POLITICS: Overstatement of the Week
I had to laugh at this Democratic fund-raiser calling her Party’s decision to not give Hillary Clinton a sufficiently prominent speaking role at the convention a “slap in the face…for…every woman in America.”
I have a feeling a good many women will get over it…and already are.
UPDATE: Michele Catalano has more on the greatest outrage of all time…ever.
It sounds like they aren't giving her any speaking role at all. Definitely odd. I remember they put Jesse Jackson on opposite the World Series one year. I guess they figure 'the base' will be at the convention and so the most controversial (energizing?) figures don't need to be on TV.
