An open letter to Pennsylvania Democrats:
Please.

You can stop this madness on Tuesday the 22nd of April. You can end the politics of the past. You can end the myth that Hillary is ready on day one, or any day, for that matter.

I saw her tell a crowd that she went hunting when she was a little girl.

What she didn't tell anyone about is her voting record on 2nd amendment rights. She just lied about her real stance on guns and gun control.

The republicans are going to contrast this with McCain and the NRA, they will contrast Tuzla and the runway scenes and what she said happened FOUR times with McCain being manhandled by the North Vietnamese.

Her husband went to Colombia and brought back $800,000 that she claims she didn't know whether it went into her election coffers or not. They will show her grabbing her head and asking how many angles dance on the head of a pin.

Does $800,000 in "speaking fees" make anyone bitter??

Ask yourself about Mark Penn in Colombia negotiating free trade without the consent of the voters or the Congress.

We need to band together and vote the Republicans out of our government and take back our Constitution, and our Bill of Rights.

Pennsylvania, you have the power. Please use it wisely.

1. PA citizens: this letter is imploring you to ignore reality
and drink the koo laid. This letter is asking you to join in the distortions and lies and twists to dehumanize Clinton. This letter is asking you to ignore all the good she has done for civil rights and progressive causes, to ignore her intelligence and complex grasp of the issues and problems that face America.

This letter is asking you to get behind the guy with the perrty words that mimics what his handlers tell him what to say and waits for public opinion before he makes a decision.

Ignore this letter. It is filled with ugly lies.

26. If what you say is true, then
you continue to distort and twist and not even bother to read.

3. She's like a pinata with a hollow center & filled with scandals and lies.
This campaign has served to cause Democrats to reflect on the 1990s and to recall the nonstop bullshit that was most definitely GOP wingnut-fueled but we now clearly can see it was Clinton-inspired with their triangulation, slippery answers, flat-out lies, and bullshit.

The GOP would eviscerate her. They have so much material, stock crap in warehouses, with no need to excavate dirt, but I have no doubt there is a portfolio of new delicious dirt on them waiting to see the light of day.

Enough. Seriously, as a party we can't stand the indigestion, the anxiety, and the embarrassment the Clintons have invoked. Not now. Not after the past 7+ years. We now know we can do a hell of a lot better.

Montgomery, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, and Berks are the 5 they normally associate with Philly
