I just got this from Hillary:

Dear Julie,

Over the course of this campaign, I have seen the promise of America in your courage and character, your energy and ingenuity, and your compassion and faith.

Your spirit has inspired me every day in this race. While I traveled this country talking about how I wanted to help you -- time and again, you reached out to help me. To grab my hand or grip my arm, to look me in my eyes and tell me, don’t quit, keep fighting, stay in this race for us. There were days when I had strength enough for the both of us -- and on the days I didn't, I leaned on you.

This has always been your campaign, and tonight, there's no one I want to hear from more than you. I hope you're as proud as I am of what we've done and that you'll take a moment to share your thoughts with me now at my website.

I want to congratulate Senator Obama and his supporters on the extraordinary race that they have run. Senator Obama has inspired so many Americans to care about politics and empowered so many more to get involved, and our party and our democracy are stronger and more vibrant as a result.

Whatever path I travel next, I promise I will keep faith with you and everyone I have met across this good and great country. There is no possible way to thank you enough for everything you have done throughout this primary season, and you will always be in my heart.

Sincerely,
Hillary Rodham Clinton

I agree Hillary's dirt is all out there.
So you rather vote for a known crook rather than a suspected one?
Guess, what, I am not going to argue with you.

You probably gave her more, I didn't max out. And I haven't donated in a while, so maybe she's lost hope in me!

I give her a little big when she wins and more when she loses.

Whew...thank goodness, Hillary does love me too! I just got the same email. I'm just on the "always-votes-democratic" state delay!

I agree, but I wonder if I agree because I am bitter.

I am sure that the Republicans have some dirt on him.
I bet you are right. Even if they don't, who needs dirt when you can just say plain and simple the guy lacks any practical experience, especially with international matters. And they'd be right to say that. It should be an interesting 5 months...

I won't vote for McCain.

I am just sort of sad that I have to vote for Obama.

I really wanted this to be an election where I didn't have to vote for the lesser of the two evils.

There's a chance that you may have the opportunity to vote for Clinton - for VP. She's evidently told some of her people that she'd accept the second spot on the ticket if Obama offered it. In the name of party unity that's the best thing he could do.

Personal opinion: He won't do it. I don't think his wife would appreciate it and the last thing a President needs is a VP and a First Lady who might get involved in a cat fight.

Why not? You already voted for the greater of two. :P
