Those of you who want people to fall in line behind Hillary before the primaries,

[Skidmore]

exactly what do you want us who disagree with her to fall in line for? What is your most compelling argument?

[Totally Committed]

1. Awesome question!

:popcorn:

Can't wait for the replies.

[rucky]

2. Because primaries are so darn expensive! n/t

[Richard Steele]

3. I'd like a good answer to that myself. Kick. nm

[Skidmore]

4. 105 viewers and beyond others who are interested, only the sound of crickets chirping.

Not even a "but the Supreme Court" saw from the Hillary crowd. My comment is that if you are going to vote for the status quo, you will get the status quo. I don't want more of the same. I want change. I don't see Hillary as a candidate of change.

5. Down with Dynasties, country needs to move forward (n/t)

[Skidmore]

6. Still no takers?

The chirping is deafening in here.

[More Than A Feeling]

7. I am not one of them, but I know what they'd say.

Supreme Court.

[Catherine Vincent]

8. No one is asking you to fall in line behind Hillary.

We would just like for the Clinton-hate to stop. Support whomever the hell you want, just don't degrade a fellow candidate in the process.

[Skidmore]

9. Who said anyone "hates" Hillary?

When we disagree with her politics, we hear three things:

1) You're a Republic troll who's scared of a strong woman.
2) You hate Hillary.
3) Supreme Court.

I will tell you I don't hear anything from her that satisfies me on the war, NAFTA policies, or election reform.

10. Those canned replies are frustrating, to say the least.

For someone like me who has yet to pick a candidate they make it difficult to get real answers on issues that I'm uncertain on.

Not to mention the fact that I am a strong woman, I am neutral on Hillary, and I don't think the Supreme Court comes into play in the primaries.

What I have found is that in rl meet ups with other Democrats regarding Hillary I get intelligent conversation and I don't get these canned replies. Perhaps they're an internet phenomenon?

[LittleClarkie]

11. Rather like being told you "hate" the president or "hate" America

as if there are no reasons.

[LWolf]

12. Thank you.

Since when does disagreeing with someone's politics translate into "hate?"

That's bullshit propaganda, from my perspective.

I can reject a candidate based on her politics and still value and respect her as a fellow human being.

[Skidmore]

13. Exactlly. I get so sick of hearing those things constantly from her supporters.

It is the same crap * and his supporters put out against anyone who disagreed with him. "For us or agin us" crap is the last thing we need. I don't support her or agree with her political stance on several important issues. Undertones of being unpatriotic or disloyalty are not the way to win my vote.

[Lone_Star_Dem]

15. Republicans began this asinine argument of using "hate" inappropriately

Democrats are haters. They hate Bush, Christianity, America, the troops, Republicans, God, guns, free speech, Libertarians, children and even apple pie and baseball.

It's juvenile.

It would appear "hate" now invokes Godwin's law whenever it's misused like in this fashion.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

14. Their strongest argument seems to be

"She's not a Republican."

And some days, I'm not even so sure of that, given the friends she keeps.

[MODemocrat]

16. Hillary is not going to win the primary, Oprah chose Obama

With Winfrey's money and clout, and not even having any of the other candidates appear on her show, it's pretty well been determined. In my opinion, this election will be Barrack vs. Thompson; I'm an avid Hillary supporter, however, I wouldn't expect anyone who dislikes her so much to get ready to fall in line for her. Why would you think that?

Besides, if Obama gets the nomination, I'll be right there at the polling place, voting for him; He's
a democrat, and that's the only party my vote is going to go to! My life just goes on. The president is only as successful as the Senate and House allows him or her to be.

:dem:

17. Because:

*Its Hillary's turn. She suffered for 8 years in White House when Bill was president, so now she deserves to be president.

*Its her "destiny".

*She's wanted to be president "all her life" so it would be mean not to support her.

*My hairdresser's brother-in-law met her, and HE says she is really nice.

*Because its time for a woman president and I'm too busy to keep up with issues.

*She appears "majestic".

*She speaks real nice and all the TV guys say she won the debates.
