Obama-Hillary split at Daily Kos

The Daily Kos is having some trouble, it seems. The New York Times is reporting on a divide between the pro-Clinton and pro-Obama forces on the Daily Kos. It seems that the Obama supporters have essentially ran out the Clinton supporters by attacking the Clintonian political methods. Now that some Democrats are facing criticism from their own side, they feel they have no idea what to do except call a “strike” on the Daily Kos.

It’s evident that the Clintons have been ruthless since Obama took the lead. Their strategies have been cold hearted, they have taken risks (to win), and yet few of their supporters realize this. I will say Barack Obama has definitely held the high ground in the Democrat race so far. His problems as a candidate are negligible when compared to what the Clintons bring to the table.

The Daily Kos strike is a show of idiocy by the Hillary supporters, though. While I am sure most of the Obama supporters there have little education on their favorite candidate’s policies (or why his policies would be bad for America), they are likely rabid in their support of Obama–almost to the point of how Ron Paul’s supporters are (though I would argue Ron Paul’s supporters are better educated about their candidate). The Hillary supporters, at first sign of being attacked, refuse to debate and instead, they run. The other funny thing about it is they act like a “strike” is significant. From reading the Times article, it sounds like the founder of Kos could care less that they’re gone now.

  1. I find all of this complaining about the Clintons’ cold-hearted and nasty campaign tactics ironic and amusing. Where were these same people’s complaints in defense of ‘trailer trash’? Or on behalf of travel office personnel in the White House? Or on behalf of the 900 people whose raw data files belonging to the FBI ended up in the White House? Or in support for people who thought a top executive having illicit relations with a very junior employee was on the nasty side?

    The Clinton tactics haven’t changed in decades. I’d just like to welcome to the Obama to the ‘Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy’ side of the aisle.
