NEW RULE

Expected Reconciliation is not news.

On Friday, Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton campaigned together. Concerning the event, I wrote nothing. Why? Clinton’s stumping is not news. She lost. Simply stated, she has no choice.

Every four years, Democrats select a nominee. The losers endorse and support the winner. In 2000, Bill Bradley endorsed Al Gore. In 2004, Howard Dean endorsed John Kerry. Their events were not news. Clinton and Obama are not either.
