Hillary And The Gays
The editor of the Washington Blade unendorses the Senator from New York:
As someone who endorsed Clinton early in the campaign (well before
the mainstream media went ga-ga over Obama after his Iowa victory), I
saw her as the party’s best chance to beat the GOP nominee and the
candidate with the most relevant international experience to tackle the
myriad crises inflicted on us by George Bush.
Unfortunately, all the talk of experience and competence was belied
by a campaign rife with incompetence. From Bill Clinton’s ruinous (and
arguably racist) campaign swing through South Carolina, to an obvious
failure to craft a strategy past Super Tuesday, her campaign staff made
so many miscalculations that Hillary went from a coronation to a
shocking defeat...
The time has come for her supporters, gay and straight, to embrace
Obama’s campaign for the White House. The stakes are too high to allow
primary race disappointments to demoralize Democratic voters. And the
stakes for gay voters are higher.
Know hope.
