Is it me?

Or are the Hillary haters out in force today.

Maybe it's the new Rasmussen numbers and they are just trying to justify Obama's declining numbers, but they are posting all over the web.

1. Desperation-the hatred jumps above already high baseline levels when they sense their candidate's...

...chances are really slipping. Gotta take control of the media atmosphere, online and off. Hope and change and 'new politics', ya know.

2. They are seeing their candidate go down to defeat....

and it's very upsetting for them.

Too bad they are so obnoxious. I would like to be sympathetic.

[thetaoofterri]

4. I would like to feel sympathetic, too,

but I can't.

7. That pretty much sums up the way I feel, too. I don't want to rub salt in their wounds,

but I'm glad it was the Rev. Wright spectacle that is the source of Obama's problems and not something Hillary has done. They can't hang this one on her.

10. Oh, leave it to them to try to. Hang this one, too, on her. nt

3. yes, they most definitely are... RW talking point memos in hand.

[question everything]

5. Yes, they are. Obama number are sinking

she had a great appearance on O'Reilly and they claim that she bashed him, which she did not, of course. And they don't even realize their duplicity, when they condemn her for appearing on Fox, while their golden boy did the same on Sunday.

6. out in force

and back on the offense.

I recommend messing with them as much as possible.

12. Thanks for the advice, Crisco. I don't think I want to take another step into the slime.

Just me -- at this time in my life -- and all the names they want to call us older women.

8. It's not just the Rasmussen numbers. Gallup and Fox polls now show

Hillary with a lead. The RCP averages show that this race is really tightening up again.

9. Today is Friday ...

by Monday night, on the eve of the primaries in North Carolina and Indiana, the spin speed of negative messages coming from Obama followers will be measured in Yottahertz.

A yottahertz is a unit of frequency equal to a septillion hertz or a thousand zettahertz :)

11. It "hertz" me to say this, but...

I think we are going down to a "double defeat."

Clinton will lose the nomination,

Then Obama will lose the election.

But goodness knows, I could be wrong.

13. the misogynists are really out in force today (Sunday)

it's sickening, the hate filled attack posts today. I have never seen this sort of hatred, even toward Bush and his pack of thieves.

It starts to bear resemblance to the witch hunts, burning them at the stake, the misogynistic treatment toward older women in general through hundreds of years of our collective history. Heck, might as well be back in the Dark Ages when the Catholic Church was trying to wrest control from female to male. Sad, very sad.


If you want to read a good take on why and how this is happening read the many comments in this article "Do They Hate Clinton More Than They Hate The Dem Party?" (we have friends there!):

I was going to post this on the big board but am so tired of all the hate rants, am going out to do some gardening. It's good therapy!

14. they're skeered

[NashVegas]

15. It's Crazy Right Now

With the primaries tomorrow.

[Texas Hill Country]

16. they make me HATE obama instead of just prefering Clinton...

[susankh4]

17. I hear ya!

I really wish it wasn't that way, too.

I try to like him. I really do.
