When she stepped onto the podium and endorsed the presumptive Democratic nominee, it looked almost sad.
Sad for the millions of Hillary supporters. A huge relief for the delegates in the Hillary camp raring to endorse Obama. And the coming down of the primary curtains for the Obama campaign.
Obama can now finally look forward to the general election. He, for now, has the entire democratic party including Hillary's half right behind him.
However, having won 18 million votes, Hillary is a leader in her own right in the party now. She has now stepped out of her husband's shadow and will be a formidable politician in the American political arena for years to come.
People are already talking of her next avatar. Would she be the VP ? Would she contest for the Governorship of New York State ? Perhaps she would relaunch her bid in 2012 or 2016. Anythings possible.
Knowing the history of the Clintons, there is no soul who believes that America has heard the last of the Clintons, especially the tenacious fighter in Hillary.
A tactical retreat, for a bigger launch soon.
