You go, girl

When the home team is ahead, it forfeits its end of the ninth inning. When there's a few seconds left on the clock, the quarterback takes a knee. In other words, in team sports, if someone is going to win without any question, even before the game is officially over, the loser has to give up. That's the "rule." And the boys in the yakking section believe it ought to apply to politics. What a fun story this is, that the woman is telling those boys to stick it in their ears, she's marching on, she'll take the debt and the arrows and the hassle and the headaches and loose-cannon Elvis and the constant sexism and insults ... and she's marching on. A lot of people, my sister the Ph.D. in history among them, have become completely knee-walkin' on Obama-ade and believe that if they personally can shriek at Hillary loud enough, she'll slink away. Frankly, I just don't see how this fantastic story hurts anyone ... except the people who don't like it. What a story.
