Advice on party unity at The Huffington Post? Huh. That's rich.

After Hillary Clinton conceded and endorsed Barack Obama last month, she held a conference call with her delegates and encouraged all of them to support Barack Obama.  All but two have pledged to cast their ballots for Senator Obama in Denver next month.

But for some Obama supporters, that's not enough.

Another masterpiece from the Washington Post:

Since Clinton conceded to rival Obama in the Democratic race on June 7, there has been endless speculation about the intentions of her disappointed female supporters.

Would they refuse to support Obama? Not vote in November's presidential election? Or worse, throw their support to Republican McCain?

What I most take issue with in this article is the phrase "disappointed female supporters." The media are attempting to turn this group into a bunch of emotional, irrational, over-the-hill feminists.

John McCain has a really strange approach to wooing Clinton supporters.

In his recent "townhall" organized to do just that, he pretty much highlighted all of the reasons why his positions are anathema to many women (and Democrats in general).

Here is the HuffPo article with McCain's own words below:

McCain on Roe v. Wade:

"Roe v. Wade, we obviously will have a disagreement. I think it was a bad decision."

McCain on abortion rights:

"[W]e have to change the culture of America. We have to convince people of our view that the rights of the unborn are as important as the rights of the born."

McCain on medically necessary late-term abortions:

"I am unalterably opposed to partial birth abortion."

McCain on the two or more Supreme Court appointments the next president is likely to make:

"I would find people along the lines of Justice Roberts."

"I wouldn't have selected Justice Ginsberg or Justice Breyer."

"I believe that interpretation of the Constitution, and only that, should be the criteria for Supreme Court justices."

McCain on gay rights and "don't ask, don't tell":

"Don't ask, don't tell: I want to rely on the advice and counsel of our military leaders. As president ... I will ask the Joint Chiefs of Staff to go back and review that and other policies to see whether those policies are appropriate, and I do rely on them to a large degree because they're the ones we entrust the leadership of the lives of our young men and women in our military. And I'm sure you may have a disagreement with that policy."

McCain on his own intelligence:

"You don't have to be real smart. I stood fifth from the bottom of my class at the naval academy, which shows in America anything is possible."

McCain's on what makes America great:

"We're the only country in the world that has over time sent our young Americans to shed our most precious asset -- American blood -- in defense of someone else's freedom."

Why would a Clinton supporter want to vote for this guy again?

Watching and listening to the unruly Clinton supporters shout down statements and views that they oppose at the DNC RBC meeting is really making me sick. I'm so glad that Obama instructed his supporters not to act like children...I guess it shows why he is more qualified to be commander in chief.  Its also sad that their commitment to counting every vote is purely situational ethics...they don't care about the rules and procedures necessary to a healthy democracy, much less the underlying principles of democracy.  They are only interested in the advantage/disadvantage to their own candidate (otherwise, why weren't they protesting when the original decision was made, but before the primaries were underway).  And that is no way to address procedural questions and issues of precedent.
