You want to know the exact moment I realized that Hillary Clinton was Charlie Brown? It was that moment in New Hampshire when asked what keeps her going. It was the look inside the soul of "The Real Deal". I suddenly realized that I loved her for all the reasons I have loved Charlie Brown over the years. No matter what's done to Charlie Brown, he never gives up. How many times is he laughed at, has he had the football pulled out at the last second of his attempted kick, has his kite fouled up in the tree? But there he was the very next day, ready to have a fresh go at what ever frustrated him the day before. Why did millions of us love Charlie Brown? Because he gave us hope! His youthful innocences to overcome any indignity and have a fresh go at whatever he wished to accomplish. I always wondered what would happen if there ever came a time when Charlie Brown didn't go to the garage and take the kite out that one more time. And then one day I found out. The very next day, his creator died. Hillary, you are the real one that we have been waiting for. You inspire us because of the way you have shouldered the pain and responsibility all these years. During the Primaries you took a beating across the networks every night. But the next morning, there you were, with a smile and can do attitude. Can we do less? One more time! On to Denver! String the kite, tee up the Football, Charlie Brown is not ready to go quietly into that dark night. Hillary isn't dead! It's the DNC that is in triage. There are a lot of grains of sand on the beach and drops in the ocean, but some of them sparkle. Charlie and Hillary are two such specks in this cold universe. It's our job to make the "super delegates" see it. Hillary Is “Charlie Brown”!

And thanks y'all for your kind comments regarding my loss. It is much appreciated. Oh, yes - Hillary Clinton was on the Ellen Degeneres show at least 3 times that I can think of this primary season.

After that 15 yr old boy was killed because he was gay, Ellen said quite clearly that we needed to vote for those people who would support US, and had good policies regarding the LGBT community. She seemed pretty clear that she meant Hillary. And she was right.

Pat Buchanan tried to give her valid reasons why it would make sense for OB to give Sen. Clinton over any othet woman consideration but, she kept at it.

Lack of information, fear and health insurance all play a part in this tragedy. Even as I write this I feel a deep sense of loss for all of us who care about this issue.
