Hillary, leadership, and loyalty in Politics 2.0
Last night, Hillary Clinton asked supporters to go to her website to help her decide what to do next. The request and the results (over 2500 comments and counting, here, here, here, and here) pose interesting questions about the evolution of political leadership and loyalty in the web 2.0 world.
The supporters who have responded to Hill-Dog’s call are almost unanimous: they will never vote for Obama, and they want her to “keep fighting.” Some are calling on her to keep campaigning until the convention. But the more popular opinion seems to be that she should run as an independent.

“They have totally skrewed Hillary, lets get her on the ballot ourselves!!!We need each other not the DNC or Obama, I refuse to support him!” -bb in nola
