Although I am absolutely committed to Barack Obama, I don't really believe that the majority of those who support Hillary are desperate. However, I do think they completely underestimate the strength of Barack Obama. I have noticed that many of her supporters generalize about him, calling him a liar, a weak candidate, a racist, and so forth. They obviously do not know him, listen to him infrequently and are being fed a constant image of an unelectable candidate. Personally, I think it's kind of sad, because they merely reflect what the Clinton campaign and the radical right are promulgating. One thing which is an indication of this is their constant characterization of us as "Obamamites," and other such denegrating terms. And it is rather childish to hear them talk about us "drinking the kool-aid," recalling, of course, Jonestown. Really silly. Rather than deal with issues, they resort to name-calling and insults both of Barack Obama and of us, who support him. This is unfortunate, but it's really a small number of people. Regardless of what they say, I believe the actual elections in the next few primaries will demonstrate to them the strength of Barack Obama. And I don't think we should rub it in their faces. They sincerely support Hillary, and are very dedicated to her. And they are our fellow Democrats.
