From Sunny sent to Women for Obama Today

Dear Obama Supporters:
Hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend and know you were pleased about the new delegates Obama picked up! I'm sure you were also truly moved by Obama's commencement speech at Wesleyan University as was I. His standing in for Teddy Kennedy and embracing that family's legacy of public service was both inspirational and hopeful. To hear the words, "it is time again for a new generation of leadership...and if one man can achieve so much and make such a difference in the lives of so many, then each of us can do our part." Wow, he struck a cord with me and the students in the audience to change the world through service to others, a theme both Obama and Senator Kennedy plan to focus on. Obama made specific suggestions like urging the students ,"to help rebuild New Orleans, volunteer at a local soup kitchen, or help end the situation in Dafur, and to remember that change will come, though not immediately" . So the immediate reinforcement that young people have been so anxious to achieve has to be put aside for the slow and difficult winds of change. The speech was truly a wonderful acknowledgement of the bond between the two men, and the respect Obama has for Ted Kennedy. One student's comment really moved me, "The speech made me feel like we have never been asked to do anything, and the fact that he asked us was appropriately overdue". It made me think of all the positive energy and caring I have come across in Barack Obama's careful and enduring campaign. When the Women for Obama were asked to step up to the plate ,we delivered and so has he! The weekend and the weather were helpful in overcoming the sadness of HWC's unfortunate RFK comment that was the main topic of the day! It was even suggested on the front page of the NY Times Monday, "that Clinton could face an uneasy return to the Senate". She would return to that position as No. 36 of 49 Democrats which is fairly bad as seniority goes, but this is not her only problem. She returns to a "club" where more Democratic members, some quite pointedly preferred Obama, and spurned her. It is a sad look at a situation that has been going from bad to worse. ********(See Stephanie at end of e-mail for whole article)
"Today, Bill has stated there is a cover up," Former President Bill Clinton said that Democrats were more likely to lose in November if Hillary Clinton is not the nominee, and suggested some were trying to "push and pressure and bully" super delegates to make up their minds prematurely."I can't believe it. It is just frantic the way they are trying to push and pressure and bully all these super delegates to come out," Clinton said at a South Dakota campaign stop Sunday, in remarks first reported by "ABC News."Clinton also suggested some were trying to "cover up" Sen. Clinton's chances of winning in key states that Democrats will have to win in the general election.
How very sad for the legacy of the Clintons.
