There is a big difference between military surrender to a vanquishing conqueror,
and working out a compromise at a political convention.

Despite what you may think, Hillary is not Attila and her supporters the Huns, though some act like it by demanding complete submission and surrender of all values for which we stand.
It doesn't work that way.
