Respectfully, it is too late Mrs. Clinton. The race has ended. The fat lady has sung. The closing bell has rung.
It is time for acceptance.
It is time to protect your legacy. It is time to hold your head high and act with the dignity to which your distinguished history of public service is entitled.
It is time to model grace.
He is The One. He is part JFK, part Bobby. He is part Martin. He is part Lincoln.
He symbolizes the good in America, the return of our constitution, the resurrection of our freedom, our second revolution, the end of fear. He elevates us to a higher purpose. He represents deliverance.
It’s too late for Plan B. It’s too late for Plan C. You heard so last night.
Every new attack hurts you many times more than it does him.
It will be as if you are attacking The One, JFK, Bobby, Martin, Lincoln, the promise of America, the hope of generations, not just here, but throughout the world. And the people will not stand for it. We saw that yesterday.
Even if it has some merit, any attack will backfire. He would represent the victimized, and you - the terrorist. And the people will fight back with the force of 7 years of suppressed anger. It is just too late.
We all heard. It was painful to watch. Even the mild pokes, the subtle hints, the old stuff "ready on day 1", triggered the stirrings of revolt. The sounds of condemnation. The boos. As if you were personally attacking each voter's son or brother or father. The people rose up ready to protect and fight – as if you were the bully, rather than the respected party leader.
The attacks will. not. work. Instead, model grace and dignity.
You must not go here. Do not lower yourself. You would generate ridicule, then scorn.
Your incomparable life of service, that of your husband, and the promise of your daughter’s do not deserve that. You deserve respect and appreciation.
Is there some possibility left that you could win? Not really; it is too late. For even if by some tiny chance you did, you would still lose. Because you would be vilified. You would be despised. Not by the old enemies, but also by your own party, especially its newest members. A vast left wing of hate. Your legacy would be "she who took down ‘The One’". She who stole the hopes and dreams of millions.
It is time for acceptance. And grace. You have a different calling. Create your next role. One that honors your tremendous lifetime of service and commitment. You and your family, your party, and your country deserve nothing less.
UPDATE: Reading this I can see why it appears as if I'm suggesting she quit the campaign now. I don't believe she should do that. But it is time for her to accept that the attack plan won't work. She needs to conduct herself with dignity. And, as pointed out by MadScientist, accept that it is too late to reinvent herself.
