    @patricia

    I'd suggest as a "fervant" supporter of Clinton you step up to support Obama, because in all due course, should he not win, Hillary won't have enough loose support to even begin to start again.

    You'd better take a broader outlook on what your interests really are. Take a good hard look. No give and take, no reciprication, no bright promising outlook for a new Clintonian political vocation.

    Mull it around and consider whether or not it makes sense, then hold the magic number of 18 million over our heads, and see if it really pays the rent.
