Strange Days Indeed!

These are strange days! I never thought the day would come when I would:

1. Intentionally watch a Hillary Clinton speech
2. Applaud part of the Hillary Clinton speech (she DID do something historic for women in politics!)
3. Feel moved by Bill Clinton's obvious pride in and affection for his wife
4. Admire Hillary Clinton for her determination and class
5. Believe that Hillary Clinton would have been the right candidate for the Democrats to nominate for either president (which should have been their first choice) or vice-president (which should have been their second choice)
6. Feel bad for Hillary Clinton because, after garnering 1/2 of the Democratic votes, she's being discarded and forced into 'unity'
7. Believe that Hillary Clinton should have stayed the course and NOT conceded
8. Dislike another woman in politics more than Hillary Clinton (I'll leave my 2 or 3 readers to guess what woman that is)
9. Publish a political post on my blog

Yet all of these things have come to pass. Strange days . . .
