Of The Year Awards." November 10
That old Hillary spunk is not there, the one which came up with the "I could have stayed home and baked cookies" and "the vast right-wing conspiracy."
It looks like Obama has taken the wind out of her sails. She now looks like a matronly grandma, who might just stay at home and bake the cookies.
I think people should fight at the appropriate moments, and know when those moments are. Her moment was when the stories on Obama kept unraveling during the campaign. She backed down. This could have been her victory.
But then, on what principles would she have really fought? I suspect she agrees with much of what Obama says, and also with the public's "first black man as president" euphoria. Maybe her fight would have been so superficial as not to count for much.
In fact, that is just what happened.
