That's it, Ms. Clinton. That's exactly what you need to do.

Hillary Rodham Clinton's campaign has raised the possibility of a challenge to Texas' primary and caucus rules just days before the contest, drawing a warning against legal action from the state's Democratic Party.


Clinton political director Guy Cecil said he asked party officials to spell out the rules in memo form and to send them to both campaigns.


Texas party officials said they believed Cecil was threatening legal action and wrote a letter to him and to Obama senior strategist Steve Hildebrand reflecting that concern.


The letter also noted that many of Clinton's senior campaign advisers in Texas had helped to develop the rules governing the state's caucus system. A Texas party official also noted that former President Clinton won the state's caucuses in 1992 and 1996 following the same rules.



That's it, Ms. Clinton. Create the perception that your last desperate grasp for power is more important than the will of the people and the good of your party. Make it look as though you're willing to win on a technicality.

I say again: That's the other guys.

I do thank you, however, for continually silencing any remaining doubts I might have had, that my lack of faith in you is misplaced.
