I have reached the absolute end.
I was open to the idea of Mrs. Clinton having all the room in the world to make a graceful exit from the stage but after her comments today, I am finished.
I always understood the idea behind Super Delegates was to have a method in place meant to keep the Democratic Party from damaging itself, from self destructing. From where I stand, this protracted and ugly fight is damaging us and continues to do so.
It is now clear Hillary Clinton has no legitimate path to the Democratic nomination and moreover, it appears that from here on out, it is her intention to make sure the presumed nominee is so beat up as to make the uniting of the party as difficult and unlikely as possible.
So tonight I wrote a letter to my Senators, Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell. They are both Hillary Clinton supporters and Super Delegates, and I made my feelings known regarding this continuing debacle.
Dear Senator _______,
I am so offended by Senator Clinton today. I have been willing to allow this race to go on no matter how destructive I think it has been to our party, because up to now these sort of observations have been made by Hillarys surrogates.
Clinton cited an Associated Press article "that found how Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again, and how whites in both states who had not completed college were supporting me."
But no more. This is outrageous. If she were a Republican or for that matter even a television host we would be angry, offended and calling for her to step down or be fired. But because its "The Clintons" we, and I am going out a a limb here and saying YOU, as a Super Delegate are allowing this sort of corrosive politics to continue unabated to our detriment.
Stop this now. This primary campaign season is over. As a super Delegate you are supposed to keep the party from destroying itself and I expect you to honor that role.
Sincerely,
It is time to ask those Supers who are still supporting this disaster to stop it. It is time to begin the healing of the wounds of this primary season. It is now time to cast a clear set of collective eyes toward the McSame Campaign and begin to call him on the free ride he is getting because of this endless Clinton campaign.
I am certain if the tables were turned the hue and cry for Mr. Obama to withdraw would be deafening, and no less should be accorded Mrs. Clinton despite her long standing association with the party.
I encourage all to write a letter to your Democratic Representatives, Govenors and Senators who are either uncommitted or committed to the Clinton campaign and kindly but firmly ask them to end this divisive and destructive campaign now.
For our Country and its future.
