Clinton tells women: 'YOU made the difference'


Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign tells female supporters in an e-mail, "YOU made the difference" in her Pennsylvania victory last week.


"Women made up 59% of the electorate in Tuesday's Democratic primary in Pennsylvania, compared to 53% in 2004. And women made the difference — Hillary won women 57%-43%," reads the note from Clinton adviser Ann Lewis.


It comes along with a Web video made by the senator's North Carolina volunteers.


"She is the only candidate I trust," one woman declares, while another calls Clinton "the only candidate that is committed to doing away with No Child Left Behind."


She also is the "only candidate with an economically viable health care plan" and the only one "ready to take over the White House," the video claims.


"The best man for the job is really a woman," it concludes.







The also note asks for more help:


1. Help raise small contributions: Hillary won in Pennsylvania despite being outspent 3 to 1. Now, with nine more contests to go, our campaign needs the funds to continue to make her case. If you've already contributed as much as you can, reach out to people you know, and ask them to make contributions of $10, $25, $50 — smaller contributions add up! Go to http://www.hillaryclinton.com/women4hrc to give Hillary the resources she needs to win.

2. Continue our women-to-women outreach: Indiana and North Carolina vote on May 6 — less than two weeks away. For more information on traveling to upcoming states and to sign up, click here. If you can't travel, you can make phone calls wherever you are. Go to www.hillaryclinton.com/makecalls to get started!

Here we go again, sexism and racism are on the leading edge of politics while the economy, energy, immigration, national security and now global food shortages caused by inept analysis are washed over like red lead over rust. Right now, the polls don't indicate that health care and "No child left behind" are the top issues for all of America.

GUESS THIS IS MORE OF A WOMANS MOVEMENT CAMPAIGN NOW INSTEAD OF A PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. TYPICAL.......
