I Have Been Censored
Taking the woman at her word, I went to HillaryClinton.com and did as she asked tonight: I wrote a response to her blog post, in which she says:
"This has always been your campaign, and tonight, there's no one I want to hear from more than you. I hope you're as proud as I am of what we've done and that you'll take a moment to share your thoughts with me now at my website."
My comment was critical. I said she had blown an opportunity to be the unifier she promised to be, and to yield the stage to the nominee of the Democratic Party. I said the speech she gave was eloquent, but not the one Democrats or the country needed to hear. It's what I felt as she spoke tonight. It was not the worshipful pap that everyone else seems to be posting, but she asked for feedback, and I gave it.
I posted at about 11:35 pm. As I write this, it is 11:54 and my post has not been allowed to appear. I've been filtered out.
Apparently, if I really want to have my say, I can use this handy form at Hillary's home page:
Notice the comment box. That's the context in which Hillary will accept dissent.I'm with Jeffrey Toobin, re: "the deranged narcissism of the Clintons."

Have you checked back...sometimes it takes a little while for comments to appear. I completely agreed with your comment. Hilary was suppose to fly into where I worked at Centennial Airport many moons ago...I told my boss, you should give me the day off when she comes here because if I see her I may not be able to control myself nor my comments to her. I got the day off.
The enlarged quote I stuck into this post contains a link -- that's the underlined section. Click it and see where it takes you. It's how Hillary's campaign actually invited comment.
So cynical.
If she would have won the nomination I would have voted for her for President, but there would have been no joy in pulling that lever, mostly because of her scorched-earth tactics since Super Tuesday, and her inability to leave the stage gracefully.
Now we can all forget the ugliness and move on (without any hesitation on my part!) to support Barack Obama (hoping he picks any other VP than Hillary).
