“We always come back”
President Bill Clinton sent this note to supporters before his speech in Charlotte tonight:
Don't take anything for granted.
Don't think you can wait because your neighbor is stepping up, or that someone else will pick up the slack. Don't think that you can wait until the debates, or until after these conventions.
When you look at what the other side is spending—and where they want to take this country—none of us can afford to think that way.
It is absolutely urgent we win this election, and the only way President Obama is going to win is because of what you do. Donate whatever you can to support Barack Obama.
We can win this.
Thanks for doing your part.
Bill Clinton

“Mitt Romney once said, I like being able to fire people. Well I can tell you from personal experience: He does.
“What I fault him for is making money without a moral compass. I fault him for putting profits before people like me. But that’s just Romney economics. America cannot afford Romney economics. Mitt Romney will stick it to working people. Barack Obama? Sticking up for working people. It’s as simple as that. That’s why I’m supporting him for a second term for president.”
“Our president, when he hears a young woman has been attacked, worries about his daughters—not his delegates or his donors.”
