12. Wow, the replies to my post says a lot about the mindset of the group.

I did not post it to criticize those who want her to run. I used a poem that I was taught in my youth that wishing does not necessarily make things happen. Obviously a little to subtle for the group.

I would love Elizabeth to be the democratic candidate, I would donate more to her than I have ever done for any candidate, including Obama. However, with all the combined considerable efforts of those groups who want her to run, she keeps insisting that it is not going to happen. A child's poem about the futility of wishing is a little too much for some of you. If she does not run, I hope you will be able to deal with your loss in a more mature manner.
