the results of the race, or that she is staying in, not emphatically. She merely didn't FORMALLY suspend her campaign and said she would make no decision "tonight" about how to go forward. Anyways, the decision's been made for her.
So, what did she really say?
~snip~
Now, the question is: Where do we go from here? And given how far we've come and where we need to go as a party, it's a question I don't take lightly. This has been a long campaign, and I will be making no decisions tonight.
But this has always been your campaign. So, to the 18 million people who voted for me, and to our many other supporters out there of all ages, I want to hear from you. I hope you'll go to my Web site at HillaryClinton.com and share your thoughts with me and help in any way that you can.
And in the coming days, I'll be consulting with supporters and party leaders to determine how to move forward with the best interests of our party and our country guiding my way.
TRANSLATION
"help in any way you can" = "give us a little money; give more if you got it!" for people who didn't grow up in southern churches, like I did
"no decisions tonight" = "I know the writing is on the wall; I'm just stuck in brave warrior princess mode with this fake smile on my face, and this misleading vague allusions to staying in the race, which I hope encourages you to give us a little money bomb so we can pay our bills."for people who don't speak "Clintonese"
"best interests of the party and the country" = "I will eventually put party and country before myself, but I am going to stretch this out and pout for one more night after 16 fucking months of physical and mental hell!"for people who don't realize that she probably felt justified in stealing a little thunder.
I for one, hope she gets a huge money bomb in the next day or two to pay off these damned bills. I don't want to penalize the non-profits, caterers, schools, rental halls or employees just because of timing. $9 million of that campaign debt is owed to small businesses and non-profits.
