She should have went out on a high note. I really want to like her, but she makes it so hard.

2. Absolutely right.
He's gracious and can't say enough about her. "When we finally win the battle for Universal Health Care, and we will win, she will be central to that victory!"

And the crowd is being as gracious toward her as he is.

Can't say anything remotely similar about Hillary or her crowd tonight. Thank God Obama is our nominee.

and doesn't want to act that way.

5. She could learn a few things about graciousness from Richard Nixon
She really is not much in the charisma department is she?

Try being a gracious winner when you have to deceive yourself that you won.

11. I could never be that gracious to her after all she's pulled...
It reminds me of that thing Jesus said about turning the other cheek.

13. Agreed. That's why he's going to make an amazing President.
I couldn't turn my cheek to what she's done.

12. She could learn something about leadership.
In probably her last big public opportunity, instead of leading, instead of helping unify the party she had a big part in dividing, she gives us a big long repetitive list of "I want"s. And then suggests we go to her website and tell her what to do....screw that.

She "applies" to be a leader, stirs up a hornets nest and then walks away? What a miserable excuse for a party leader...
