HRC people: Look, I respect your dedication, but...
Isn't it time to accept reality?

You've fought hard for your candidate. But Indiana and North Carolina sent a clear message and the swing against your candidate in superdelegates reinforce it.

You've fought the battle. You've stayed loyal, probably more loyal than your candidate deserved, but still, loyal is loyal and I can respect it.

Isn't it time to begin to think about unity...isn't it time to begin to work towards accepting the inevitable?

Your candidate fought hard...her efforts have ensured that in the next few years there will be a woman president, and probably one who did not have to make fatal compromises with conservatism and militarism.

Please, think about beginning to let it go and about joining us for victory in the fall. We have far more in common than not.

You can show the country something few political forces have shown it recently...how to put the greater good first.

This is posted in a respectful spirit. I hope you'll accept it as such.

1. Some of them are. Were you expecting any group of Democrats to move en masse?
Come on, if you're bothered by passionate-yet-irrelevant nonproductive bickering, why even bother being a Democrat?
