Bill Clinton: The race must go on
Bill Clinton is standing firmly by his wife, who stood firmly by him when he had a problem or two.
Here are highlights of a fundraising email the ex-president sent today on behalf of the woman he wants to be the next president. Devoted? Delusional? You make the call.
“I want to tell you about the day I had on Monday. I stopped in nine towns throughout North Carolina, starting the day at 7:30 a.m. in Elizabeth City and ending with a rally in Raleigh. That’s the most stops I’ve ever done in a single day - for any campaign. And I couldn’t be happier to work that hard for Hillary.”
“I talked to a lot of people that day, and one thing was crystal clear - people want Hillary to stay in this race until every last voter has a say. That’s why Hillary and I are working so hard. That’s why we’ve made a deep commitment to keep campaigning, keep fighting, and keep winning.”
“We have had a lot of success in this campaign, and our come-from-behind victory in Indiana is the latest example of how Hillary wins when she has your support behind her. As long as you share her commitment to winning, this race is going to continue.”
“I know something about coming back to win after you’ve been counted out. So does Hillary. Over the course of this campaign, the pundits have tried to declare a premature end to the race dozens of times. Well, last time I checked, it’s still up to the voters. And there are a lot of voters who haven’t had their say yet.”
