The fear card is all Hillary and her supporters have left to play (or ever had)
'Nominate Hillary or we will vote for McCain!!!!'

'Put her on the ticket as VP or we will vote for McCain!!!!'





Roosevelt warned us of this kind of this kind of bullying and fearmongering when he said
'The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.'


So don't allow yourselves to be fooled by it. Don't give in to fear!

1. Actually a lot of the crazies would vote against her if she was VP
The most vocal and seemingly nonsensical supporters are anti-Obama a hell of a lot more than they are pro-Hillary:

2. The nutty old Harriet Christians of the world don't scare me.
The Republicans can have 'em.

And if they want to show up in Denver to disrupt, we'll be there to stop them.

3. Umm, Nebula....
Roosevelt was talking about the attack on Pearl Harbor. Somehow, I don't think your Hillary "example" is quite in the same class.

Roosevelt uttered those famous words in his inaugural address in 1933, during the Great Depression.

The Pearl Harbor attack took place many years later, in 1941.

4. Hillary supporters who vote McCain are HUGE assholes.
Time for them to register as Republicans and get the hell out of the Democratic party.
