We've gotten an avalanche of emails from around the country this week in the wake of news that Sen. Hillary Clinton will be closing out her campaign Saturday.
This one, from Billie Bromer of Augusta, Georgia, is representative of many, capturing the sentiments of Hillary supporters -- angry, aggrieved, mournful -- as they watch the end of a landmark campaign.
What it shows: the considerable challenges ahead for the Obama campaign -- and the Democratic Party -- when it comes to winning these voters over in the next 150 days.
Take a read:
I am one of those 'upset' Hillary supporters who is clinging to Hillary.com during my 'mourning and grieving' process. The media, the pundits, the politicians, and even the two remaining candidates are talking about me and my vote in November. But the story about Hillary supporters is incomplete.
The most simple -- but woefully incorrect -- way to address the topic of the displaced, diehard Hillary women supporters is to lump us all together.
We came to Hillary for different reasons and we are clinging to Hillary for different reasons.
Some of us are pretty strong feminists and we absolutely love the fact that Hillary represents all facets of the very best of women -- smart, tough, soft, protective, devious, tender, assertive compassionate (should I go on?)
Some of us have been more moderate (sensible) Democrats and we absolutely love the fact that she doesn't represent the more liberal/progressive lean the party seems to be taking.
Some of us just do not like Obama and we are NOT racists for not liking him. We see him as arrogant and smug and he just does not 'inspire' us.

Oh yes you are!
Everyone who doesn't vote for the messiah might as well sign up for the klan.
It's funny, we conservatives have known for years how it feels to be called racists, fascists, whateverists, now many Dems are finding that out.
Good.
There are several things I have learned about Democrats over the years. They anger easily. They are irrational and emotional. They also hold grudges for a very long time. Just look at the treatment of Joe Lieberman in the 2006 election. He went from hero to zero over night. They are still mad at him 2 years later for fighting back.
Yeah, Obie, quit the “honey” routine, you operator!
What do you mean “just like the Republicans”, only if you are willing to live under a socialist republic of the United States will you risk “staying home.”
Unfortunately, Obama is less enthusiastic about p***ing on Hillary voters than McCain is about p***ing on conservatives.
“Just look at the treatment of Joe Lieberman in the 2006 election”
Just look at what OBAMA did to LIEBERMAN TODAY!! Heard a report that he man-handled him in the senate today.

Apparently there is a video at the site. Headed to watch it now.
I think Obieis willing to boss anybody around while seeking the ultimate socialist America. You had better take heed.
Hillary will tell you to vote for Obama and you will curtsey and say: “Yes, my queen”.
That doesn’t bode well for Obama’s agenda if he does get elected. The beltway bureaucracies are still packed to the gills with Clinton appointees.
“We see him as arrogant and smug and he just does not ‘inspire’ us.”
Amen to that, sister.
correct me if I’ve missed it, but I don’t remember in all the years I have paid attention, when anybody ever cared about the loser’s supporters in the least! Nobody has ever given it a second’s thought. So to you hitlery supporters, get over it! Suck it up! Be the man hitlery wants you to be.
“We came to Hillary for different reasons and we are clinging to Hillary for different reasons.”
Nahh.. You are lesbians who are looking for Hillary to empower you.
My previous comment was not directed at you...but the Hillary sheep.
Please, allow me:
Bitchy, tempermental, profane, irritating, thunder thighs, kankles, asexual, dependent on her husband, low self esteem, could not make it on her own merit,.....
LOL! That would be REALLY funny if it didn't say EXACTLY what the 'RATS and their comrades in the U.N. think.
Bambi is turning out to be the Totalitarian from Hell.

Scroll halfway down and there is the photo of Obamama at the PUSH convention where she is supposed to have ranted against Whitey.
