A message from Hillary Clinton
When the bright lights are off and the speeches are over, who can you count on to listen to you, to stand up and deliver solutions?

Americans need solutions to the challenges they face every single day, and they are depending on us to deliver them. I'm in this race to make a real difference in people's lives, but first I need you to help me win.

Your recent contribution to our campaign came at just the right moment, and I am so grateful.

Now critical primaries are approaching, and I need your help again in this neck-and-neck race for the nomination.

Contribute now to help us prepare for the next round of primaries.

The story of this campaign is your story. It's the story of hundreds of thousands of people who have contributed to this campaign.

It's the story of how grassroots supporters came through at the exact right moment -- when I needed you the most. I can't tell you what you've meant to me.

You've made the difference for me all along, and now I need you again. There's never been a race for the nomination this close, and what you do right now could be the deciding factor in this race.

Contribute today and help me win.

Every day on the campaign trail, I talk with people who know how important the result of this race is for themselves and their families.

I promise you this: I will do everything in my power to wage a strong campaign worthy of you and all those who are rallying to our cause.

Sincerely,


Hillary Rodham Clinton

6. 4
but you did not say instances, you said forms...and there were three of those. But I only posted that to contribute to your humor...something you ostensibly missed. I promise you that I can count fine.

Regardless, you apparently are too wound up with zeal to engage civilly. I am not even a Clinton supporter. Thanks for the chuckle, Lash LaRue.

2. It's Go Time Ya'll.
If we want her to win, we gotta donate.


Every little bit helps.

16. Do we own this piece of crap or leave it to the dogs? Frankly, the beasties
don't scare me ... they're all bark here. I've faced down worse in the streets.

The general has to remain our focus. The self-loathing portion of the Democratic Party is once again doing its best to bring us down - but I won't remain silent.

And I have better things to do.They're just making fools of themselves and look pathetic anyway so why give them attention :shrug: This G.E. too important to be distracted.


I bought some stickers and made another small donation last night after I posted in here.We gotta Step Up and make sure Our Woman has what it takes to fight the good fight.Any amount at all is big and does help.



Happy Saturday to all my fellow Hillary Supporters :hi:

13. And Obama needed his dream house. So?

What trash ... nothing positive, and you can't defend your attack from itself. C'mon ... this is what you're going to throw against the GOP, that buys ink by the barrel and 'nets by the access points?

7. "I can't tell you what you've meant to me."
Oh, come on. Tell them! Tell your supporters what they've meant to you. A nation holds its breath.

9. Why bother?
Words are meaningless anyways. It's backroom deals that make this country run!

10. Hillary says help ME win.
Obama's messages talk about a movement, about WE, about US.

Just sayin'

12. Do you know how silly that sounds? Like ... you're almost the candidate too!
Give me a break. The presidency of the United States is a bitch of a job - and I've worked to make HRC the best candidate possible against the machine that brought us *. If you've got something positive to contribute ... welcome. But in an age of American Idol, your US is just another slogan. Some of us having been working hard for ages and laugh that each generation has to learn anew that real change is like ... hard.

Just sayin' ... 'cause words have got too cheap in the 'net age.

19. So? Aren't they young and idealistic? Aren't they under the thrall
of command? I started this before Iraq ... but if you need to be swayed by current events, let me not attempt to deter you. But you ain't having an effect on us. HRC will remain my senator however this goes.
