LETTERS: Thanks to Republicans for hard work
November 9, 2008
Calling all Republicans and McCain supporters.
I would like to thank you for all your hard work and support you have given to the Republican Party throughout this election. You all have done a wonderful job, and it is nothing to be ashamed of. We have fought a long, tough race that has been difficult on many Americans. Unfortunately the results did not turn out the way we would have liked them to. I know that it is tough to lose, but we most hold our heads high and be proud of what we have achieved. Just remember: Even though John McCain has lost, he still won 55 million votes. That is a lot of Americans who agreed with us on Tuesday. Now that this long election is over, it is important that we reunite. John McCain has asked us to serve our country and to always put our country first. That is what we must do. It is important that we congratulate the Obama supporters on their hard-fought, successful campaign. Even though we may not agree, it is important that we reach our hands across the aisle and work with them. Our country has some tough challenges ahead and it is important that we stick together as Americans, not Democrats and Republicans. Together we can work to make America a better place.
I also ask you to continue to fight for the Republican Party. We may have lost this election, but there are many more elections to come. We will win an election again. Stick to your principles and always remember to fight for what you think is right for America because America is worth fighting for.
