Memo to Barack Obama: Stop Whining Already and Start Fighting for Votes!
Memo to Barack Obama: Stop Whining Already and Start Fighting for Votes!
From: A Disaffected Democratic Voter
Dear Senator Obama:
Why do your campaign and its surrogates keep telling Hillary Clinton that she needs to drop out of the race? What are you afraid of – competing against a “girl”? Come on — don’t be a wimp!
A majority of Democrats want this race to go on. Millions of people in ten additional states want an opportunity to vote. I’ve heard you’re not much for hard work, but is it really too much to ask someone who wants to be President of the United States to spend two more months meeting the very Americans you want to represent?
I’m getting the feeling that you want to be coronated rather than nominated. Well, no one said this race was going to be a cakewalk. And besides, you have only yourself to blame for not being able to close the deal with voters up till now.
Look, you purposely ran for President — as one Pennsylvania paper put it – with the thinnest resume of any Presidential candidate in modern times. A year ago probably fewer than 50% of Democrats even knew your name. Even now Democratic voters seem almost split between you and your opponent. Let’s face it — you still have a lot of work to do.
