He was disenfranchised (5.00 / 5) (#6)

That was how I felt. In '06 it was all about taking Washington back and fighting for our issues. As bloggers we were on the modern progressive side that would deal honestly with a bad administration and do what is right for this country. Together, as true intelligent Democrats we would fight for our candidates with the future of communications. We held our breaths together on election day. We relished in the sweet feeling of victory. In 08 a new brand of KoolAid was introduced. A Democratic brand. And if you did not drink it you were ostracized and disenfranchised from the popular blogger sites. Your family didn't have any use for you because you were not with 'them'. But we managed to find new friends who felt the same and managed to keep our integrity along the way. Hopefully those former family member are not going to need us again someday. One stabbing in the back for me was enough thank you very much.

Where did you read that? (none / 0) (#15)

Angry I am not. I only state how I felt being disenfranchised from the now Pro Obama sites. They turned nasty and I am not a nasty person. I can still pick and choose diaries but they have become few and far between the ones that I can read. When I said family, I meant the blog community. My own family are all pro Hillary. We have to wait and see what will happen. I was a Edwards supporter who had to make a choice 2. I admit that some of the ugly negativity about a candidate on top blogs helped me make a decision to choose Hillary. Then I was able to see additional weaknesses in BHO. I didn't like what I saw. He is a nice man but I do not think he would make a good President. Yet. I don't hate him as some bloggers absolutely hate Hillary. I don't even dislike him. Ron Paul? Are U being funny? Was that snark?
