Dear _____,

There's a lot being said about the primary process right now. I wanted to reach out to you and let you know how things look from where I stand.

First, I think we'll have a nominee before the convention. It's still early, and there are plenty of voters who still haven't weighed in.

I also think that we're fortunate to have two fantastic candidates that people are excited about -- we've consistently had record turnout across the country, and whoever wins will have the support of a healthy Party that's ready to fight. Hillary and Barack are meeting voters in places that don't typically get to see our candidates so closely, and that's good for both of them come November.

They're both campaigning hard, and it's great to see such excitement for two great candidates -- I'm excited about them, too.

But while our process continues to play out, we can't afford to sit around and wait. We must start right now -- we can't let John McCain get a head start.

1. Looking ahead.... I like that.

2. glad he weighed in at least, the GOP is giddy at the prospect of

Dem wrangling, tension, infighting for super delegates...

[NastyRiffraff]

4. And we're giddy at the GOP infighting

among the insiders and the voters. Hating McCain, terrified of Huckabee. It does my heart good to see it. Every time I get exasperated at all the fighting here, I think of the GOP problems with their candidates and smile.

8. yes, like that...but somehow they always 'fall into lockstep'

3. And guess what..Dean's right. He's one

of the hardest working Dems out there and I mean from the bottom up And hilary and her tight little group, the dlc's, hate 'im.
