As Eric Hoffer noted, "true believers", of which Daily Kos has its significant share, only become more adamant, more committed, and more vocal when their cause is undermined.
On this site, every day, Clinton supporters are subjected to a barrage of attacks... that the Clinton campaign is racist, didn't win Nevada, used dirty tricks, that they cheated, that they suppressed votes. And on and on.
Daily, there is diary after diary pushing Obama and Edwards, almost always in manic tones. The bizarre accusations and conspiracy theories give me some perspective on how many "regular folks" probably view anti-GOP conspiracy theories from us generally... you guys are just cookoo!
But the fact of the matter is that Hillary Clinton will almost certainly win the nomination.
And so then the question becomes...
What happens to you, oh diehard Obama/Edwards supporter? You have aimed your fire so ceaselessly and unrelentingly at the Clinton campaign... will you be able to transform yourself into a supporter of Clinton? After you have accused them of racism, fraud, lying, voter suppression, and the like? Can you truly do that?
No, I don't think you can.
So, will we say goodbye to kid oakland, thereisnospoon, and the many other overly aggressive Obama/Edwards supporters?
In any case, this level of ceaseless attacks against other Democrats is so disheartening. Yes, yes, "they did it first", or whatever. But face facts: Clinton will probably win. Start to deal with that. Start to let that horrible, horrible notion enter your skull. Start to accept that she will be far, far, far better than our current President, and far, far, far better than any GOP nominee.
