Can't they leave it alone. Very well done article and as mothers people should appreciate it.

That's a great article. Too bad it was hijacked by the Obamabots who obviously haven't been loved enough by their own mothers.

Hillary is my surrogate mother. She reminds me so much of my own mother, strong and gentle at the same time. Doing what you have to do to survive. My mother is gone for almost 4 years now, but I know in my heart she would be pleased to see the example that Hillary is setting for everyone.

GREAT JOB
I commented on your work and that I thought there is alot of un-fair assesments of it. I left you a msg that you must have hit on a nerve that got everyone going. So ignore the obamabots they can go around "hoping to change" peoples good ideas into negative feelings, they sure seem to be pro's at that!!

A great personal account of why the writer supporters Hillary.

I did not read the comments - thanks for the heads up - toxicity is not helpful to one's mind!

I think the best Mother's Day gift for Hillary would have been to read this excellent analysis which explains so clearly why she is the ONLY choice for the Democratic Party should the party genuinely wish to defeat the GOP in November:

HILLARY CLINTON MUST BE THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE - DO THE MATH!
http://www.correntewire.com/hillary_...ee_do_the_math

A very compelling case which, once again, established "journalists" disgracefully conceal and/or ignore. The media and the DNC have, together, done a great disservice to Democratic voters (well, those that support Obama) by FAILING to draw attention to the REALITIES of how general elections are won. The media/DNC/Obama have irresponsibly led Obama's supporters down a path that many will find it difficult to turn back from. The realities/facts speak for themselves & Obama's general election chances - even forgetting potential scandals - look dire.

Some great tables too:

SWING STATES
By a majority of more than 2 to 1 in Electoral College strength, the Democratic voters of the Swing States prefer Hillary Clinton. A preference of 99 to 43 is not even close; it is definitive. The voters who are most in a position to know, who actually live in these states and know not just their own opinions but those of their friends and neighbors, have made a resounding decision; they want Hillary Clinton as the Democratic presidential nominee. This overwhelming popularity is why a delegation of elected officials from Swing States have written an open letter to the superdelegates, arguing forcefully that Clinton is not only the clear best choice as the Presidential nominee but also will make the greatest contribution to winning the down-ticket races.

BLUE STATES
Clinton dominates these states, crushing Obama 117 to 66. Clearly, the voters of solidly Blue States agree with voters in the Swing States, overwhelmingly preferring Clinton as the Democratic nominee. While these states should stay in the Democratic column, it only makes sense to run the candidate who has shown the ability to win them – especially when they are the same candidate who so handily wins the Swing State group.

AND THIS CONCLUSION:

The nomination decision is no longer disputable. It cannot be that anyone rational would expect the Democratic Party to nominate a candidate whose support is based on primary results from states that are unlikely to deliver Electoral College votes in November. It was of course important that Democratic voters in Republican-dominated states be given an opportunity to participate and voice their opinion, but victory for the Democrats in the general election is not going to be attained through dependence on a nominating scheme reflecting popularity contests attended by a few thousand people in Idaho or Wyoming. The only matter at hand is fielding a candidate who can achieve an Electoral College majority; Red State resident or Blue, everyone must agree that the candidate with the best chance of winning the general election must be made the nominee.

Even though the issue is clearly settled, it is important that the rest of the primaries be conducted for the sake of party unity. It is also important that Barak Obama be afforded every opportunity to make his case to the superdelegates in early June, even though there is no longer any possibility that he can catch Clinton in the only measure that matters. He must not be harassed into withdrawal. He has made a noble effort, especially for someone with such a limited resume, and should be given the opportunity to chose for himself the time and place of his inevitable concession. That is the decent thing to do.

Concede he must, for the good of the Party; persistent divisiveness would be unbecoming and disloyal. He is a young man, and surely will at some point take up his role as a United States Senator in a meaningful way. Perhaps he could, just to see what it’s like, hold oversight hearings, or write meaningful legislation; maybe he could ease into the job by showing up for votes (currently third highest missed-votes rate at 40.1%, right behind Sen. Tim Johnson who is still recovering from his stroke.) He might also author another autobiographical meditation; a lessons-learned reflection, “The Mendacity of Trope” or a campaign journal – “Me, Michelle and I.” With on-the-job effort and some improvement in his debating skills he may even be able to successfully win over the voters in 2016. His followers this time around should not despair; although such aspirations may now smack of audacity, there is always Hope.

In summary, the voters of the states that the Democratic nominee must win have clearly spoken, and what they have decided must be respected; to do otherwise would be utterly foolish. The superdelegates, as the conscience and repository of wisdom for the Party, must do their duty and ensure that the strongest candidate receives the nomination. Without question, that nominee – and the next President of the United States – must be:

HOW CAN ANY RATIONAL PERSON DISAGREE WITH THIS?

Dear Super Delegates -

Super Tuesday showed us who could take us back to the White House! There is still time to save the Democratic Party... endorse Hillary!

Hillary is the only candidate with the strength, experience and leadership to guide our nation to a better path!

Sincerely,
an enthusiastic Hillary Supporter since 1992 who is NT GING AWAY

In case you did not see it yet, Chelsea made a great video for her mom. You can leave a note to Hillary Clinton. www.hillaryclinton.com

What resonated with me is that my mom always talked about the Golden Rule.

Hillary Clinton is a strong proponent of RESPECT and DIGNITY for all people. This is one of the best qualities.

Two key things that I want to remind people about on this day.

1. Hillary's Healthcare plan is truly a UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE approach. Barack opponent leaves out 15.5Million people. Barack often implies that her plan is expensive, quite the contrary, she has an affordability factor built into the plan. Her plan ensures that there is ample choice available in the many plan options.

2. The Bush/Cheney Energy bill to construct new nuclear facilities and GIVE TAX BREAK MONEY TO OIL COMPANIES!!! Hillary Clinton voted against this bill. Barack Obama and John McCain voted for this Bill.

Hillary walks the walk.. and not just serve up a great talk. The Clintons donated 10% of their income last year. They truly believe in public service and uplifting the middle class and the people below the poverty line.

With all the problems we face, we really need Hillary Clinton as our leader.

As a reminder, to all of you, please check out some the links below for great information.
