As it now looks like Obma is quickly becoming the presumptive nominee, it would nice remember why democrats and progessives should appreicate Hillary Clinton. Yes, she is ambitous, but she put many important issues forward for debate. Yes, her advisors have attacked our Obama (sometimes unfairly, but she's one of us and a genuine champion for progressive causes.
Hillary, I love you. That's why I'm going to help you out this mess. I'm going to bury you by voting for Obama in PA
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;
I come to bury Hillary, not to praise her;
The evil that women do lives after them,
The good is oft interred with their bones,
So let it be with Hillary ... The shady pundits
Hath told you Hillary was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Hillary answered it ...
Here, under leave of Matthews and the rest,
(For Matthews is an honourable man;
So are they all; all honourable people)
Come I to speak in Hillary's funeral ...
She was my friend, faithful to our ideals:
But many say she was ambitious;
And they are all honourable people....
She hath brought progress to our Rome,
Her husband did the general coffers fill:
Did this in Hillary seem ambitious?
When that the poor have cried, Hillary hath wept:
Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:
Yet many say she was ambitious;
And they are all honourable people.
You all did see that in Michigan
She said the primary wouldn’t count,
But now, behind, it must be counted: was this ambition?
Yet many people say she was ambitious;
And, sure, they are honourable people.
I speak not to disprove what many people spoke,
But here I am to speak what I do know.
You all did love her once, not without cause:
What cause withholds you then to mourn for her?
O judgement! thou art fled to brutish beasts,
And men have lost their reason.... Bear with me;
My heart is in the coffin there with Hillary,
And I must pause till it come back to me.
