Even the most lib-ass libbed up example I can remember from my own political experiences of people legitimately telling voting democrats (in the primary nonetheless- committed, ideological democrats) that voting for Barrack HUSSEIN Obama to be the candidate over Her Majesty HRC was essentially the same as voting for whoever would be the republican candidate (McCain). Because no one would vote for Muslim Black man!

Now obviously I'm not gonna sit here and type out why Obama sucked shit, but the point is even back in 2008 I remember very clearly talking with people, the most omegalibs you can imagine, who were livid, sucking down cigarettes in anger at the prospect of people voting for Obama over Hillary in the primary and their claimed reasoning being, like I said, basically allowing Bush term 3.

They've always run these games, it doesn't work anymore, and they're just flailing like crazy at this point. Now if the fucking DNC could just... implode already... that would be nice

The deals Obama made behind the scenes to get the support he had versus early on in his campaign became readily apparent during his terms unfortunately, but yeah I was just getting into electoral politics at this time and I remember it too
