Dear Senator Clinton,
I know that you have have been really busy running for President of the United States and look forward to being the first women to attain that honor. I appreciate that you will be denied the pleasures of an upstate Spring or the perpetual carnival that is the metropolitan area. With all due respect, you must help put the 'luv' back in New York. Please end your campaign and return home to restore the integrity of the state and your party. 
Included in this message is a copy of a letter addressed to the Lt. Governor, David Paterson. If Mr. Paterson would agree to also resign, New Yorkers could benefit from an election this fall for a new governor. I believe you are uniquely qualified to help the healing process and console the current First Lady of New York.
Thank you for the consideration of this letter.
Sincerely,
John/Jane Q. Public 99
Of course a snarky reference to the blind leading the blind or evil men would be inappropriate in a formal letter to the Senator, but hey you never know. I hope this absurd request is understood in terms of the other.
My own underlying motivation would be another shot at ballot access. If Paterson takes the helm as all expect to be the case, our chances as a party likewise diminish. If a scandal tainted recall or election could somehow sneak us in . . . well perhaps we all could re-read The Prince this summer. The Emperor certainly has issues, as does being in his club.
