Being a soon-to-be Hillary supporter, it feels kinda funny voting for option 2. Tongue

What bugs me is that some of her supporters act like she's entitled to the Presidency.

Interesting.  It does annoy me how her supporters think she's entitled to the Presidency.  The thing that really bugs me is how counterintuitive it is for most of her supporters to be in her camp.  Working-class voters shouldn't be supporting centrist DLC types, yet somehow the majority of white working-class Dems love her.  Her appeal to that demographic is one that I'll never understand.  I sympathize with their struggles at least, even though they support a candidate who doesn't.  So, I guess I prefer them to Hillary herself.

As I like the former and the latter has many undesirable individuals, obviously I choose the latter. Even though I voted for her in the primary in 2008, I've always thought that many top campaign officials and advisors should have been nowhere near her (think of people like Mark Penn). If she runs in 2016, she'll need to be rid of people like that.

Her supporters overhype her. I'm very uneasy about her and I really would rather not vote for her.

I don't know any Hillary supporters outside of this forum. All the lefties I know IRL backed Obama in 08. That said you guys are ok, so I like Hillary less.

Extremely annoying. (Hillary Clinton supporters)

It's almost exactly the same hype as Obama '08.

Her supporters. Being Hillary Clinton isn't a choice. Supporting her loudly and publicly years before the actual primaries begin, long before any member of the general public knows who her opponents will be, what they will stand for, or what the most important issues will be, is very much so.

Obama's vague, personality-based campaign annoyed me in 2008 and this already seems like a re-hash of that.

Well, it kind of is. If she chose not to marry Bill, she would be Hillary Rodham. Wink

I must say that if Hillary Clinton is the Democratic nominee in 2016, I will have a very hard time voting for her. That said, the sense of entitlement that plagued her campaign and her supporters in 2008 seems to be rearing itself again. That, I really don't like. I honestly don't even see her appeal to those on the left like myself.

And some of her opponents, too.  Remember Father Pfleger?

Who hates Hillary supporters more, Hillary supporters or Hillary opponents? Hillary supporters. Why? 'Cause we hate ourselves too. Everything Hillary opponents hate about Hillary supporters, Hillary supporters REALLY hate about ourselves. Hell, there's a civil war going on in Hillary's camp right now. It's between Hillary's supporters ("those of us who would answer "Hillary Clinton" when polled among the current 2016 choices") and Hillary's SupportersTM. And the Hillary SupportersTM have got to go!

I frickin' hate Hillary SupportersTM. They're Hillary's worst enemy.

Hillary's supporters like Hillary, but we respect her enough to realize she hasn't declared for anything yet. She understandably probably wants some time to rest up and think things over. She's barely said anything on domestic politics in years, and it's possible her views on some things have changed. And the election is three friggin' years away. We eagerly await her next book, but realize that overexposure is not a good thing for her right now.

Hillary SupportersTM don't seem to realize this. They don't think Hillary can make her own decision and feel that she needs to see that we are all "Ready for Hillary". Some of them are well intention-ed, and may even have worked very closely with the SoS. But they feel the need to start campaigning right away.

Hillary supporters appreciate that Hillary is a hard worker who never takes anything for granted and doesn't feel entitled to anything that she hasn't earned (unlike some). We realize arguments like "she's a Queen", "she deserves it", and "she's a woman" are sh**t argument that actually hurt her, and are very un-Hillary. Hillary SupportersTM, on the other hand, make exactly those arguments, or promote articles that do, even those written by Republican operatives. A Hillary supporter who is attracted to Hillary precisely because she's the overqualified type hates the Hillary SupporterTM who thinks the party should anoint her now simply because of who she is.

Hillary supporters think Hillary has a great, smart and sharp mind and are looking forward to hearing her message in a campaign if she runs. Hillary SupporterTM don't care about what she has to say, they support her just because she's HILLARY. A Hillary SupporterTM will say something like, "She's going to be the nominee." sh**t, sister, you don't know who's going to be the nominee in three years and neither do I.

So in conclusion, my message to all Hillary SupportersTM is Shut the F___ Up.
-Hillary supporter
