Hillary Clinton scored big wins in super Tuesday's Presidential primaries and won more than enough delegates to secure her party's nomination at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia. Clinton won the two largest prizes, the New Jersey and California primaries which were rich in delegates.
Clinton did what she said she would do from the very beginning, take her campaign to the people and not take any votes for granted. The pundits told everyone she might loose California and be embarrassed but just the opposite happened.
After the delegates cast their official votes at the convention Clinton will become the very first woman chosen as the Presidential nominee of a major political party in America. Her address Tuesday night after the primaries from her Brooklyn, New York headquarters struct the right tone and her accomplishment will have a positive effect for women in all walks of life. On Tuesday night the voters proved just how great America stands as a country. If elected President, she can set the tone for equal pay because her Presidential salary will be the same as past Presidents who have all been men.
She also acknowledged the positive role her mother played in her life and capped it off by saying her mother taught her how to deal with a bully. This writer thought she displayed her humor there. Yes, Tuesday night really was Hillary's night, and for good reason.
Note: Many remarks made by the pundits at Fox News, MSNBC and CNN after the election results were coming in were purely theatrical and the usual spin. No quality reporting there.
