Have you heard about the bully, Alpha girls trying to intimidate other woman into voting for Clinton? Not only have I heard of it, I have been on the receiving end. And it wasn't pretty. But enough vitriol.
KateTex, my son is a senior in high school. He's waiting to hear from colleges. He is a pretty cool kid. He knows that probably some disappointments will come his way on April 1. But he's been able to avoid the "gotta get into Harvard" hysteria that is prevalent where we live and knows he'll get in somewhere and his life will turn out just fine. Maybe you should take a page out of his book. Calm down, take a deep breath, gather yourself. I know that you really, really, really want Hillary to be the next President and I understand the disappointment you must feel (if Obama does not get the nomination or win the general election I know I will be incredibly disappointed). But this anti-Obama hysteria, as if he is the Devil incarnate, has gone too far. Only a united Democratic party can beat the Republicans. Isn't that the common ground upon which we all stand? Hysterical anti-Hillary-ism and anti-Obama-ism certainly will do nothing to unite the party.
