Well, Hillary has finally, just about, bowed to the inevitable and suspended her campaign for the Democratic nomination for President of the United States. That is, I believe, one of those irregular verbs at which politicians excel; I suspend my campaign, you run up the white flag, he (or she) humiliatingly bows to the inevitable.
It is a shame, really. She is a fine looking woman and her election would have been seminal moment in the history of the oval office – one to add to the many provided by her husband in that very room.
My niece, Tabby, worked at the white house for a while as an intern after she left university, where she met the great man. I asked her what he was like. “Cocky,” she replied, which was hardly news. She did tell me, however, that he enjoyed a good gossip. Apparently he had the worst tongue in Washington!
