I told him I'd most likely be writing in Hillary no matter what...we agreed the press is not fair to her...then he echoed the story about Wrightgate: This. Is Not. Going. To Go Away.<BR/><BR/>If Obama gets the nod he will win Illinois and maybe California. The end.<BR/><BR/>My own letter to the DNC in response to a fundraising email yesterday:<BR/><BR/><I>Um, are you going to count the votes in Florida and Michigan? Until you do, I'm going to have a lot of trouble making a financial contribution to the Party (I'll still contribute directly to candidates.) I don't think there's any excuse for monkeying with people's RIGHT to vote (not their privilege)...this is particularly true of Florida, where Republicans set the date of the primary by packaging the move in with a set of initiatives to ensure ballot integrity. <BR/><BR/>How unbelievably cynical are you, by allowing your staff to go along with a 100% penalty solution given this set of circumstances? Is your memory so short that you don't remember what happened in 2000? I do, because I was there to help count ballots and saw the distress and anger on the part of people whose ballots were messed with by Republicans. And yet you're allowing the Republicans to disenfranchise them AGAIN. And you're going on national television to encourage them!<BR/><BR/>Honestly, I'm hopping mad that you were on TV today, Chairman Dean, appearing to ensure that votes in Florida and Michigan are counted only after the superdelegates make public announcements as to who they will support. What part of "millions of people will write in Hillary Clinton whether or not she is the nominee, if it appears she is railroaded out of this election" do you not understand?<BR/><BR/>For the record, I don't think this problem will go away unless and until you count these votes. If anything, you're just ensuring the "enfranchise Florida and Michigan" picket lines in Denver are going to be louder and longer. I'll be on one of them, unless you fix this, ASAP.<BR/><BR/>Eleanor A<BR/>Nashville, TN</I>Eleanor Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14860132421897043540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119943.post-9990984365625099812008-04-07T07:48:00.000-07:002008-04-07T07:48:00.000-07:00If Obama is the nominee, a goodly number of Dems i...<I>If Obama is the nominee, a goodly number of Dems in November will either be sitting at home or voting for Clinton as a write-in, vote for Nader or leave the Prez blank.</I><BR/><BR/>Earl, don't forget that a lot of GOOD LOYAL DEMOCRATS will actually vote for McCain over Obama... because they feel that to do otherwise will be DISLOYAL to America.

I knew Howie [not in the biblical sense] during the years he was our gov. Because he was such a breath of fresh air after years of Repug Snelling, he got more passes than scrutiny. <BR/><BR/>I think he had a good idea to work the South instead of just ignoring those states but now he is, overall, a tool of the big turds who run the DNC and has lost whatever credibilty he ever had.<BR/><BR/>Now that he really has something to scream about he is silent.gendergappershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06607028861861443195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119943.post-50722777334333360362008-04-07T00:11:00.000-07:002008-04-07T00:11:00.000-07:00The DNC and the "elite" apparently don't care what...The DNC and the "elite" apparently don't care what will happen in the general.

I'm one of Hillary's base. <BR/><BR/>This is what I wrote to the DNC today...<BR/><BR/>"Dear Democrats,<BR/><BR/>I am a female Pennsylvania Democrat, and I am angry.<BR/><BR/>Florida and Michigan have to either be re-done or accounted for as they currently stand. Hillary should be awarded the delegates she earned.<BR/><BR/>Obama will have NO legitimacy whatsoever, in my view, until all the votes are counted. How can he argue that he won by the will of the people?<BR/><BR/>If the Democratic party won't count all the votes, then it isn't very democratic, is it?<BR/><BR/>My candidate will be Hillary, whether she is nominated or not. <BR/><BR/> BTW, you are all so afraid of losing the black vote if Obama doesn't get the nod. You need to be worried about the women's vote if Hillary doesn't get the nod. We are the backbone of this party. I personally think the party has taken women for granted for too long.<BR/><BR/>Women will not vote in droves unless she is treated fairly."sashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07765322372663936389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119943.post-3448788677545029502008-04-06T15:46:00.000-07:002008-04-06T15:46:00.000-07:00Anglachel: You are so clear, so logical, so exactl...Anglachel: You are so clear, so logical, so exactly correct probably no one will believe you but us typical hillraisers.jangleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16562164166132990166noreply@blogger.com
