Clinton Contrition
This is what they live for, Bill and Hillary, and they delivered the goods. At the Democratic National Convention in Denver and a huge national television audience, both Clintons delivered moving speeches calculated to unite the Democratic Party and sway undecided voters to back Barack for president. Was that so hard? For them, yes it was. And I fear it will continue to be.
But for now, let's give props to the Clintons. After months of unsubtle swipes at Barack Obama, some decidedly below the belt, the Clintons put on their best face at the final hour when it mattered most.
Stay tuned though. 2012 is never far from Hillary's mind. Bill's too. Let's hope that between now and November, they shelter their ambitions and continue to let the nation believe they truly support the Obama-Biden ticket. But when Bill Clinton stepped on stage on the song "Don't Stop Thinking About Tomorrow" was blaring, I'm sure I wasn't the only one thinking that it means something very different now than it did in 1992.
