    Hillary Won't Give That Speech, Either

    Sorry for the delay; I was on the fainting couch, indisposed and hoping I'd remember to tell Chantal that while I appreciate her efforts, overlacing cuts off oxygen to the brain. Judith, John Kerry did give that speech, point for point—until he was hoarse, bless his heart. Yet when the votes were counted—or some of them, anyway, because I, too, have my conspiracy theories—all he had to show for it was a three-point narrowing of the gender gap. And if Hillary sent up that flare right now, the most likely effect would be a narrowing of her lead in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. She won't.
