An Observation.....

patgundIn 2004 I was (and still am), a stong Wes Clark supporter.
During that time period, I got completely pissed off by John Edwards supporters who would bash ANYONE who dared speak in support of anyone other than Edwards. To the point that I had no interest at all in John Edwards or his message, because his supporters had turned me off completely
Some of Sen. Clinton's supporters seem to be willing to do the same. As if Sen. Clinton didn't bring enough negatives on her own to the table. I'm not impressed with the dirty "win at all costs, screw you all if you don't support me" behaviour her campaign is showing of late.
It's ironic that the GOP front runner is a Senator that is seen as too liberal by conservatives. And one of the Democratic front runners is seen as too conservative for liberals.
And as for moderates? I can only speak for myself. But I cannot see any reason at all to vote for Sen Clinton. As much as I wish Sen. McCain was still the McCain I voted for in 2000, he's still better than Sen. Clinton.
That being said, if she does end up with the Democratic nomination, I'm more likely to pencil in "None of the Above is acceptable" this November.
