I was remiss in mentioning that your post brought me to tears. They don't get it here, they don't get the type of passion that she inspires in her supporters. I saw it while campaigning.

Despite the constant media drumming for her to get out of the race, despite the left wingers in the party leadership murmuring the same, despite the LW blogs spewing as much hate as the Freepers; she won most primaries from March through June, and won all of them (except for IN) by 10% or more.

In Reading, PA alone we had volunteers from CA, MI, AR, CO, FL, KS, TX, NJ and of course NY. The three people from FL had campaigned in several states and brought with them crates of oranges to hand out while canvassing, they said that they had been a hit in OH and had gotten plenty of votes thanks to those oranges. We had one superdelegate from KS who Bill had called in person and asked for her help. There was a doctor from Dallas who put his practice on hold and came to help out because he believed so much in her healthcare plan. One night two hispanic men came in and asked for "their people". As it turns out, they were Mexican-American professionals and business people who had chartered a plane from TX. There were 40 of them and spread out through several cities in PA. We had bus loads who came from NY and plenty of people like me who came from NJ every weekend for weeks.

We had teachers, high school kids, union guys, nurses, professionals, working class folks who came between shifts, office workers who came after 5 and retired people. They were white, black, hispanic, asian, indian and any combination of the above.

Does anyone think that people who were so inspired by a candidate will be satisfied by a condescending greek chorus of "get over it"???

Hell, no!!!
