The Hillary we love
The Reaction — ... . What an awesome speech. What a reminder of why Hillary did so well in the primaries, of why she continues to have such ardent supporters (even if the media continue to sensationalize the divisions in the party), and of why so many of us who eventually came to support Obama liked her so much -- and, the bitterness of the campaign now behind us, like her so much still. ...

This Would Represent A Problem For Barack Obama
RedState: Conservative News and Community — It cannot be stressed enough: The last place Kathy Archuleta could have ever imagined she'd spend the first night of the Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado, was at a happy hour sponsored by the Republican Party.  But the 54-year-old Democrat joined several other Hillary Clinton supporters, along with volunteers and officials from John McCain's campaign, at a Happy Hour for Hillary.

The Moderate Voice — ... backing McCain — a phenomenon that has stubbornly refused to die, even on the opening day of the Democratic convention, even after Sen. Clinton’s so-called “unity speech” on the convention’s ...

What the Clinton Appointment Means
AntiWar.com — ... division of labor sets the stage, in this scenario, for the Great Concession, as it may deserve to be called. Obama may have won the Democratic nomination, but his victory at the convention and at the polls in November surely did not weld together a united Democratic Party.
