Time to Concede Clinton

03.12.08 | 2 Comments

How can a competitor who trails in delegates, popular votes, and states won have the unmitigated nerve to propose to that the front runner serve as her Vice President? One good thing about the long primary contest is that it really does expose candidates for what they are and Mrs. Clinton, you’re suffering from exposure. Obama is not a perfect candidate, no one is. Could he be more experienced? You bet. But of the democratic contenders, one is a leader and one craves power. It’s clear which is which and this is on plain display for anyone who cares to notice.

Given that there is only one viable candidate now, this is the official call for Mrs. Clinton to concede. Continuing to fight all the way down is good for no one, you lost on Super Tuesday and it’s highly unlikely that you’ll be able to recover. The only thing continued campaigning does is provide the opposition with data on what works and doesn’t work. They’re smart enough, they don’t need the help. Therefore, if you want to help your country, concede. It’s time. You might be a good technician, perhaps a Secretary of State or Attorney General, but the Oval Office is not in your future. It’s time to concede.
