Hillary Thanks the Contributors
Thought people, the 6 or so Hillary supporters on DU, might want to see the nice note we got today.


I've omitted the link mentioned.


Personally, when I met Hillary and she thanked me all I could think to say was "Thank you for taking up the fight".

1. My concern is that she
will continue to "thank" her corporate donors well into 2013 before she pulls the troops out.

2. I think she is running to Win
what happens after she's prez. is anyones guess but I can guarantee she won't give the repugs any ammo before next November.

In plain English. We don't know her exact stance on some issues because she doesn't want them to know either.

3. Well winning is everything
Forget her stance on the issues, she is the chosen one.

16. Yes. It is about winning
No we can't forget about principles but the first principle is to put a Democrat in the WH.

Here again is the text of a letter I had published in the Manchester Union Leader (the Misleader).

It is about winning.

I am proud to admit that I am a lifelong member of the Democratic Party, and it has never been more critical to return a Democrat to the presidency.

I believe in the Democratic principles of fairness and equal opportunity. I believe in government by and for the governed. I fully believe in your right to disagree with me, and I will defend that right.

Seven years ago, the presidency was stolen by people who do not believe as I do. They did not steal it from Al Gore. They stole it from us, the American people. They do not defend the Constitution. In fact, they mock the built-in safeguards of separation of church and state and separation of powers. They invent enemies in order to start wars so they can fill their bank accounts with more billions. They are crooked, cheating, lying schemers entirely focused on winning at all costs, retaining power at our cost. They govern by fear and campaign by stirring up more fears.

We all know that the Republicans' 2008 campaign will feature more e-mail jokes than last time, more disrespectful cartoon videos of our leaders, and more totally false attack ads than ever. We can be sure that they won't actually engage in open discussions of the issues that effect us and our world.

I will support the Democratic candidate, but I do not believe that most of them can handle the coming general election campaign. This time around is too important to take chances. This time we can't be wishy-washy. We have to fight and we have to win. We need a candidate with the experience and thick skin to take on the Republican machine. We need someone who won't quiver when the mud starts flying.

We need Hillary Clinton leading our campaign to return the White House to its rightful owners, the people of the United States of America.

9. That's what I was thinking.
And they've given so much more than the average American, so they should get more in return, right?

What's the difference between that and what we have now? :shrug:

We must cut the ties between politics and corporations. It's not good for America, it's just good for corporate America, and there is a difference.

12. Don did the Rockies/SD last night
I turned on the game and thought that voice is familiar. He may also be doing some of the TBS playoffs.

Poor Jerry has to go into his cave and watch on his HD.

Go Sox
