Hillary Urges Donors To Contribute To Obama's Efforts In Ohio, Vows Extensive Campaigning In The State

Hillary just held a private conference call with Ohio Governor Ted Strickland and dozens of donors to her campaign and to Ohio Dems, urging them to plow funds into the coffers of the Ohio state party so it can help execute the ground game on Barack Obama's behalf, a Hillary aide confirms to me.

"There isn't any doubt that Ohio once again will be the pivotal state in this election and I know that it's extremely close in the state," Hillary told the donors, according to excerpts of the call sent our way by her office.

Hillary also promised extensive future visits to the state on Obama's behalf. "I will be back campaigning up and down the state to make the case that the failed leadership of the last eight years should not be rewarded with another four," she told the donors.

Hillary also predicted that the economic meltdown would persuade Ohioans to back the Democrat. "I think that as we go through this very serious economic crisis, more and more Ohioans are going to say: 'Wait a minute we need a new vision. We need new leadership. We need a new hand on the tiller,'" Hillary said.

2. She sure is the best looser in the world.

I have never, ever seen any Primary looser jump in and sweat day and night for their former opponent. I am impressed in Hillary Clinton. She is devoted to the Democratic party and an Obama win.

Thank You Hillary Clinton.......now don't forget us in Pa.

4. Sweat is Right.

She said essentially the same things at a rally Sunday in Lexington. Actually, it was in a huge, hot tent at the Kentucky Horse Park. There were 1,000 of us -- all sweating, including Hillary. The rally was in support of Bruce Lunsford, who's running against Mitch McConnell, but she got in some good licks for Obama. That was her second rally of the day. She is indeed working hard, and I'm proud of her
