Or at least did, until the past couple of weeks when things began to unravel.
I notice the absolute assholism--there is no other word to describe it--of Clinton supporters on message boards and blogs. Not all of them are assholes, but there are way more of them than for other candidates. If you dare state the obvious about her candidacy, that it is merely a way for her old man to get back in legally, you get labeled a sexist. If you dare point out some of her recent troubles, you are a sexist and anti-Hillary. It's all about shutting out any debate, and never mind her obvious vulnerabilities as a general election candidate. And by God, nobody is allowed to criticize her.
It's the head-up-ass mentality of the Clinton supporters who won't face electoral reality.
Almost all Hillary supporters I have met in real life aren't that way; it appears the anonymity of message boards and blogs bring out the asshole in people.
In somewhat related news, Eliot Spitzer, like Hillary, was for giving driver's licenses to illegals before he was against it. The losing proposition has been shelved:
Mr. Spitzer’s plan touched off a national debate over whether issuing licenses to illegal immigrants would make the state more secure or improperly extend a privilege to them that should be reserved for those here legally.
Opposition to the proposal sent his poll numbers plunging and completely stalled his broader agenda.
Just in time for Thursday's Democratic debate in Vegas. Now Hillary will be off the hook.
