Hillary's thoughtful lesson for all


Hillary Clinton's mien portrays a deep and steady character unique to her gender. One who should be effortlessly willing to disregard the stuborn devices of her kids in other to allow for the fluorish of their youthful souls. This refined and perceptable quality of motherhood is linked invariably with a reasonable degree of protective tendencytowards her wards.It is tempting to speculate that this trait may explain the phenomenal support she has gotten from the female adult population who are more likely to appreciate her. When her quest for Presidential primary nomination is view as a CHILD to be protected, it becomes easy to appreciate her resilience is refusing to concede to Obama inspite of of being behind in three important parameters; the total number of pledged delegates, Popularity vote and the number of states won. Should we blame her? Or learn from her humanity.

About a year ago, her successful nomination was more of an inevitable certainty. But so much has happened, largely unexpected, though with some flamboyance to destroy that conclusion. Because she was prodded to step down for Al Gore in 2003, it was expected that the Party Czars would exploit their weighty persuations to chastise any oppositon. The strenght of this reassurance must encourage a premature feeling of victory, even dragging one's perception into the future to embrace success in its real form. As defeat becomes increasingly likely, many thought she would throw in the towel.She has not!

It is essentially easy to appreciate the fact that true success is a mazy blend of ASPIRATION and OPPORTUNITY. She had the desire and was opportuned, but still unable to achieve Party nomination.In a way her perception already cherishes victory, but the reality is not consistent with her expectations, a CHILD which she can not afford to lose. On the outside, we see a fighter who is setting new standards for electoral contest, while on the inside, a conflict plays itself out. Accepting the unimaginable must compete with more maternal instinct of commnunal harmony (Party unity). Pushing on exposes her to the formidable risk of Democratic Party disenchantment. If she losses the nomination and the Party fails in November, the bulk will certainly stop on her desk, amounting to a political suicide.

Her actions leaves us with an inescapable lesson lesson; that we must always allow our imagination an exit strategy from the outset, no matter how favorably the odds favor us.
