Which group is most responsible for polarizing the Democratic Party?

[Onlooker]

FYI, I asked which group, not which candidate.

1. Who says the Democratic party is polarized?

The DEMOCRATIC PARTY is in no way, shape or form anything like GD-P.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

2. Yep.

[Hoof Hearted]

22. Well one candidate has won more votes from actual voters and the other one acts like he's entitled.

Yeah, it's polarized.

[DrDan]

3. a quick visit to GD-P confirms reality

[onehandle]

4. Karl Rove. nt

[RiverStone]

5. What a negative poll

I doubt this will be relevant for long once we only have ONE nominee. The party will unite when our focus shifts exclusively to McCain. Soon...

6. Even if we don't count DU, Clinton supporters in the "real world" are far worse

[lumberjack_jeff]

7. Where's the option for "people who ask democrats which kind of democrats suck worst"?

[BzaDem]

8. In terms of just DU, how can it not be the former?

Any objective person would at least say that there are far more Obama supporters than Clinton supporters here. I would also say that there are far more Clinton-hating Obama suporters than Obama-hating Clinton supporters here.

Given the huge discrepancy, it's hard to see how a tiny minority of DU could really rattle a much larger group of people. In reality, the toxic environment (caused at least in part by people who have hated Hillary long before this primary, because she is not liberal enough for them) caused most Hillary supporters to leave, and many of the remaining to harden their feelings against Obama.

9. Coming from a NEUTRAL position,

as a supporter of neither,

THEY ARE BOTH EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DIVISION OF THE PARTY.

Asking that question of Clinton supporters will get you one answer, and Obama supporters will get you another. I expect your poll results will reflect the fact that one candidate has more support at DU than the other.

As a Democrat who is disgusted with both, I don't find either side to be somehow better than the other.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

10. Neither! The Democratic Leadership Council has been most damaging to the Democratic party! n/t

[Buzz Clik]

11. I was squarely on the fence until Clinton made her intentions clear.

She is in it for herself and no one else. She -- not her supporters -- is responsible for this.

[iamthebandfanman]

12. lol so many votes, so few posts. n/t

[IsItJustMe]

13. Other: Hillary and Bill Clinton.

[rock]

14. I'm going with the side that is conituously calling for

the other side to drop out before the race is over.

[Catch22Dem]

15. The race is over nt

[Kahuna]

16. Hillary supporters who believe a black man didn't wait his "turn." nt

[Suzie57]

17. freeper agitators

[MethuenProgressive]

20. Ayup.

[george_maniakes]

21. or just agitators in general. same guys who turn crowds into mobs...

by throwing that first brick for no reason other than to cause misery.

[TygrBright]

18. Other: Democrats. n/t

[MethuenProgressive]

19. You post this with only a few dozen Clinton supporters left on DU?

Why not just poll at an Obama rally?
You're polling a group that is 98% HillHaters on who they hate...
