I think this is an email worth sending to everyone in your address book.

Florida for Hillary Supporting Obama

========================

If an old colloquialism about lipstick sends the Mavericks into a tail spin, a phrase John Mc Cain has used three times in 6 months, how can McCain/Palin deal with Ahmadinejad or Putin.

Lipstick, lip service?

Palin has no choice but to hide behind tired gender bias, because she is so limited in understanding the world. How come we’re not talking about her misunderstanding Sunday of Freddie and Fannie, thinking they are taxpayer funded.

The economy is the only bacon I’m wanting to discuss.

Likewise, her campaign insisted she could not meet with reporters yet, because she has the right to be home with her son that is leaving for the Army. I agree.

But she hasn’t been home with Track, she has been regurgitating her Bridge to Nowhere and Ebay slogan all over the country. Her favorite shade appears to be Sassy September Lies!

Stick the lipstick and tell the truth about our economy and the war!

Ask your neighbor that has lost their home or business after working diligently for years, what shade they wear.

Ask your children who attend low performing schools and are worried about the cost of college, if make-up is their only concern.

Ask your parents, terrified about future healthcare coverage and their 401k’s if they lose sleep over a common comment.

Ask the mothers in Darfur, the elderly without medicine, the homeless in shelters, and the war orphans in Iraq, if they are afraid of four nonsensical words like “lipstick on a pig” or if they are terrified of the phrase “four more years.”

FLORIDA FOR HILLARY ANNOUNCES ENDORSEMENT OF SENATOR BARACK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT

FLORIDA HILLARY SUPPORTERS COMMITTED TO ELECTING DEMOCRAT TO WHITE HOUSE

FLORIDA STATEWIDE - Florida for Hillary, the statewide campaign that was largely responsible for her big win in the Florida Primary announces its endorsement of Senator Barack Obama for President.

“Throughout this historic campaign and her incredible life, Senator Clinton has fought for issues that the people of Florida care deeply about, including the expansion of children’s health care, the creation a national catastrophic insurance fund and the protection of Israel,” said Ana Cruz, Co-Founder and spokesperson for the group. “Senator Barack Obama will fight for these same important causes as President, and we look forward to working with him to make sure that Florida voters are heard.”

Florida for Hillary is an organization of Democratic elected officials, party leaders and activists from across the state who mobilized grassroots support to ensure a victory for Senator Clinton in the Florida Democratic Primary on January 29, 2008.

The group now turns its energy and attention to electing Senator Barack Obama the next President. Florida for Hillary will work hard to ensure that every single Floridian who cast their primary vote for Senator Clinton now votes for Senator Obama in November.

“The differences between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are small, but the differences between Democrats and Senator John McCain are enormous,” said Co-Founder of Florida for Hillary Alan Clendenin. “John McCain wants to continue the failed policies of the Bush administration. Barack Obama will deliver the change this country desperately needs.”

The vote in Pennsylvania a measure of the coalition she will put together to compete and win in November.  Barack Obama can not close the deal  Hillary Clinton has and will.

But after the Obama campaign’s “go-for-broke” Pennsylvania strategy, after their avalanche of negative ads, negative mailers and negative attacks against Sen. Clinton, after their record-breaking spending in the state, a fundamental question must be asked: Why shouldn’t Sen. Obama win?

Sen. Obama’s supporters - and many pundits - have argued that the delegate “math” makes him the prohibitive frontrunner. They have argued that Sen. Clinton’s chances are slim to none. So if he’s already the frontrunner, if he’s had six weeks of unlimited resources to get his message out, shouldn’t he be the one expected to win tonight? If not, why not?

As the phrase goes, watch what they do not what they say.

There’s a reason Sen. Obama and his campaign have ratcheted up their year-long assault on Sen. Clinton’s character and ended the Pennsylvania campaign with a flurry of harsh negative attacks. It’s because they know that a loss in Pennsylvania will raise troubling questions about his candidacy and his ability to take on John McCain in the general election.

And it’s because they know that the race is neck and neck and tonight’s contest is a measure of where the campaign stands.

The reality is this: both candidates need a combination of pledged and super delegates to secure the nomination - and either candidate can reach the required number. The press and the pundits have repeatedly counted Sen. Clinton out and she has repeatedly proved them wrong. The vote in the bellwether state of Pennsylvania is another head to head measure of the two candidates and of the coalition they will put together to compete and win in November.

No amount of spin from the Obama campaign will change that - nor will it explain away anything less than a victory by Sen. Obama.
