My thanks to Hillary and her supporters, for testing Obama's mettle.
Thank you for staying with it, for "vetting" Obama with all the attacks, similar attacks that he will need
to face in the GE ... Obama has given the American electorate a demonstration of how to withstand all the
kitchen sinks (not to mention the toilets) anyone can thrown at him.

None of this would have happened before the GE without Hill & Co., so thank you very much for giving Obama
a run for his money, and not throwing in the towel too early.

IL and NC returns tell the whole story: Obama's proven himself to be the Democratic nominee-apparent, who
can and will defeat the GOP slime machine in the GE.

4. Yep. This is Obama's hour to shine, and I share your giddiness.
I'm so heartened by the electorate not buying into all that slime thrown at Obama, it's really
a huge turning point right now.

GOBAMA!!!

3. I would have preferred they didn't have attacks that were lies that may permanently turn off some
voters from Obama. They really were vicious at times while making character attacks on Obama. Sometime that damage is permanent.

5. Me too, believe me. But the silver lining is almost bigger than the cloud in this case.
We now have a fully vetted Dem nominee who has taking all the shit they could throw at him
and turned it into compost for the GE.

I'm loving it ;-)
