Clinton taking a bow....finally

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/05/us/politics/05dems.html?pagewanted=1&_r=1&hp

The article in today's edition of the New York Times talks about Hillary Clinton's decision to concede to Barack Obama as the Democratic nominee for the general election. It also touches on her possible consideration of taking on the running mate slot on his ticket. This will be decided by a committee that Barack Obama has chosen. Whether or not she becomes his second in command is still up in the air. I will say though, after reading the article, it leaves me sighing with relief while at the same time asking, "What took you so long?" Fair's fair, he won, you lost. You've known it. It’s good that she will finally face the public as someone who put up much more of a fight than others would have thought she would, pat the man on the back and say, "good job...I'm behind you." This article is more than worth reading because it shows that finally, the entire Democratic party (yes, including Hillary), is willing to stand behind the winner. That's what he is and EVERYONE is willing to say it now. Do I see V.P. in her future….maybe, maybe not, but it sure wouldn’t hurt Obama’s chances……
