I thought i would post Maya's Poem for Hillary again, i know i know you've read it a million times already, but for me it just becomes more pertinent every day as this election campaign goes on. For all of those who say her story isn't as compelling as obamas, for all those who say she is a roadblock to history, for all the haters and for al l the doubters, Mrs Angelou has something to say and i suggest you listen.
State Package for Hillary Clinton
You may write me down in historyWith your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.
This is not the first time you have seen Hillary Clinton seemingly at her wits' end, but she has always risen, always risen, don't forget she has always risen, much to the dismay of her adversaries and the delight of her friends.[
Hillary Clinton will not give up on you and all she asks of you is that you do not give up on her.
There is a world of difference between being a woman and being an old female. If you're born a girl, grow up, and live long enough, you can become an old female. But to become a woman is a serious matter. A woman takes responsibility for the time she takes up and the space she occupies. Hillary Clinton is a woman. She has been there and done that and has still risen. She is in this race for the long haul. She intends to make a difference in our country. Hillary Clinton intends to help our country to be what it can become.
She declares she wants to see more smiles in the family, more courtesies between men and women, more honesty in the marketplace. She is the prayer of every woman and man who longs for fair play, healthy families, good schools, and a balanced economy.
She means to rise.
Don't give up on Hillary. In fact, if you help her to rise, you will rise with her and help her make this country the wonderful, wonderful place where every man and every woman can live freely without sanctimonious piety and without crippling fear.
Rise, Hillary.Rise.
Appearing onstage with Clinton and his wife, Mary, the two-term Democrat declared the New York senator "gets it." "It's time for somebody to be in the White House who understands the challenges we face in this country," Easley said, adding a gentle dig at rival Barack Obama's signature slogan of hope. "There's been lots of 'Yes we can, yes we should.' Hillary Clinton is ready to deliver," Easley said. Easley is term-limited and will leave office early next year. Both Democrats vying for the party's nomination to replace him have endorsed Obama, whom polls show with a substantial lead over Clinton in the state. Clinton, in turn, praised Easley as a champion of economic development in his state. "The governor and I have something in common -- we think results matter," Clinton said.

CHELSEA STOPS TRAFFIC ON GAY BAR CRAWL

Filed Under: 2008, Clinton
Among Hillary's many achievements i think one of her greatest is how she has brought up Chelsea under extraordinary circumstaces and done such a wonderful job. This Article Proves it.
PHILADELPHIA -- Chelsea Clinton stopped traffic Friday night as she wandered the streets of Philadelphia on a gay bar crawl, winning rave reviews for both her politics and her appearance.Led around the neighborhood by Gov. Ed Rendell, Chelsea was mobbed by local gays and lesbians, as she walked from one club to the next. They ran up to hug her, posed for pictures and certainly invaded her personal space.
Many polls show PA tightening as did SurveyUSA in their last poll, well looks like they have picked up a new trend.
Clinton now leads Obama by 18 points.
Barack Obama lost ground among certain groups of voters in the battleground state of Pennsylvania during the last week, according to a new poll.
If the Democratic Primary were held in Pennsylvania Tuesday, Hillary Clinton would beat Obama by 18 percentage points, according to the results of a SurveyUSA poll conducted exclusively for NBC 10 and three other TV stations across the Keystone State.
