Hillary and Obama appeared at a Democratic Party event in North Carolina. Guess whose supporters turned out to be dicks?
Clinton, attempting to show that there will be party unity, said, “If Sen. Obama is the nominee, you better believe I’ll work my heart out for him.”
The crowd erupted into a chant for Obama, leaving Clinton speechless for a few seconds while she waited for them to finish. During her speech, Clinton also mentioned Gov. Mike Easley, who has endorsed her candidacy, and she was momentarily rendered speechless while the crowd booed him.
Hillary is plainly wrong. There will be no unity in the party, given the juvenile divisiveness that has become a trademark of the Obama camp.
Sad to see how little difference there is between so many Democrats and the “iron my shirt” crowd.

Was it reciprocated?
I mean, did Obama make a similar statement, that if Hillary is the nominee, he'll work his heart out to get her elected?
That, to me, is what seals the deal.

If we think of the Obama campaign as a movement...
... with a permament institutional presence, and funding sources, separate from the Democratic Party, then all these seeming paradoxes are readily explained: Obama doesn't ask for my vote because he doesn't want me for part of his movement, Obama doesn't care about destroying the Clintons as assets for the general because he knows his movement will survive after the general, and perhaps prosper more if the Clintons are driven from public life, and so forth.

Do these people
realize what assholes it makes them look like as well as the candidate they choose to support? I wonder why he didn't call them out on this?
That's pathetic.
