Do we need to pay attention to the fringe?

I needed to understand this 11% of Hillary supporters who claim they will now only vote for McCain. So I delved into the likes of Hillaryis44 and No Quarter. And found that there is real hate out there, but we all already knew that.
Unfortunately from these blogs I still couldn't tell how real this hate was. Is this group of people really worth paying any attention to? I don't think so.
Obama Campaign Listens to Supporters
Thu Apr 10, 2008 at 06:28:54 PM PDT
After 24 hours of up and downs in my attempt to become a Delegate representing Obama for CD33 in California, the Obama campaign has once again NOT failed me.
I had registered to become a delegate with the California Democratic party a few months ago. As soon as I saw my name posted on a list on the party's site over a month ago I started my campaign.
I reached out to friends and family. I had fliers made and canvased my neighborhood. I set-up a lunch meet and greet at my house the day of the Caucus (this Sunday) where my guest where invited to carpool with me and others to the caucus.
Then yesterday I was served a blow. I was told that the campaigns were purging the lists and I was cut from contention.
Florida/Michigan Obama challenge

There is a big problem. We've disenfranchised the voters from Florida and Michigan. We desperately need them for the fight in November. The states are being told by the DNC that they need to pay for this do-over themselves. I'm not sure that goes too far in repairing the relationships with these voters. So what to do?
Hillary's New Flyer (with Poll)

***disclaimer: This is my first posted diary and I did this in less than 10 min. Sorry bout the lack of substance and quality.
So I see that Hillary is upset over some fliers that have been sent out. But she just got these fliers and was just made aware of these fliers when supporters handed them to her at a recent rally. Right? Because the other night at the debate she was proud to be in this race with Barack. She wasn't so mad at him that she would want to "shame" him. Right?
