Ohio is not a pretty place this time of year. It’s almost spring and it still looks like winter here. Everything is gray and dreary and everyone is gray, dreary, and overweight. Hasn’t Ohio ever heard of Weight Watchers or Jenny Craig?
Today I was asked a question at a rally by one of my local campaign supporters. She told me her name is Virginia, a slightly overweight middle-aged woman with too much makeup and not enough sun, and she asked, “Mrs Clinton, if you lose Ohio and Texas, will you concede defeat to Senator Obama?”
Despite the years of being in the public limelight, people just don’t know the real Hillary Rodham Clinton. Quit? It’s not what we do. Bill never quits. I never quit.
So, yes Virginia, there is life after Tuesday.
More than just pressing on, there’s not only life, but hope. Even if Senator Obama gets a slim victory in each state, he won’t get all the delegates. If we split the states, we split the delegates. I will press on. I have to. Otherwise they might ask me back to host Saturday Night Live.
