Inadvertently, Joanie Vennochi betrayed herself today.
In the midst of a lugubrious "farewell Hillary" exercise (as IF Joan Vennochi ever gave two hoots in hell about Hillary Clinton) the Globe's resident sourpuss revealed she wrote Clinton's "political obituary" back before the Ohio primary.
Honestly, is THAT all Joan Vennochi does? Write and update political obits just waiting like an old magpie for the moment to swoop down and pour false sympathy over the departed?
Humble Elias cannot imagine what she has tucked away on her hard drive with the name "John Kerry" on it.
This is a mentality that has co-opted and internalized defeat to an astonishing degree, losing is forever, liberals always lose yadda yadda yadda blah blah blah.
Pa-thetic sez the old Misanthrope.
Losing is bad but there is only one sure way to lose and a million different paths to to all kinds of triumphs.
Hubert H. Humphrey wasn't elected in 1968...but given his ardor for the cause of justice....can anyone say he really lost?
Joanie doesn't get that, the only story she knows how to tell is one of liberal emasculation and humiliation.
I say we will start winning the day we stop letting the Joanie Vennochi's of the world keep score.
