Clinton Letter to Superdelegates
realclearpolitics.com ^ | 0528/2008 | Hillary Clinton

Posted on 05/28/2008 12:44:21 PM PDT by WesA

(Note: the following is the text of a letter sent by Hillary Clinton yesterday to all Democratic super delegates.)

Dear ___________,

The stakes in this election are so high: with two wars abroad, our economy in crisis here at home, and so many families struggling across America, the need for new leadership has never been greater.

At this point, we do not yet have a nominee - and when the last votes are cast on June 3, neither Senator Obama nor I will have secured the nomination. It will be up to automatic delegates like you to help choose our party's nominee, and I would like to tell you why I believe I am the stronger candidate against Senator McCain and would be the best President and Commander in Chief.

In the Democratic Party some votes count more than others!

These delegates get to vote twice, one on election day and again in super-secret back-room deal-makings at their convention.

What a partay!

It’s not over until the court rules on their law suit in FL. It would be real fun if the Supremes ended up determining if the FL votes count. Have the whole thing haning beyond the convention..

the need for new leadership has never been greater. ................ Boy ain’t that the truth, I wish there was a “leader” out there I could feel good voting for. Where have all the “leaders” gone. I guess Hillary doesn’t see herself as being part of the old leadership?

There is something to be said for a political party wanting some veto over primaries.

If we had their system, maybe we could have had a real conservative over the phony McCain.

Q. If it’s all so automatic for BHO, then why don’t the automatic delegates (superdelegates) all line up, speak with one voice, and tell HRC, BHO, the Dem party and the whole country it’s over?

A. It’s not so automatic. It’s not over.

So, Hillary, what is the history of unexplained deaths and serious injuries to Democratic Party delegats and their family members? She's not suggesting anything... just saying anything could happen.

Definitely unbelievable, but read closely and it’s obvious she is only being selfless. This for the little 90 year old women who want to live long enough to see a woman in the WH, for working families, the downtrodden, the children, etc. She’s willing to fall on the sword for Obama and her country. What a woman!

This letter quite frankly, makes me sick. I can’t imagine any viable, respectable candidate ever ever doing such a thing. Well, take that back, I can imagine a John Kerry or Al Gore putting a letter like this out, but I could never imagine Reagan, Truman, IKE, JFK, Nixon, in short any one with some understanding of the office to send out a letter like this.

When you say she’s being “self-less” I think you’re being sarcastic. This is ALL about her and nothing about what is best for the country.

I’m betting that she continues on past June 3. I’m betting that she files some injunction against the democratic party regarding the FL and MICH delegation.

I don’t know who is the more dangerous, her or Obama.

Count how many times she uses the words “I” and “Me” in that letter.
