Awesome word. Although I think it can apply to other forums than the candidate's official one. I mean, any reference to Hilaryis44 should be considered a form of nutpicking.

Well, since the essence of the word is that it is an attempt to distort the views of the target by cherrypicking rare and inflammatory comments out of a mass of less offensive writing, I don't think that qualifies.

nah, when you do it to hillaryis44, you're really coontpicking.

Just because the nuts have banded together and formed their own site? Granted, it's easier, but they're still making rare and inflammatory comments against the whole background of political chatter.

If you attributed Hillaryis44 comments to Hillary Clinton, or in some way as a discredit to her, the you would be nutpicking. Otherwise you are just making fun of the sick farks on that forum.

Cherry Picking you mean? (new window)

"Nut" does have that second meaning so let's go with Nutpicker.

This makes me want a freaking cheesecake.

Nutpicking does imply the whole man world.

Don't do it!!!! You just lost 5 pounds from your butt!!!

I hate the word "blogosphere"

SomeoneDumb: Nutpicking does imply the whole man world.

and i'm so sick of it

people who write on forums have the same credibility and anonymity as people who write on bathroom walls. they could be anyone with any number of agendas. or just farktards. either way they should not be deemed worthy of comment other than the forums they appear on.

I thought it was called "Freeping".

Of course, nutpicking will simply encourage opponents to flood the competitors forums with nutjob comments supposedly in favor of the candidates.

It'll be"concern trolling" meets "Ron Paul supporter"

Sorry, pet peeve.

Life certainly can be interesting. I'm in the process of preparing to move myself and my baby daughter halfway across the state so I can attend school this fall to finish my nursing clinicals at a school that has consistently been rated either the first or second in the nation since 1982; I've found out my financial aid included a rather generous amount of grants, and my loan options were capped much lower than they might've been (meaning if I exceed that dollar amount in loans, all financial aid thereafter will come in grants); my baby's mother has decided to move to the same city as we are, hopefully giving me some financial respite for her care and well-being, besides the fact that I want my daughter to know her mother, and be a part of her life.
