Last of Our Kind

Why won’t Hillary Clinton get over the fact that she will not be the democratic nominee for president?

Perhaps she and her supporters are bitter. Maybe they are staying up at night waiting for a phone call that says something “unexpected” has happened to Senator Obama and therefore she would get the nomination.

Perhaps her supporters have good intentions and really do believe that by placing Hillary Clinton’s name into the roll call vote will unite the party. Maybe they believe that letting their “voices be heard” will some how be the catharsis they want. A big exhale they have all been waiting for. Perhaps.

To think that this would unite a party whose own members are still talking about Hillary winning the nomination is ludicrous. There are petitions floating around delegate circles to place her name on the ballot at the convention.

Sounds real unifying to me.

My bet would have to go against this being a unifying action. If Hillary gets a roll call vote it would not be the respectful lovefest she and her supporters think it would be. It will turn into her supporters yelling, screaming, chanting and raising hell AGAINST Obama. It would be broadcast on every network across the country, and my guess is by the end of the hour, featured in a new John McCain commercial.

So let’s please rethink giving Hillary Clinton and her supporters anymore time in the sun… I don’t think we want them to be burned again.

United we stand, or in this case united we’d fail,
