Ok, if I can keep it simple Mr. Garin, Terry needs to get local grassroot support with the phone net, and other outlets to give her what she needs to finish. 2 The D.N.C. and the pundit,s are out to due her in. If you look at those Irish pundit they must all be working for Kennedy because they have racked her up. Time and Time again they hit her and you guys aren,t hitting back, Start hitting back! 3. If she doesn,t get a fair hearing and those Supers who a lot of them have been male and if they come out against her they should know that it will come back on them from those supporter who will make it known about there jumping the gun come there local cycle.because the smart move would be to claim a independent role and take on both McCain and Obama and if you do the real math you will see SHE WINS!

Here’s what I sent to Geoff Garin:

Let me first just say this: God, how I wish you had replaced Mark Penn after Iowa. I was already worried about the strategy and direction of her campaign even then. As Harold Ickes said not too long ago, “she is SO much better than this campaign.” Not a truer thought spoken.

That said, I thought you may be interested in a petition that a friend/co-worker emailed to me:

You can view this petition at: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/tell-a-friend/220211

I not only signed it (#815), but also found solace in reading the thoughts and feelings of so many others who share similar views about the “compare and contrast” between HRC and BO. In essence, obviously, there is no comparison.

And, yes, I have contributed several times to this campaign, including the 9/14/07 event at Magic Johnson’s home, and the 4/3/08 event at Wilshire Theater in Beverly Hills. (Not to mention a couple times online!)

From the bottom of my heart, I wish YOU and the campaign the best of luck.

I meant to reply to your comment on Friday, and just got around to it today (because it was STILL that important to me). I sent this No Quarter article (with Geoff Garin’s email), and, specifically, YOUR comment, to some of my friends who are also loyal HRC supporters. As I said to them, “I found this comment particularly intelligent and articulate, and the sentiments expressed in his last paragraph nearly brought a tear to my eye.”

So thank you for supporting this very qualified and deserving candidate as you have, and thank you for sharing your thoughts with us here. Your words were very inspiring

My idea was that CNN should honor Hillary’s agreement to appear in the next debate later this month. Of course the crybaby Obama has backed out. That’s his problem. CNN should still honor Senator Clinton’s commitment: they could change it to a TOWN HALL where Hillary answers questions from NC citizens.

If they did this, watch Obama scurry to get back in, the same way he horned in on Hillary’s Colbert appearance, after refusing to accept his own appearance….no doubt scared that Colbert would pull a HOPE BONG out on him.

Tell CNN that they should still honor the slot Hillary committed to!

I was offended by Obama throwing rap signs to the audience in SC. He might thing this old fogey didn’t catch what he was doing but I did! His “dirt of my shoulder” gesture his “finger to the law” gesture, flipping the bird to Hillary, his smirk when the audience “got it” and started cheering was so disgusting, so UN presidential I was sick. He is not Presidential material. This type of behavior is immature and divisive. I am sure many American’s did not see or did not understand what he was doing but he was giving a covert shout out to his “homeys” which was extremely juvenile. Of course, the MSM is not reporting it or explaining what he was doing. Throwing signs?? I am still shocked he would stoop that low with his Chicago smackdown. He is disgusting. I am sure all the kids think it is very “cool” and “hip” but I don’t, I think it is ageist and sexist. His playing 99 problems after NH was equally disgusting and equally unreported! These things alone disqualify him for the Presidency. His inexperience and associating with racists and criminals and terrorists notwithstanding.

Hillary can remind people about the ways Bill Clinton helped expand the Strategic Petorleum Reserve to fuel the boom.

what I sent

“We want to know what you think” - here it is:

If Obama wants to play Chicago smac-down - call his bluff.

My reasons for favoring Hillary Clinton are generally in terms of greater experience and a more credible real track record of advocating my interest.

This is an important point that many don’t seem to get. Many actually come right out and say that Obama’s NON-experience in getting us where we are today, is somehow actually a good thing. They are wrong of course, and they need convincing.

Obama says he likes to play Chicago smac-down; in this case by bluffing that his relatively minimal experience is heavier than it really is, and that his words about his future intentions mean even more, even though his words have little or no backup.

Suggestion: To convince people of the meaning that experience and track record have, it may help to have more focus on the real examples with results, especially in areas where Obama is hard pressed to offer anything similar, other than just stated intention. In simple terms, your message could use greater focus on - ‘This is what I did, this is how you benefited, and as president I will keep doing these things in your best interest, only more so; if Sen. Obama can offer real examples that compare, we’re still waiting to hear about them.’

I know this is similar to the ‘hit the ground running’ message. But more examples that Obama can’t match, offered with a challenge to match them, and also which have high value to voters, may convince at least the undecided. If the examples show taking some risk for the benefit of voters, so much the better.

I’m a volunteer in Charlotte, NC. Everyday, I commit myself to do something for Hillary, like: “Honk for Hillary” in almost every known intersection in Charlotte, everyday in different places led by Kenneth and myself. We want Hillary visible in every corner of Charlotte at least (maybe other group can do this, too).It’s fun!
And this one is crazy, we go out after midnight and plant Hillary signs (we’re like Hillary Vampires!)
Of course, we do phone banking, too.
I go out with Hillary button on my lapel to meet Hillary supporters and the undecided. Hopefully I can make a difference to those who can’t make up their mind and make them a supporter of Hillary at the end.
Last but not the least, I try to respond to any news that so negative about Hillary. One was published in Charlotte Observer, though. Every night,I blogged.
These are the samples that you can do,too. As Carmina said ” We’re Here to Win”. And I add “at any cost.”
