Message to everyone here: It's time for unity.
FL and MI have been settled. Barack Obama's lead won't be overtaken, and he will be our nominee. Hillary Clinton ran a terrific campaign- she fought hard for the nomination and she needs to be commended. She's a true fighter and someone that will have a very strong impact in American politics for decades to come. There's nothing to be ashamed about if you are a supporter of her.

Now, it's time to unite and defeat McCain in November. Let's get to work.

GoDems!!!! Gobama!!! :bounce:

2. Bullsh**. Tonight, I'm pissed. I'm tired of taking it in the teeth from the HIllbots.
Today was disgusting, as she encouraged her cultist supporters to be as ugly as they were.

Screw 'em. We're going to beat McSame anyway.

6. We will be united. They are angry and dissapointed, but if they are true Dems
they'll come home eventually.

3. All I'll say to the Hillary supporters is that I hope you come to your senses
and realize what the choice will be in this election.

Four more years of Bush policies with McCain, or Obama--a guy you KNOW holds at least 85%-90% of the same positions as Clinton.

Yeah, I've been a dick to people here, I know--so I'm not going to get up on my high horse and claim that I've been above it all, because I haven't.

I guess all I'm asking is help us. Give us the ability to finally kick the Republicans out of office and make things the way we want them to be.

There. It's out there. I'm not going to grovel at your feet for your votes but I'm done spitting on you. I've decided it's not worth it anymore because otherwise I'm just part of the damn problem.

5. Kick for unity -- although I'm thinking it might be a bit too early for this take hold in GD-P.
Good on you for trying, though! :hug:

Peace,

12. By not reinstating Fl and MI delegates with full votes, especially MI!!! You heard it.
This will go down as the year that Obama stole the Dem. nominaton. I have dibs on the title and book - ok?

13. So if Obama "stole" the nomination, what would Hillary be doing if she got it?
Obama got the most pledged delegates. Won the most states. And he is sure to get the most total delegates. By following the rules, which cannot be said for MI and FL who broke the rules.

Obama also got the most in popular vote, unless you count the absurd MI primary which did not even have Obama on the ballot, again because Obama followed the rules.

I think it time for party unity. Your post is inflamatory and not in the spirit of unity. Not does it value compromise. Sad....a my way or the highway approach from the losing side. Just sad.

19. The post is meant to be inflamatory. Gore v Bush and the SCOTUS gave it to Bush.
Hillary is going to take her argument to the Credential's Committee and that committee is stacked with Obama supporters. I'm drawing a similarity between both events. Denver, all the way to Denver!

10. I am all for unity. We should pull together and move forward.
Eventually HRC supporters will come to their senses. If not, they should vote for Bob Barr.

15. OK, it is 12:12...I repent. Please Hillary supporters, forgive me but....
please stop dragging your party down the tubes, too.

Show some class and forgiveness to the Obama camp, too. It is a two way street.

This is hard, but I'm trying. Can't you?

18. If we learned anything from the Hillary campaign it has to be
determination. Let's channel her relentlessness and get it done in November. We now have a candidate the whole world is thrilled with. Getting him to the White House will change that world.
