(646 posts)Clinton Ends Campaign With Clear Call to Elect Obama
By ADAM NAGOURNEY and MARK LEIBOVICHJUNE 8, 2008
WASHINGTON Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton brought her campaign for the White House to an end on Saturday with a rousing farewell to thousands of supporters here and an emotional and unequivocal call for her voters to get behind Senator Barack Obama, the man who defeated her for the Democratic nomination.
For 28 minutes, standing alone on a stage in the historic National Building Museum, Mrs. Clinton spoke not only about the importance of electing Mr. Obama, but also about the extent to which her campaign was a milestone for women. She urged women who had supported her who had turned out at her headquarters, flocked to her rallies and poured into the polls to vote for her not to take the wrong lesson from her loss.
