I know you want to keep fighting. I know you've said again and again how you won't quit.
There is something called grace and honor, Senator Clinton.
You have a career. You have a lot of leadership to offer. You have a lot of service to offer this country. You jeopardize all of that every second that you choose to remain in this race. You cannot continue to galvanize a working class white coalition against Senator Obama. It is time to unite. Exit with grace.
You have no path to victory. If you keep fighting, you will still lose.
You career is not over right now. You're putting it on the line by keeping up this charade.
I can't find a transcript but last night on MSNBC, Pat Buchanan of all people made an uncomfortably accurate point. It was kind of courageous actually.
He asked, and I guess I'm paraphrasing here:
"How long is Hillary Clinton and her coalition of white working class voters going to whip Barack Obama, the African American nominee, before he deserves to move on and face John McCain?"
He's right. It's getting that uncomfortable.
The argument of Clinton surrogates, on display here, that somehow Mr. Obama represents the abandonment of white working class people is an abommination.
You're a fighter. Help us fight John McCain.
UPDATE:
Now you're ignoring phone calls from your most loyal Senate backers.
Senator Feinstein would like to know how you expect to win from here.
It is clear that you have no path to victory and that you have no viable answer for the Senator.
There's no need to keep going. It's not the end of the world, it's not the end of your career.
You don't have to feel like a loser but first you're going to have to stop acting like one.
Help us elect Senator Obama. Concede the nomination and help us fight for the Presidency.
