I never paid attention to Bo Diddley's lyrics; I was simply moved by the rhythms. But the passing of Hillary Clinton's campaign makes them seem quite relevant.

How did Obama's historic win, turn into a story about Clinton's race for the VP? Obama has to stay on message. Clinton isn't change. If your donors are insiders, you're gonna be the same old-same old.

I'm sixty years old. I can't recall a time--ever--that any man who lost a close election demanded "time to adjust to the pain of losing" before conceding. Hillary lost a close one and got a case of the vapors.
