The New York Times’ Sarah Wheaton is reporting that pro-Hillary Clinton bloggers are boycotting the Daily Kos.

On Friday, it got to be too much for Alegre, a diarist on the flagship liberal blog DailyKos, who frequently writes in support of Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.

“I’ve put up with the abuse and anger because I’ve always believed in what our online community has tried to accomplish in this world,” Alegre wrote Friday evening. “No more.”

Objecting to the tone of attacks against Mrs. Clinton and her supporters on the blog, the diarist called for a “writers strike.”

“This is a strike - a walkout over unfair writing conditions at DailyKos. It does not mean that if conditions get better I won’t ‘work’’ at DailyKos again,” Alegre wrote, promising to come back only “if we ever get to the point where we’re engaging each other in discussion rather than facing off in shouting matches.”

      Good for you Sarah.

      I stopped reading Koz and the Huffington Post for the same reason.

      I am a Clinton supporter who is now so turned off by the “Obama People” that I no longer consider myself a Democrat.

      My first vote was for McGovern. My next will be for Nader.

      The daily kos and anybody who reads this TRASH is a bunch of whinners. Wake up, stop complaining and grow up. You people need an old fashioned ass kicking and will get it (again) in November.
