Hysterical woman vapors

"It is the most amazing thing that a young black man who was just a few short years ago unknown to most of his countrymen—really, unknown—could... win the presidential nomination of one of our two great political parties. It is even more amazing that this historic news could be overshadowed by the personal drama and spite of the woman who lost to him. I like it that she spent the campaign accusing America of being sexist, of treating her differently because she is a woman, and then, when she lacked the grace to congratulate the victor, she sent her stewards out to tell the press she just needs time, it’s so emotional. In other words, she needs space because she’s a woman."

- Peggy Noonan
