That Sense of Entitlement

Clinton went on TV this morning and said, essentially, that there should be a shared ticket. The only thing left to decide is who gets top billing. The implication, after last night’s victory speech, is that it should be her, because she won Ohio. Can someone double-check the Democratic Party rules about this? Does it say in there, “Whoever wins Ohio gets to the presidential candidate.” No? Hmm, maybe because the nominee is supposed to be the one with most delegates. And that ain’t Hillary. If she said something like, “I think I am at a point where it’s time to unify the party, and I would like to offer Senator Obama my services as the vice presidential candidate”, wouldn’t we all just go nuts? Yay, its over! With the strongest, best candidates leading the party back to the White House in 2008!

 

Otherwise, Hillary, please get over this idea that you are entitled to this nomination. You aren’t. And you are annoying those of us who really want to not hate you after all this is over.

This is (unrelated and) great: On Feb. 6th, Phil Singer (goes on and on and eventually) tells Alex Beinstein that the Clinton campaign won't blame the media if she doesn't win.
