jrtomMolly Ivins is generally my hero--her essays/editorials are well worth reading--but she really nails it with her latest, simply titled Not. Backing. Hillary.
I used to have more respect for Hillary Rodham Clinton. These days, though, she comes off like a politician angling for the main chance, rather than someone speaking from principle.
The most important part of this article, though, is not really about Clinton, but about pointing out that it would be really nice if the Democrats, as individuals, would grow freakin' spines already. And perhaps even make a point of presenting their own plans for how to do things rather than just sitting back and waiting for the Republicans to implode.
