Don't waste your time on Hootie. It's a PUMA. Some speculate that it is the reincarnation of another PUMA, named Shawn, that used to hang around but was kicked out of Salon. Hootie is one of those PUMAs who would rather sell its soul (and its country) to the devil for the pleasure of saying "I told you so" rather than keep fighting to save the country and reform the party it claims it used to be a member of but now hates.
I have asked a question of Hootie a number of times that I think goes directly to the question of why the candidate it supported (Hilary) would have been problematic in the GE. It never answers. I can only surmise that it can't. Hootie was NEVER about the country, or the party, or even Hilary's policies - Hootie was always just about Hilary. Kind of selfish and childish, don't you think?
