Here is an incredibly moving comment from the convention floor last night from Anne Price Mills, a delegate from Washington State. She is already getting threats and hate mail, which is very sad. She is speaking her heart and her mind.

A “historian’s dream” or a “diplomat’s nightmare?” Welcome to the new reality of the modern information age.

I appreciate the heartfelt comments from Anne Price Mills. I too felt devastated that Hillary did not gain the nomination and that Obama did not select her as his vice president.
Of course, we women of a certain age have experienced sexism and ageism. But just two months away, we face a choice — Obama-Biden or more of the same. If those who voted for Nader had voted democratic, we wouldn’t be in this situation. So, stop with the death threats already. This is a democracy. Consider the issues as well as the personality. Even Hillary asked, “Did you do it for me?”
I support Hillary because I respect her intelligence, her views, and her achievements. Obama and Biden are in the same family. Let’s support them in this election and continue to work or a better future for all women.
Wow. Did the republicans pay her? Does she realize that not voting at all is like voting for McCain.
She might as well cast her vote for McCain.
How unfortunate that CNN chose to air this right after Hillary’s speech. It was a set up!
