She needs her rest.

Takes a lot of energy showing up for a debate and standing up for 90 minutes every other week.

The levodopa medication for her Parkinson’s cannot be depended on to get her through public appearances. They slipped up on 9/11. That’s her reality, more often then we are being allowed to know.

Does anyone recall the particulars of the 1948 Presidential race? Harry Truman ran what was known as a “whistlestop” campaign, from the back platform of a railway car, sending out notification he was going to be in town, stepping out on the back platform, and throwing put short stump speeches, drawing a response from the crowd, “Give ‘em Hell, Harry!”

Truman replied, “I don’t give them Hell. I just tell the truth about them and they think it’s Hell.”

The Donald is the one this year out there “giving them Hell”.

The somewhat more subdued and unimpassioned Thomas Dewey seemed to think the Presidency was his by right, and retired early on many days from campaigning, going to sleep on Election Day eve, thinking he had it won.

His win was a banner headline in the Chicago Tribune, the next day.
