Multiple <blockquote>'s in a row using Markdown Syntax?

I'm trying to include multiple blockquotes using markdown, but I'm stuck on the syntax for closing out the initial blockquote and starting a new one instead of continuing in the current blockquote and adding additional paragraphs...

=== Current syntax ===

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>

>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

=== Current result ===

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review1
    -- <cite>Person1</cite></p> 

  <p>Review2
    -- <cite>Person2</cite></p>
</blockquote> 

=== Wanted result ===

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review1
    -- <cite>Person1</cite></p> 
</blockquote> 

<blockquote> 
  <p>Review2
    -- <cite>Person2</cite></p>
</blockquote&g开发者_JAVA百科t;

Put in a comment

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>

<!>

>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

or a manual line break

>   Review1
>   -- <cite>Person1</cite>

<br>

>   Review2
>   -- <cite>Person2</cite>

Result

Review1 -- Person1

Review2 -- Person2
