Letter to superdelegates by Jim Andrews (the Hillary super who switched to Obama this morning)

The attacks on McCain haven't started yet. Those polls will change.

Exactly. It's a long road to November. Half a year, to be precise. Half a year ago, McCain's odds of being the Republican nominee were slim at best. And here we are with McCain as the nominee on the Republican side.

I think that this was a well written letter. Makes a lot of sense. Unless you're totally stuck in Hillaryland.

My speech ended with these words, which are even more relevant today:

The difference between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party is that you are always welcome in the Democratic Party.

Because Democrats don't care if you are black or white or brown or a nice shade of green, you are welcome in the Democratic Party.

We don't care if you pray in a church or a synagogue or a temple or a mosque, or just before math tests, you are welcome in the Democratic Party.

We don't care if you are young or old, or just don't want to tell your age, you are welcome in the Democratic Party.

We don't care what gender you are, or what gender you want to hold hands with; as long as you want to hold hands, you are welcome in the Democratic Party.

We don't care about the size of your bank account, just the size of your heart; and we don't care where you are today, just where you dream you want to be tomorrow.

That is your Democratic Party.

And knuckleheads who say ignorant things like these are why you can have your party.
