    Looks like she's campaigning for 2012

    My six-year-old daughter and I were strong Hillary Clinton supporters, largely because of my daughter's desire to see a "girl" as president. When Hillary conceded, I explained that it was time for us to move on and support Barack, since he is the candidate who most closely adheres to Hillary's (and the Democratic party's)principles.

    This morning, my daughter saw part of Hillary's convention speech on one of the morning programs. "Mommy," she said. "If she's not running for anything any more, why is she still talking?"

    Fair question.
