In a speech likely to be referred to for generations, last night Hillary Clinton unapologeticaly supported Barack Obama as Democratic nominee for president, and president of America.  A former candidate for nomination herself, Hillary's committment to the nominee and the party is unparalleled in Democratic convention annals.  

Democrats have been rewarded with Hillary's behavior.  We are better positioned to be unified today than we have been during this entire cycle.  It's now time to reward Hillary.  Please contribute to Hillary's campaign to help pay down debt.

In the last 24 hours, the Hillary Clinton campaign has raised one million dollars for each of the percentage points that she beat Barack Obama in Pennsylvania.

Momentum shift?

Duh...I think that is a fair assessment.  Money doesn't fall out of trees, it is willfully and faithfully given by those that believe in her.

I would say that this is a strong message to America that Hillary is not only a valid candidate, but a highly electible one!

Keep it going!

Don't just hope for change, Vote for it!

Yesterday, the Clinton campaign sent out an email encouraging her supporters to make 30,000 donations in 48 hours.  Today, they sent out another one showing that they nearly reached that goal in 24 hours, and the new goal of 50,000 in 72!

If you support Hillary and want her to be able to counteract the massive ad buys of the Obama Campaign, please consider giving.  I gave another $15.44 to the effort, even though I really cannot afford it until Friday. However, it is that important that she makes this stand on Tuesday.

The polls are shifting in Vermont and Texas.  We could be getting some critical momentum.  Please help:

*UPDATE:* HillaryClinton.com is now reporting 36,831. KEEP IT UP!

Several stories on the wires today underscore just how important it is for Democrats not to be complacent and keep fighting as hard as possible until election day.

The Wall Street Journal/Zogby Interactive poll shows that the GOP may be able to keep control of the Senate. There are conflicting polls from other polling outfits but WSJ/Zogby is now showing the GOP leading in MO, TN, VA, and NJ. The Democrats have to win these key races and to be on the safe side need to have some upsets in states such as NV to regain control.

(x-posted from Kos)

I started posting diaries on Kos back in late March to help show support and draw attention to a local congressional candidate, Samm Simpson.  Phrases were thrown around by me and commentors like "purple district",  "18 term incumbent", "Grassroots support", I was overshadowed in my early diaries by stories of the day.  Be it Ned Lamont's campaign, be it one of the thousands of new outrages that the Current Occupier of the White House has bestowed upon us, etc...  Samm's campaign in Florida's 10th Congressional district has been overshadowed time and again when mentioned on Kos.

Florida and Congress, of course, are the hot button subject of the moment...  Unfortunately the focus is on FL-16 and not on other candidates that are in need of the netroots support.  I could make mention of Phyllis Busansky here but I believe she's good on her own because she's running against a Bush lapdog in FL-09.  More on the flipside
