Obama supporters... Rise above it

Tue Apr 01, 2008 at 02:56:21 AM PDT

As promised yesterday in my diary Dear Hillary Supporters, please join us" here is a diary asking Obama supporters to take a cue from our candidate and ease off.

First, granted, Hillary has done some pretty bad and undemocratic things...

  1.  Dirty tricks in Texas
  1.  Law Suits in Nevada
  1.  Trying (still) to seat FL and MI which would disenfranchise those that didn't vote since they thought it wouldn't count.
  1.  Seemingly praising McCain by suggesting that he would be better than Obama
  1.  Playing the victim card over and over and over

etc., etc., etc.

HOWEVER!!!  It is time to heal the rifts in the party.

Comments like this don't help...

Hillary needs to be booted from the party (0 / 0)
She doesn't believe in democracy and D/democratic values.

And the name calling is also over the top.

Filthy racist. (2+ / 0-)

She needs to go down in a big way.

Hillary Clinton doesn't deserve to serve in the senate.

I hope Peter Paul takes her for every single penny she ever earned and ever will earn. She deserves it.

Look, I'm not happy about scorched earth either.  But, take a page out of our candidates playbook and let it slide off our backs.

So please, call a truce.  Stop harassing HRC and particularly stop attacking her supporters.  

So - here is a plea, stop posting Anti-Hillary diaries (she is damaging herself enough anyway), and posting negative thoughts about her in comments.

Remember folks, it's time to Rise Above It, and try to heal the rifts in the Democratic party.
