Hillary draws more than 1,000 people, and a pony, to Concord book signing

CONCORD — More than 1,000 Hillary Clinton fans crowded the South Main Street sidewalk in front of Gibson's Bookstore Tuesday morning in a line that snaked around the block and through the store.


They waited patiently in a soft wintry rain, some for hours, to meet the former first lady, U.S. senator, secretary of state and presidential nominee.


Tickets to the event were $30, which included admission to the book signing and a signed copy of "What Happened." The book's cover price is $30, although some large retailers have priced it as low as $17. Most people walked through the line with no book in hand to exchange greetings with Clinton and picked up their signed copy on the way out.


"We've got to keep fighting, don't we," she said to one fan, who expressed disappointment at the outcome of the 2016 presidential race.

And I'll just leave it at that.

But... happier thoughts... doesn't she look great?! She's doing a much better job of accepting things and moving on than I've been able to do. I'm sure that writing her book was cathartic for her. All those times she had to remain silent and NOT call-out the bad behavior of "some people" must have been very difficult for her. So glad that she can speak freely now (even if she's still being diplomatic about it.)

the cockamamie Electoral College, and the people tasked with making sure we never fall victim to a really bad choice among a fooled electorate...
