If, And I Mean If Hillary Drops Out, Will Hillary Supporters

[Dinger]

still be "allowed" to post pro-Hillary threads here (GD, Hillary Forum)? I am not planning to post anti-Obama threads, but still will want to express my support of her in her political career, whatever that may be.


Thanks,

Dinger

12. that's not true.

[MannyGoldstein]

2. Pro-Hillary Should Be Fine

Anti-Obama? Not so fine.

[Dinger]

10. I Am Not Going To Post Anything That Is Anti-Obama

I like Hillary a lot, even if many here do not. Some here apparently think I have no right to express my admiration here ever again. I repeat, I am not going to post anti-Obama threads here, and if I do, call me on it.

[Why Syzygy]

28. You cannot post her threads in a forum trying to ELECT OBAMA!!!

Why doesn't that make sense to you?

[Dinger]

29. I Never Said I'd Post Them Here

What makes you think In can't make sense of that?

[Oleladylib]

3. She's a democrat..we're democrats...absolutely can post as often and as much as we want.

We hope that we do not have to say "we told you so..in November" but, we'll be here anyhow.

[LaurenG]

4. Why shouldn't they - Hillary is a democrat?

I guess I should ask you to clarify that.

[Ashy Larry]

5. Probably depends on the extent to which she supports the Democratic nominee.

[Why Syzygy]

30. Exactly!

I don't think she will be and I don't think any posts for her here will have pure intentions.
We have been reading their bs for five months already. She LOST. People need to move on.

[ClassWarrior]

34. Yup, if she pulls a Lie-berman and opposes the real Dem...

...support for her will not be allowed here according to DU rules.

NGU.

[IndyOp]

6. I believe so. I hope so. The Edwards and Gore forums are still alive and well.

:hug:

:hi:

[Dinger]

11. If The Hillary Forum Stays, Then I Guess I Can Post There

Answered my own question.

[Adelante]

18. GD, too

GD-P will change to the GE, but GD is always open.

[nadinbrzezinski]

26. GD P will go back to Politics

it's original incarnation, while General Discussion will remain what it has always been

7. PSA and your answer

The hillary forum should be free and clear

[Dinger]

15. I Post There Already

No need to post the link for me, thank you.

[Catch22Dem]

47. sorry, wasn't sure

:)

[Starbucks Anarchist]

14. As long as it's not anti-Obama, it's probably okay by the mods.

:shrug:

[Junkdrawer]

16. Would "We need you as a backup" and variations...

be "pro-Clinton and not anti-Obama"?

:shrug:

[Dinger]

19. Not Sure I Understand What You're Saying (nt)

[Junkdrawer]

22. Many think Clinton will "suspend" her campaign tomorrow...

in hopes that a sufficiently bad Obama gaffe (for example the rumored "Whitey" tape) will allow her to resurrect her campaign to "save the party".

[mudesi]

17. Pro Hillary as in "she can still win this"?

Because that would not be fine.

[Dinger]

21. Pro-Hillary As In "After The Primary"

Whatever happens. Jeez lynyrd, do you really consider me a "troublemaker"? I'm not exactly an angel, but I try:evilgrin: O8)

[MonkeyFunk]

20. of course!

why wouldn't that be allowed?

[Aloha Spirit]

23. Yes. Hillary will be working her heart out for the nominee.

[Orangepeel]

24. Why not? You can post positive threads about any other elected Democrats

Others will be able to advocate for potential primary challengers and criticize her, though. In fact, as I understand it and remember 2004, people will be able to post messages criticizing Obama and his policies, as long as they don't advocate voting against him.

In practical terms, I expect that both types of threads will degenerate into flamefests and be locked (but because they are flamefests, not because of the topics).

[cbayer]

25. Of course you can.

The bigger question is this (for me). If Obama chooses her as his running mate, will the Clinton hatred be banned from the site?

[Why Syzygy]

31. If she is on the ticket, there will be a WHOLE BUNCH of us looking for a new party.

So, I wouldn't worry about that too much. The Democrats are over for me the day that happens.

[cbayer]

40. Sorry to hear that.

I hope you are happy in your new home.

[sniffa]

27. Not sure, but you and others will be able to post these pity threads

You'll also be free to continue hammering the nails into your palms.

And.. everyone will be free to start doing GE threads.

[hayu_lol]

32. Hmmmm....Too bad Dinger...the local Reichfurhers are still here doing...

business as usual.

Hillary options are reduced(unless she should win the nom)to the following:

Ignore the GE
Write In voting
Skip the presidential part of the ballots
take a long vacation
Hold one's nose and vote Obama.

The nerve of some DU'ers mandating the banning of half the party.

This has not been the old cooperative DU of yesteryear.

For those who suddenly are making nice, it is too late: "Day late and a dollar short."

[sniffa]

35. I know, it's like a misogynistic holocaust

and a gang bang lynching. It's just awful.

for reading that entire post. :patriot:

[ldvisavis]

Day late and dollar short?

Hi hayu,

I am not new to the Dem party, but I am new to this site. Just trying to follow the threads and catch up. What do you mean by "day late and dollar short"?

Thanks for helping me understand.

[Dinger]

45. Well, I Tried

Good to hear from you, friend:)

[Skip Intro]

37. "Pity theads." The poster asks an honest question, as is met, as usual, with arrogance

and insults from an Obama supporter.

[Dinger]

46. : (

I hear ya:-(

[sniffa]

41. Oh goody, another lunatic responded to me

Shine on you crazy diamond. :hi:

[last1standing]

33. Why on earth would anyone stop you?

When Dean lost the nomination in 2004 that didn't stop people from posting positive comments about him. The rule states that you can even post "constructive" criticisms about the nominee.

Just don't try to drag the nominee down with your "concern" and everything will be cool.

[H2O Man]

38. It is almost without question

that her future political career will be closely -- and positively -- connected to Obama's. Hence you will probably get a lot of support here.

[greguganus]

42. Post whatever you want. The mods will sort it out. n/t

[GoldieAZ49]

43. hell there is still an Al Gore thread

so why not?

[ampad]

44. This post was meant for us not the mods

I don't understand why you didn't PM the admin or a mod and ask them instead of starting a thread.

[Dinger]

48. I Thought About That Too, But I Wanted To Know What DUers Thought

That's all.
