Arrogance Personified

This political season had been historic from the democratic perspective. We will have history made know matter who wins. But I find recent development disturbing. I find the recent declarations from the Clinton campaign the epitome in arrogance.

Senator Clinton has from the beginning of this campaign projected of an air of inevitability, as if she was ordained by God to be the democratic nominee. She is behind in the number of states and in the popular vote to senator Obama. But she has the unmitigated gall to suggest that senator Obama would be an excellent vice president..

This is an insult not only to senator Obama, but the democratic process. The arrogance of Senator Clinton with the suggestion that senator Oama would make a good vice president, when she is mathematically unable to catch senator Obama according to the majority of experts. Is an insult to the millions of individuals who have voted for senator Obama. She validates this tactic by referring to her wins in so-called big states as if some states in this process mean more than anothers because of the number of delegates forgive my naivety, but I recall from civic class, the one with the most votes is the winner. .
