How I've missed her! She's been away for far too long! I have a memo for Obama's camp: there's an old saying that goes "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar". I have heard multiple statements about 'crazy Hillary Clinton supporters acting stupid and not voting for Obama' from Obama supporters.
I can only speak for myself, but I know that calling me 'stupid' or 'crazy' does NOT make me want to vote for your guy, Obama. I am not blind to John McCain - I see him for what he is; his main appeal at the moment is merely that his camp is not directly insulting me personally, which, perhaps, is counting for something.
That, and, also, again, speaking for myself - I am kind of stubborn. And I think, looking at the Hillary Clinton camp, I might not be ALONE in possessing that quality. So biting back in the form of a vote for John McCain might be an option, if the Obama camp can't stop taunting us Clinton supporters, sixth grade style.
Just food for thought for all my Obama-loving friends, and anyone else who reads - seeing that I'm not alone; there are 18 million of me. :)
Sidenote: Yes, I wrote this post before Hill's speech. However, everything I said still stands as accurate.

For the record--I am not calling you or any of Hillary's other supporters stupid. I fully agree that you are stubborn though! And unfortunately also a little bitter (sorry...) at the moment. I can understand that feeling, but I get upset when I hear people say that they will vote for McCain or not even vote at all just because Hillary is not an option. We're all going to have to live with the outcome of this election and I get worried when I see so many emotions play into such a big decision.
Respectfully yours,
Jessica :)
Jess made a good point. Even I'M voting. I'm adding myself to the ballot.
Put on your Hillary Supporter For Obama button and be done with it.
Oooh, you guys are egging me on. Never underestimate the power of bitter angry people in large quantities.
If I recall, you did text me and say that Michelle Obama's speech made you like her a little more and that Barack's speech wasn't "too bad." We may still convert you to an Obamite yet!
