I came across this YouTube video today while surfing around and, while it's a bit dated (from just after the WV primaries), it makes a very good point to everyone who has been an Obama supporter from the get-go: don't be shmucks to Clinton supporters.
The guy who made the video, Jay (otherwise known as Ill Doctrine), makes some very finely-worded points that should be kept under consideration for everyone who voted for Obama during the primaries. Yes, I know that the whole primary season was painfully long and in many ways annoying as hell, but if we want Obama to win in November then acting like douchebags to other people who could potentially vote for Obama along with you is a Bad Idea.
I know the message is coming a bit late, but I couldn't have worded it better than Ill Doctrine did in this video and I wanted to share it.
Looks like one of McCain's top advisers has started the ball rolling on the whole "if you don't vote Republican you're helping the turriss" baloney:

I find it ridiculous and deplorable that McCain didn't drop this guy like a bad habit. He's really turned his back on a lot of ideals that I respected about him in the last year, this being a new one.
Way to go, Johnnie: nice way to keep the campaign clean.
Is it better to leave a computer running all the time, or to shut it down? A friend has a mac and claims that macs run better, or that it is better for mac to be on for long durations then to shut it down when it is not in use.
I think this is bunk...don't most electronics wear out faster when left on?
