Re: All About Eve (none / 0)

My main problem with the premise of the diary and the editorial on which it is based is the sense that somehow Clinton was the one that was owed this nomination. There is a real sense among some of her supporters that Obama usurped her turn and that is just not right. It was a competition to win the nomination that was extraordinarily close and the better organized candidate came out on top. Clearly I feel for Clinton supporters who are disappointed, especially women who have poured themselves and their aspirations into the nomination battle, but to suggest that somehow she got cuckholded out of her deserved spot by a younger, "prettier" face, is to denigrate what both candidates did and to make the whole process trivial.
