A Sincere Apology to Clinton Supporters

Hello All!

I would like to offer a sincere apology to all Clinton supporters for my negative posts regarding Hillary Clinton in the last several weeks.  As I sat thinking about my negative tone in my last several posts, I realized that my behavior has been wildly inappropriate.

I had become bitter by the hateful posts I have seen about my candidate, Barack Obama, and it affected my clear thinking.  Being told repeatedly that I am being manipulated by a snake-charmer and victim to some sort of kool-aid drinking tragedy got me in a fit.

From here on out, I will not post negatively about Hillary Clinton.  I will continue to post positively about my preferred candidate, Barack Obama.  I will also continue to point out any time I think Hillary Clinton or her campaign are not being genuine or honest in their spin.  But I will not resort to name calling.  I will also not respond inappropriately to the numerous posts from anti-Obama bloggers who continue to bring up their perceived scandals from the Obama campaign.  It is clear that any blogger who posts a discussion of scandals that doesn't include a laundry list of Clinton's own dilemmas is not a blogger who can be reasoned with.  Therefore, this is the last time I will mention scandal.

In a few short weeks this nomination process is going to be over, and the Democratic party needs to come together to defeat John McCain.  There was a time when McCain might have been viewed as a moderate.  That time has passed.  He is pandering to the extremists in his party to try and win theWhite House.  We simply cannot afford another 4 years of Bush policies.

I believe with all my heart that Barack Obama should be and will be the next Democratic nominee for President and the next POTUS.  But no matter who the nominee is, we have to fight to make sure a Democrat is in the White House in 2008.  A divided party will not only sacrifice the White House but potentially the Democratic contol of Congress, as well.

We must come together for the good of our party, and for the good of our nation.

Sincerely,

Dave Morgan

ANOTHER Superdelegate for Obama! 4/24/08

04/23/2008

Oklahama Gov. Brad Henry, who said earlier he would not endorse a Democratic presidential candidate until this summer's national convention, announced this morning he is supporting Barack Obama.


 

"Senator Obama is uniquely positioned to unite our nation and move beyond the divisiveness and partisan skirmishes that too often characterize politics as usual in Washington,” said Henry, who is in the middle of his second term.

"Senator Obama and his positive message reflect the best of America,” Henry said.

The Democratic governor, in a statement released by Obama's campaign, pledged to Obama his support as a superdelegate at the convention.

Obama said: "I am proud to have Governor Henry's support today as we continue to build our grassroots movement for change. ...We're fortunate to have Governor Henry's backing, and I look forward to working with him in the months ahead to bring about real change not just for Oklahomans, but all Americans.”


‘Inspirational leader'

Henry is the third superdelegate, or party insider, from Oklahoma to back Obama. U.S. Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton of New York has the support of one Oklahoma superdelegate. The state's remaining six superdelegates are uncommitted to any candidate.


Clinton won 55 percent of the votes in Oklahoma's Feb. 5 presidential primary, compared with 31 percent of the votes cast for Obama. As a result, Clinton was awarded 24 delegates and Obama was granted 14 delegates from Oklahoma at the national convention, Aug. 25-28 in Denver.

"He (Obama) is a strong, committed and inspirational leader, ideally suited to bring together Democrats, independents and Republicans,” Henry said.

Henry said in January he wasn't vying to be the running mate for any of the Democratic presidential contenders, but he said he would consider the possibility if asked.
