Down But Not Out?
Hillary Rodham Clinton's best bet right now is for everyone to conclude that she's a loser.
Stay with me a minute. I haven't totally lost it.
For close to two years, the presidential race has been all about her. She was the front-runner, she was inevitable, she was, above all, a Clinton. Barack Obama was a newcomer, a phenomenon, a rock star, an Oprah-certified inspirational force, but Hillary was the virtual incumbent. The Republicans kept running against her.
When Obama won Iowa, the story was, Hillary loses. When Obama lost New Hampshire, the story was, Hillary's comeback. The plot line has always been whether the Hill and Bill and their unstoppable machine could be denied.
What? Clinton has seen what it takes to be the president of our country. I believe she knows what she is doing and is capable of doing a good job of it. Men have run this world for way too long and it is time for change! This is the year. Clinton will win.
