Its seems that daily I see diaries where Obama supporters are taking a part Hillary Clinton, her campaign and her husband, then her supporters come on and defend them and and the fight is on
More after the fold...
But in retrospect it seems the only times I see Clinton bash sessions or diaries that are belittling of her it is due to some headline that has been made by yet another Clinton supporter who just can't seem to get it through their head that she lost and no one is to blame for that except her, and her campaign, that she allowed to run rampant.
Yes, Obama supporters will defend his win, the way he won and the things he said and did during the primary.
IF the Clinton supporters would let it be, the Obama supporters would gladly leave it alone but they won't and therein lies the problem.
We are placed in a very hard position when we see headlines like Howard Wolfson made today. Other recent ones include:
The Hill
http://thehill.com/...
Plans for Clinton convention rallies intensify.
or
Roll Call
http://www.newsday.com/...
Clinton may seek a Roll Call at Convention based on conversation at what was suppose to be a rally for women.
or yet another
Politico

Geraldine Ferraro, a Clinton supporter who in 1984 became the first woman on a major party presidential ticket, said Obama should be "gracious" enough to offer Clinton the vice presidency, considering how narrow the race was.
Marcia Pappas, who heads the New York state chapter of the National Organization for Women, believes that Clinton supporters "would be outraged to know she was not given that right of first refusal."
The list goes on and on and on. As supporters of Obama and his historic campaign we are not allowed to brag, be happy or correct lies and inuendo's that are out in cyberland. If we do? We are not being gracious winners or worse we are being mean to the Clinton supporters yet I NEVER see headlines where an Obama supporter has gone out and bashed Hillary...at least not since the Primary ended. They may be headlined due to defending Obama against the misstatements of fact that the Clinton supporters like to throw around but never is there anything unprovoked.
The problem appears to be with the Clinton supporters theirselves yet we get blamed on top of not being able to crow about OUR victory and for many of us? It is OUR victory too! We worked hard and deserved our happy dance!
Sooo a message to the unhappy Clinton supporters, other than get over it she lost, is that if you guys will back off on the reasons she lost, how she should have won or how she can still win then things just might settle down. If not? It's going to be a long couple of months and the end result won't change because Obama? He's going to WIN! Don't you guys want to be a part of helping this country? Don't you want to see the war end? Universal health care? Come on and let's all let it go because all this fighting isn't going to change a thing other than ensure that if Hillary did run again, some day in the future? Many people will not vote for her based on the bad feelings from days like this!
