Five (5) Days of Humility in January - Was It Enough for The Clintons?

Happy Clinton, not Dour Clinton, steals second base in NH to keep race going ...
THE FIVE DAYS IN JANUARY - TRUTH TO POWER

When you become well known, and everyone's number is at your fingertips, you've worked the issues, and it's easy to raise money, mostly, you can swiftly get inured to thinking that you deserve a personal political history or that you ought to be rewarded.

Before she is really ready to serve, that all has to be extinguished from Clinton, no matter how accustomed she has become to being part of the ruling class.

So, the question remains, was the five days of humility in New Hampshire enough?
Any more moments, such as how she dismissed the Iowa voters after the caucus, and she ought not to make it, IMHO.

The electorate is not going to be "ruled" or taken for granted. One iota of it could swing the election, with some luck.

It appears that everyone is sick of having a King and a ruling class.

REAL CHANGE ALWAYS STARTS WITH A REVOLUTION OF THE INDIVIDUAL

AS seems genuinely surprised that there is a person behind the mask in Clinton. Those who saw it in her NY campaigns knew that the "phony" thing wouldn't be made to stick.

But that person is not without character flaws. She really has to completely transform from "I deserve it, because I've worked for it" to something much more like "It would be a sheer and ongoing privilege to offer my services to you".

Any more moments, such as how she dissed the Iowa voters, and she ought not to make it, IMHO, not in the big leagues. The electorate is not going to be "ruled" or taken for granted. One iota could swing the election. It appears that everyone is sick of having a King and a ruling class.

(By the way, the title of this section might be Obama's Act II or III, in one form or another.)
