If Hillary wanted change
She would have run in 2004. Instead she stood by and did nothing and the big dog actually went out of his way to undermine Kerry. She was fine with bush winning then, prefering to wait till he had his full term to run.

Its supposed to be her turn now, is that why she was so angry last night?

1. Because she's finding that those pesky voters don't seem to care...
...that her nomination is "inevitable," and persist in opting for someone else.

3. that 'inevitable' word ...
whenever I see it, it reminds me of the confidence Bush had before the final (?) count in the 2000 elections. He said something to the same effect and it gets my hackles up big time.

2. When Clinton ran for U.S. Senate from NY in 2000
Hillary made a public pledge that she would finish out a full term in the Senate if NY's voters elected her. Voters in New York did not want to be used as a simple way station on route to the White House.

Hillary made a pledge to serve out her term and she kept that pledge. Quaint, I know.
