Grace under Fire
Hillary doesn't have. What is this monomania? Maybe she wasn't defeated in a landslide, but why is she not just sacrificing but murdering her own honor, the honor of her family, and willing to do same with the Democratic Party and the country to be president? Should she somehow, by some nefarious selling of her soul to the devil, be able to pull this out for herself, she will then be exposing herself to the Republican shredding machine who will surely drag out everything they can about her husband's suspect finances and behavior since leaving the presidency. And they will be much more successful with their attack machine I fear than they would be against Obama where they are more likely to sound racist, hate-filled, fear-mongering and counter-attackable.
It would be so wonderful if she could gracefully, honorably, admit defeat. A close defeat, but defeat nonetheless. Obama is too polite to say it, but there's pathology here: madness.

I agree. If only, if only... she could show a little grace...
Did Bill ever show grace, as President? Can't remember once.
I think he is responsible for preventing her from letting go of her (and his) dream.

I Hillary doesn't get to be President, then Bill is going to have to deal with what is left! Can you blame him for pulling out all the stops?
