Hillary rocks...then, well...

MANCHESTER, N.H.--This evening, unseasonably warm, finds your blogstress at a Hillary Clinton rally in the indoor track area of an airport health club. Hillary started strong, and her crowd was enthused. Bill and Chelsea are standing primly on stage. But a little more than halfway through the speech, she started getting too far down in the weeds with a laundry list of programs she wanted to start or amend. Thing is, I have no doubt that she would get a whole lotta good things done. But it's a dark time, and the laundry list does little to make me feel better about the nation's future in the grander sense.
