Partaaay Unity!!!

Okay by now we all now that Barack Obama has won the Democratic nomination, so now is the time for the Democrats to come together and put their candidate in the White House, right? Wrong, so wrong. At first I thought it was a huge exaggeration and it still might be as, a few does not represent the many, but today I spent some time on some Hillary Clinton message boards reading what the posters had to say about just about all things Hillary. I must say that even though she has suspended her campaign for the presidency and has endorsed Sen. Obama, there are still some Clinton supporters out there with illusionary thoughts. They range from people who think that Hillary will emerge from the summer convention the nominee to people who will vote for Se. john McCain, before they ever vote for Obama, to one who put forth a long thought out presentation of the possibility that Obama may just be the biblical Anit-Christ. Whoa, listen I don’t claim to be the smartest or the most politically savvy person alive, but some of these people are complete nuts. Why do would a Democrat, a die-hard supporter of Hillary Clinton , vote for a republican, John McCain who has a complete opposite view for the future of this country, than ”you” the Democrat. I just don’t get that.

A Democrat voting for John McCain because Hillary Clinton lost her bid for party nomination is like a Blackman being turned down by the NAACP for membership and then applying to the Ku Klux Klan. You see it just doesn’t make much sense does it. So what’s with all this talk about party unity, when it’s clear that some Clinton supporters don’t want to unite their party? Now not wanting to vote for the man because he’s experienced is legitimate, but then throw your support for a man in john McCain who the Democrats have already vilified, as representing the third term of President George W. Bush, the most villainous figure of modern America, if you are a full pledge Democrat and follow the Democratic talking points, if disgusting, and I’m sure because of Obama’s skin tone, some might even see it as racist. I’m sure that would be the motive for some of these Clintonites, I would also add sexist as well. Yes sexist. Well just think about, okay. Some of these Clinton supporters are furious over what they say is sexism against Hillary during her campaign run, and if you listened to the responses from her supporters after Obama clinched the nomination, many of the them were disappointed that there wouldn’t be a Female president, even claiming her bid was lost because of the sexist nature of this country. So someone could see her supporters not voting for Obama as a way to seek revenge, or as a way to present their own biases and prejudices. How else would you explain people voting for someone who they feel will continue to take the country in the wrong direction, and is the wrong choice for the country. My advice to disgruntled Clinton a supporter is to either stay home and don’t vote. Vote for another candidate or vote for Obama, but please don’t vote for John McCain. Why do I say this? Not because I think McCain would be bad for the country or he’s the devil himself, but because I don’t want to hear Democrats, Clinton Democrats bitching over the next 5 year about how President McCain is destroying this country, when you had the chance to “stop” him and you opted to vote for him instead.

Until next time... Remember when your candidate endorses another candidate, it ends for them, but it never ends for you!!!
