Clinton calls it quits
By JR Hoeft | Saturday, June 7th, 2008 | Politics
Hillary ended her presidential bid today and endorsed Obama. Perhaps the most fitting political eulogy came from the National Review:
Clintonism as a political style was mostly noxious. (Since we are in a real war, neither campaign will have a self-described “war room” this time.) But it made its bows to the Right on trade, on taxes, on foreign policy, even on social issues.
Obama pats us on the head — he understands our position, he says — and presses forward with an undiluted liberal agenda. The only thing worse than Clintonism may be what replaces it.
Of course, as predicted, she only suspended her campaign.
