Hillary Clinton is acting like a spoiled child. She is losing the game and now she wants to change the rules. It’s a little late for that and her rancorous behavior is only hurting the party and its chances of winning back the White House in November.
Senator Clinton is insisting that the delegates from Florida and Michigan be seated even though those states broke party rules and were told beforehand that their delegates would be disqualified. Why do I get images of a playground where a bratty little child starts stomping her feet and insisting that the rules be changed so she can win a game she has already lost?
Luckily Howard Dean and the Rules Committee might just have better sense than Senator Clinton. Changing the rules now would result in 48 really pissed off states and a flood of even earlier primaries next time. This primary season has gone on far too long already, the last thing we need is the distraction of a floor fight at the convention while John McCain is already campaigning for the White House.
Senator Clinton,
You have made a historic effort and paved the way for the run of future women for the highest office in the land. You are a true fighter and a worthy competitor, but it’s time to stand down. Join the party and start working to reclaim the White House for Democrats and stop trying to screw this election up.
