Hillary has abandoned the Democratic party. Tonight was the night she was supposed to concede. She lost on the numbers. It's over. But she still insists on holding out. Can the crap about her RIGHTS. With every RIGHT comes a DUTY. She has a RIGHT to campaign, but she has a DUTY to support the winner. The party spoke, Obama won the delegates. She had a duty tonight to be a bigger person. She failed. She needs to be primaried out of her senate seat for disloyalty.
Compare Hillary's ego trip to Romney's exit. Romney knew he wouldn't win. The math was locked up against him. Romney thought to himself ... do I want to go down fighting? Or do I want to go down in service to party to defeat those liberal traitors for freedom? He wisely chose going down in service to party. Romney has a future in his party now. Romney will be long remembered as a party man who will take one for the team when necessary, an invaluable trait. Hillary has chose to go down fighting her own party's nomination of Obama.
