Pep Talk/Email/For the few Clinton Supporters left on DU
Advertisements [?]
Good Morning Clinton Supporters,
This is a very serious email. First I want to tell you I received an Obama phone banker yesterday here in Florida. As you can guess, it wasn't the most pleasant exchange between us. I ended the conversation with telling the banker I wasn't going to be held hostage or made to feel guilty for what he said was racism for the past many, many years. That I wasn't responsible for what was done before I was born and that if you took a look at the overwhelming votor block for Obama you would change your tune about racism. Then I left the banker with this message. After he said the Obama Camp will be focusing on swing states like Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Florida. I told him the race wasn't over and that we are taking this campaign to the convention in August and that we(Clinton phone bankers), will be phone banking in all swing states that he listed, all the way through the convention presenting our case why Clinton would make the best viable candidate and why Senator Obama would not. I hope you guys and gals feel the same way as I do? I do think the country is ready for Senator Clinton to help direct our country in a positive direction and that Obama is not.

I do wonder why Florida is having Obama phone bankers when the nominee is not decided yet. All I can come up with is that Obama is taking for granted he is the presumptive nominee and that there will be no way he will be denied this. I suppose you could say ego at it's best. This in itself upsets me to no end. I will not let this happen with out a fight.

That said, we are in it for the long haul to Denver. I say lets take this to the convention. I do believe Senator Kennedy in his wisdom would encourage this as he did the same thing in 1980 against President Carter. Think of it as fulfilling Kennedy's wish

Respectfully, XXXXX XXXXXXXX
Florida for Hillary '08
