dear senator clinton

It's time.

Stop acting like this is "your turn". (Pssst... nobody's entitled to a turn in a democracy!)

Stop comparing yourself to abolitionists and voting rights activists who actually sacrificed their own interests for the greater good.

Stop pretending that you're keeping on for others as you handicap the Democratic Party for the sake of your own ego and ambition.

Stop putting those of us who once admired and supported you in the position of defending indefensible conduct.

Stop using racism as a sword and sexism as a shield.

Stop lying to us.

Stop deceiving yourself.

Stop campaigning for John McCain.

Please. Just... STOP.
