then it's celebrating. However, if the other candidate wins, then they'll be gloating.

27. My 7 Day Hate will spawn many GBCW's. The desperate wailing of the damned
will be like a sweet lullaby to me.


Can't. Hardly. Wait...

29. I was on the receiving end of that mess from repubs after Bush 'won' in '04
There's no way I'd do anything similar.

31. Let the gloating begin
Obama has already won.

From listening to the Hillary whiners for the last two months on here, we know that to be true.

Then, to prove she's a loser this week, she re-stated her Bosnia lies about her being more "experienced"!
NO "media bias" made her lie, she did it to herself.

Democrats don't tolerate liars in the White House any more.

33. Only if provoked. Let it sink stunk up the joint.
The shit flingers will get their one week amnesty, during which time I will respond to the shit that is flung. Then the zoo closes and the hardcore dead-enders will have to figure out which side of the aisle they are actually on. Week two ought to be very interesting indeed.

34. No gloating, but I WILL sulk if he doesn't
however since sulking will consist of me stubbornly refusing to engage in posting discussions and since I'm not the most prolific poster anyway, I doubt anyone will notice!
