Does someone have any spare Social Graces?

Enough is enough already. I can’t think of a time that I was so engrossed a primary yet so turned off. Does anyone else feel like they stepped into a kindergarten classroom? For being such a talented and bright woman Senator Hillary Clinton is doing a great job at making an ass of herself. Throughout the entire process Hillary has made backhanded remarks in reference to Sen. Obama and had more than a couple cases of foot in the mouth disease. Is she ever going to stop?

In a news article featured in the Washington Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/06/03/AR2008060303157.html?nav=hcmodule, Ruth Marcus writes that although the Obama campaign “deserves credit for pulling back. The Clinton forces, despite their good deal, stubbornly refused to compromise.” Yet again Sen. Clinton’s schoolyard behavior continues. In response to this compromise, Sen. Clinton claims that she was “hijacked.”

Thank goodness at least one of our candidates has been able to handle themselves with some semblance of gentility. If anything Clinton should try taking a page from the Obama book of decorum.
