My Tepid Nod To Hillary

So Hillary is in the race in 2016. One-legged man that I am, I'm not dancing in the streets... Hillary is many things I am not... but considering the field of GOP terrorists already announced or contemplating a run, and that it appears there will never be a genuinely progressive major party candidate for president in my lifetime, I will back Hillary if she gets the Democratic nomination. One can contend against intraparty politics, but contending against such a clear trend is truly tilting at windmills, and I'm too old for that. So, yeah, Hillary 2016. It's her year.

This is from WaPo, at the above link:

Clinton summed her long and colorful biography in cheeky fashion when she joined Twitter in 2013: "Wife, mom, lawyer, women & kids advocate, FLOAR, FLOTUS, US Senator, SecState, author, dog owner, hair icon, pantsuit aficionado, glass ceiling cracker, TBD..."

Not a bad summary. TBD indeed: it's going to be a long 1½ years of determining. Those of us who love the country of our founders and its actual living Constitution as amended (not the one that exists only in the minds of tea-baggers) had better put aside our reservations and get busy determining right away.

Hillary 2016!
