In the Race

Now, here, you see, it takes all the blogging I can do to keep in the same place.
If I want to get somewhere else, I must blog twice as fast as that!
You see, I'm in the Red Queen's Race...

Why She Continues

After a bad week, with her comment regarding RFK taken out of context, Hillary Clinton felt she had some explaining to do. 

As usual, politicians from all sides are calling for her to pull out of the race.  But she wants to fight on.  And so, they ask, "Why?"


Why do I continue to run, even in the face of calls from pundits and politicians for me to leave this race?
I am running because I still believe I can win on the merits. Because, with our economy in crisis, our nation at war, the stakes have never been higher - and the need for real leadership has never been greater - and I believe I can provide that leadership.

[…]

I am running because I believe staying in this race will help unite the Democratic Party. I believe that if Sen. Obama and I both make our case - and all Democrats have the chance to make their voices heard - in the end, everyone will be more likely to rally around the nominee.

[…]

I am running for all the men and women I meet who wake up every day and work hard to make a difference for their families. People who deserve a shot at the American Dream - the chance to save for college, a home and retirement; to afford quality health care for their families; to fill the gas tank and buy the groceries with a little left over each month.

Oh, Hillary....

You left some reasons out, didn't you?

You know you have the most experience out of the two of you, don't you?

32 years?  Almost 33 now.

And you (and Bill) have planned this for a really, really, really, really, long time. 

You really don't want to go back to being just  Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton again. 

And the power, don't forget the power.

But you know what?

Whatever your reasons are, I don't care.

I wish you luck.

Because, at least we know where you are coming from.

Obama?  He's inexperienced and dangerous.

So, run Hillary, run....
