"So, not troll, as an honest-to-goodness Dem, can you answer my question regarding why Clinton doesn't have to win the votes of Obama supporters in November to be elected?"
I never said that she doesn't have to win their votes. She should try to. But if they don't want to back her there's nothing she can do about it. Such is life. Such is politics. She should still win without them.
And my bashing of Obama supporters has always been in response to their bashing. And the profanity is tit-for-tat.
Not defend Clinton and her policies? Pfft. The Clintons should have been defended by 100% of the true Democrats. But the rats abandoned ship as soon as they saw it was politically expendient. The Clinton's progressive policies have been on display for decades -- and they took immense personal damage from the Republicans for it. They took it for the Democratic Party. You cannot deny that. Therefore I support them. You go ahead and be just another rat. Go ahead and vote Obama. He deserves you.
