I've tried very hard to not single Hillary out, for two reasons. One, at first I didn't think she needed the attention and now, out of sympathy I'd rather not be negative, but really, now . . .
From one aging boomer to another, woman to woman, Hillary, you need a reality check.
You've been way out on way too many limbs for too long. You've got too many skeletons in your closet and I know you think being Mrs. Clinton is experience, and I'm sure it's been an experience, but coming up with that maiden/hyphen/married name right after he got elected, sort of gave the rest of us the impression you wanted to stand independent of "your man." Now, you want all of his political tenure to be considered your experience, and yet some of his decisions seemed to simply be fulfilling the direction of Bush 41, so for those of us that are not republicans, we weren't so impressed. I think you needed to realize a long time ago, you were at a fork in the road. You have played it both ways for a very long time, but now, it won't work. If you claim to have been active in in his administration, you have to take responsibility for things like NAFTA . . . If you want to run independently, then you needed to stand up and say that, but no, you chose the maiden/hyphen/married approach and that is neither feminism or tradition, so you're ending up with it caving in on you. And you seem to be the only one that didn't see this mess coming. Now, I have to tell you what that reminds me of, or rather who. Our current president never sees the results of a bad decision coming at him, and he always tries to "clean it up" in the explanation. Well, some things can't be explained away, after it's a mess, and your campaign just will not get back on track with a few more excuses and firings. Face reality. You were the lead candidate by double digits, just six months ago. Now, it's "neck and neck" and that is really not accurate. Obama is leading, and not only is leading, in reality, he's got upward momentum and you have downward spiral. Then there's this whole super
delegate thing you want to influence. I have to tell you, Hillary, if you want super delegates to vote without representing the people, I'm not even interested in what you would do to us if you won the nomination and the election. By your comments regarding your hopes of the super delegates and the revision of the primaries for Florida and Michigan, you have made it very clear that you are not interested in the voice of the people and you already consider yourself above the rules. We've already had almost eight years of what you are demonstrating in your campaign. Hillary, the only thing you can do now, is preserve your dignity and bow out with grace. You've gone farther, politically, than any woman in American history and that is a lovely legacy to leave the future generation. Don't overshadow it, with denial of reality like the current administration. It's really time to stop and read the handwriting on the wall.
