"Beyond that, her final hours before eventually conceding defeat made for the most underreported and bizarre story of a political exit I've ever seen ...."
My vote (for bizarre...certainly not underreported) goes to Howard Dean and the scream heard round the world. That was a 3-second political implosion I doubt I'll ever forget.
Dean? For a truth, that was the first time I ever heard a primal scream. Well, except for when I used to watch "Hee Haw!"
