compelling piece on "Destroying Barack Obama"
The right is after him.
The left is after him.
Is it some big surprise that the right didn't like Hillary Clinton and wrote nasty things about her?
Is it some big surprise that the right will try to destroy Barack Obama?
What is news is how the LEFT is enabling this meme, with an assist from some blogs and the likes of ex-Hillary supporters who are supposed brilliant like Wes Clark.
We need to focus on moving forward to elect a Democratic President.
That's what I think.
subject. We are also already writing those defending Obama.
...to this day on the extremist sites where they still dwell after having done the same on MyDD and other popular blogs.
TexasDarlin, Alegre, and so many others here, with no integrity whatsoever, went out of their way to promote every right-wing smear and slander against Barack.
I'd like to see some examples, because frankly, I didn't see any during the primary. At least none that came from fellow Democrats.
How bad do you want him to win? Bad enough to agree his surrogates and supporters should apologize and make amends for making half the Democratic Party the embarrassment of the country and the world?
You must have slept through the primary.
...making half the Democratic Party the embarrassment of the country and the world?
Wow again. Where does stuff like that even come from?
True, but with the emphasis being on the phrase "some of them."
This is the reason diaries like this make me uncomfortable. It's not that there's anything wrong with it per se, but it attempts to play into a narrative that was common during the primary--that Hillary Clinton had it much tougher than Obama. The truth is she got what was about par for the course for anyone running for President. Did she suffer from a lot of unfair nasty attacks? Yes she did. So did Obama. So did Edwards. So did John Kerry. So did Al Gore. So did Bill Clinton, etc. etc.
What I don't understand is why we are still talking about how poor Hillary Clinton was treated so unfairly while running for President when it seems abundantly clear to me that she herself is over it and is focusing on what the rest of us should be focusing on--getting Barack Obama elected.
