election 2008 from the eyes of an ebony mom

Hillary Clinton fought hard to be the Democratic nominee but she finally accepted the fact that she had lost. Bill Clinton had an even harder time coming to grip with this fact, but he did, and yesterday he said he would do whatever he was asked to do for Obama. There are still some Hardcore Hillary supporters who refuse to accept the facts and move on. “In a sign that senior Democratic officials remain deeply concerned that post-primary bitterness could imperil Barack Obama’s chances, two top Democratic officials have emailed a sharply-worded letter to major donors and other leading Democrats confessing “fatigue and irritation” at those withholding full support from Obama and demanding that they get behind him “without conditions or demands.” No other nominee has been subjected to this kind of treatment by members of his own party and the party is right in their efforts to reign in the troops. In there email they make it abundantly clear as to their expectations. Donald Fowler, a former Hillary supporter and a former DNC Chairman, said “I supported Hillary Clinton and am proud and pleased that I did, but she lost, Barack Obama won. It’s over.”  This should have been said a long time ago, but better late than never.  With less than 4 months until November all Democrats need to be singing out of the same hymn book, and there is no time left for sour notes.
