The only history to it was she made a further than any other women running for president but thats about it. I'm sure she had plenty more reasons to pat herself on the back on her center stage (which she lost). Obama made the history not her and I think it is eating at her that this guy came in and in her eyes stole her run for president.

That's about it? You trivlialize her campaign as if it happens every day or every four years. She ran a very close race and uncovered some weaknesses in Senator Obama's appeal in the process.

Had her strategy not been so flawed from the start, I can almost guarantee you it wouldn't have been Hillary giving the concession speech on Saturday. She made history. If we look at this in terms of second place, we totally undervalue and miss what happened here. And I know it's hard for us men, not all, to see how much of accomplishment this really is, but monumental doesn't fit the bill here. It was fucking big, okay.
