This cracked me up
I was checking out the forum over at Democratic Underground when I read this post from a Hilary Clinton supporter. She is planning on voting for Clinton not because she agrees with her positions or because she thinks Clinton represents the what we need in our President. No, she is voting for Clinton because the people at Democratic Underground have pissed her off.
From Democratic Underground user Writer:
You’ve done it. I can’t even begin to annunciate just how furious I am with many of the posters in this forum. I have never seen such hate. I have never seen such embittered enmity carried to the point where sexist insinuations are justified. You disgust me. You disgust me to the point where I absolutely, under NO circumstances, will vote for Barack Obama tomorrow in my state. And I will be sure that my husband does the same and that every caucus goer does as well.
The reasons for voting AGAINST Hillary Clinton are underwhelming, vindictive, and petty. To take pictures of her CRYING - showing HUMAN EMOTION - then using that as a reason for her somehow being UNFIT is despicable.
The reasons to vote FOR Hillary Clinton were made evident to me in the last debate.
You are an abomination to this party, to this era, and to women in this country.
I am now a committed Hillary Clinton supporter.

So not only will she be voting for Clinton out of spite towards the other Democratic Underground members, she making her husband vote for Clinton too. I don’t know how she is going to do this exactly, but she did refer to her state as having a caucus, not an election. It isn’t like he will be able to get into a booth and have some privacy from his wife and vote for who he wants to vote for.
Women telling their husbands who they can vote for. That’s what I call progress.
