You know, some people have been moaning a bit that she took a few days to do it, but let’s just think about how long it took John Edwards to make up his damn mind to endorse.
So, in all seriousness and honesty: Thanks, Hillary Clinton. Thank you for running and for proving that millions of men will indeed vote for a woman. I disagreed with quite a lot about how you ran your campaign, but you fought hard and I can hope that you’ll fight as hard to defeat John McCain as you did to defeat Barack Obama.
I linked to a post the other day that suggested Hillary Clinton for a Supreme Court slot, and I must say that I like that idea. Her biggest weakness has always been her (perceived and actual) political nature–her willingness to pander, if you will. The Supreme Court doesn’t have to pander. It’s a lifetime appointment. Once she was confirmed, she’d be free to rule as she actually feels, and I do believe that underneath the hardened political animal we’d see the person that really does hold progressive beliefs. So that’s my two cents. Hillary for Supreme Court!!
