It's just that she isn't going to win the nomination. She will get over not getting her crown within a matter of weeks maybe days as she starts counting her money from speaking fees.

Poetry, Platitudes, and Polls are being exposed for what they are, a way to avoid talking about what she'll do, until it's OK'd by popular consent, but her history shows .
