Hillary Clinton had concession speech ready ... but she was too upset to give it
Evening Standard ^ | November 9, 2016 | David Gardner

And when the moment came early today to admit that her lifelong dream of becoming America’s first woman president had been dashed, she simply couldn’t face the world.

The devastated Democratic candidate remained locked in her New York hotel room as it became clear that her glass ceiling had come crashing down around her.

And she was left ruing what could have been while Donald Trump was celebrating his unlikely election day triumph on stage at another hotel just two miles across Manhattan.

She may be back in four years. The animatronics will have improved by then.

That was my theory too. And that she was on an IV this morning and still can’t get her stuff together to get up there and speak.

Proves her campaign was always all about herself.

Absolutely. A leader doesn't do this, a self-absorbed politician does. I mean, come on, this is a group that has donated money, time, sweat, even blood, to see their candidate to the ballot and to promote her to the election. They deserve something better than a third-rate consigliere getting shoved out onto the stage to tell them to go home now. It doesn't even have to be complicated, a "Thank you, we gave it a good run," would have sufficed. Not nothing. Nothing doesn't suffice.

It simply strains credulity to envision Hillary Rodham Clinton sobbing inconsolably. This is, after all, a woman with a well-earned reputation for petting fuzzy puppies just before she tears their little livers out with her teeth. Shrieking, throwing objects, blaming everyone around her but herself, that I can easily envision. It may be that this isn't the impression her staff wanted to reveal to the outside world, but she did let her people down, and that too is very revealing.

so close to reaching her lifelong dream, but came up short twice. Just too much for her to handle. Historic first woman president speech thrown on the trash heap. Also, grand plan to see magnificent fireworks through the Javitz Center glass ceiling was a BUST.

The ultimate arrogance and...Hubris.
What was she thinking. Before the elections took place?

That must have been the final absurdity from a deteriorating mind.

Hillary will be proven to have been clinically insane.

The only remaining question is when did it begin? And how bad might it have gotten before serious intervention was inescapable?

She's gotten off easy. So far.

Ya think?!!?

She has not yet dealt with accountability!

Her Criminal infrastructure has disintegrated, and after spending hundreds of million$ and deluding herself that she didn't have to campaign because didn't have to, it all came crashing down around her head.

I was actually speechless when it was announced that she was about to deliver an actual concession speech.

Yep, the Clinton machine has been destroyed and it's time for her to pay for her crimes. Her front line troops - the MSM and Hollywood - are shell shocked and in full retreat. They will be turning on her soon in an attempt to save their own hides.

Her elite troops - the DNC and Clinton operatives - know the money machine has run dry and will not be returning her calls for long, let alone rushing to her defense at the cost of their (tattered) careers.

Her generals - Podesta, Blumenthal, et.al - are mortally wounded or holed up in their hidey holes hoping the men with the badges overlook them.

And finally, her paid mercenaries - the FBI and DOJ honchos - see that she is done for and will be selling their services elsewhere. She is well and truly done. Prison is in her future for sure.
