Someone Finally Gets It

At last, a journalist has finally tapped into the level of anger that Hillary's supporters are feeling and the denial by the Democrats, DNC, Obama Campaign and the MSM who are declaring that we will come home. They are definitely in denial and does not seem to have captured the true sentiment of her supporters who are watching, listening and paying close attention to everything that's been said about Hillary and Bill Clinton. They seem to believe that this is all about sour grapes and eventually we will "get over it." Maybe if the Campaign did not include insults, sexism, Media involvement in the selection, and the DNC's apparent "selection" of Obama despite Wright, Ayers, Dohrn, Rezko, Pflager, and evidence that Obama is a weak candidate. Maybe if we did not feel that Hillary was thrown overboard by the Democrats and the DNC who had given her their word that they would support her or would remain "neutral."

Bonnie Erbe's article: "Obama and the Democrats Owe Hillary Clinton and Her Supporters a Formal Apology for the Campaign's Sexism" captures the intensity of the anger and disappointment we, the Clinton supporters have felt throughout this process. We don't want to be told what we should do, we don't want to be ridiculed about our reluctance to vote for Obama. We are not sheeps to be led to slaughter. We have a mind of our own and we don't believe Obama is trustworthy. We don't care for the threats about the Supreme Court, War, and the Economy. And we definitely don't take kindly to being called racists because we won't vote for Obama. I did not vote for Bush in 2004 not because I dislike white people; I voted for Kerry because I thought he would make a better President. There is also that little factor called trust. I just don't trust Obama.

John McCain is my Senator in the U.S. Congress, he has helped me on several occasions with Immigration and Student Loans issues...and in a timely and effective manner. I have been pleased with the outcome of my interactions with his office. I was a loyal Democrat until recently (now and Independent) and I don't know if I'll vote for him but I know this: I like him, I respect him, he has been Independent on many issues, He's from Arizona and HE IS NOT BUSH.
