Response to Original message |
| 124. Please explain to me how this works. |
|
My assumption would be that Clinton supporters would rationally decide whether OBAMA is someone they would like to vote for.
What does me "reaching out" to them have to do with anything? Do they need more information? I'll try and provide it.
I thought voting was about doing what was best for the country, not about putting band aids on boo-boos.
