Every detail was designed to mark Hillary Clintons moment in history from the glass ceiling at Manhattans Javits Center, where her supporters were gathered, to her and hubby Bills suite at The Peninsula hotel, selected so she could personally see Trump Tower, home to the foe she was set to crush. Then came the voter returns. In this exclusive excerpt from their fascinating new book, Shattered, political reporters Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes take readers inside Hillary Clintons world on the night that changed her life and the nation forever.

Glass ceilings have been broken all over the world. Does this mean anything about the United States? No. But it does mean that suitable candidates have yet to present themselves.
I still like a candidate with some military experience.
Democrat/Republican, Clinton/Bush, Ryan/Pelosi...what the hell's the difference anymore?
That’s what I’m talking about. These same liberals and women talking about woman power and all that, were disdainful of Sarah Palin being nominated for VP, as an example of a conservative woman on the national political scene.
If they were intellectually honest about all of that, they would be celebrating and supportive of all women in politics, even if some such women are Republican.
Ditto how the liberals have had disdain for people such as Clarence Thomas and S.C. Senator Tim Scott. Again, if they want to promote the rising of black people into high positions, they should celebrate having a black US Senator, even if he’s Republican, and a black Supreme Court justice, even though he’s on the conservative side.
Off topic, but speaking of Tim Scott, he was elected by a mostly white electorate, in a state of the old South. A state which liberals stereotype as a backwards relic of racism and discrimination and all that. White voters put him in office in that allegedly racist state.
Agree. Everything we know about her, from the Watergate trials, to the Arkansas governor’s mansion, to her Senate gig, to her ‘08 primary campaign, to SOS, to the ‘16 campaign, is 180° out of phase with this excerpt. The writers whitewashed it.
I read the book——there is nothing in it about their behavior on voting night that we didn’t already know.
.
I searched by article title. Nothing.
When Trump won FL I knew it was curtains for Hillary.
OH & PA were icing on the cake. MI & WI a dagger.
This description of the events of that evening are from an alternate reality. There’s no way in the world that Hillary would quietly accept defeat as described, let alone quietly apologize to Obama.
Ridiculous.
No, no this does not have the story recorded correctly!!
There is NO WAY our rager HRC was so docile in defeat....
PICS, we need pics....
“I know, I know. Old news. But it’s just so much FUN reading about it again.”
Truly, it is.
there. fixed it.
just telling the truth. One Bohemia coworker asked me why she wasn’t getting any men to date for a long-term. I said well the last guy you slept with had herpes and you knew it. They are not going to respect you.
She got very angry.
Sorry folks, the Entitlement Train has derailed. Keep up the tantrum for four years and it will be the same thing all over again.
In the accompanying picture of the spillover crowd, there are no American flags.
They also elected Linseed Graham............
ALL the food and cutlery in the reception banquet room had been thrown EVERYWHERE.
She was apoplectic in her anger, screaming and screaming, then got so drunk that when she called her childhood friend to complain about her defeat she was slurring her words so badly as to be INCOMPREHENSIBLE.
Podesta was sent out to make a statement CUZ HILLARY WAS BLOTTO, drunk as a skunk, three sheets to the wind, etc.
“EVERYONE’S FAULT BUT MINE”
Now THAT's my county!
Are any of these glass ceiling “womyn” ready to rally for LePen in France?
Thought not. :-)
