Reflections on last evenings coverage of the DNC.... They emasculated Hillary. (Obviously that statement provides the basis for additional discussion, but for the moment try to focus on the fact that "the party" completely 're-contexted' Ms. Clinton.) She was relegated to the back pews, to a seat between her daughter and her 'husband,' re-contexted from leader to follower.) I swear even think I saw her hesitate to stand to accept the applause she received when acknowledged from the podium. Despite how one might feel about Hillary Clinton's politics, it appears that she was 'asked' (directed?) to behave very differently from the candidate that we have seen for the past couple of years. Hillary Clinton has been coming on strong, and seemed to aqctually be as strong as her marketed image in recent weeks. Last night she was Mrs. Clinton. Frankly I was disappointed. The Democratic Party hobbled one of its strongest members. I believe the move will be regreted.
