Facing down the New York Times editorial board on a single, very specific, issue, and not blinking, would be an impressive feat. It would be an epic effort to sell that decision, but it would go down in history if she, her campaign, and her advocates, proved up to the task.

I'm truly curious as to the options open to Secretary Clinton.

P.S. Will the Republican begin snickering over this, starting in tonight's debate? Not many people read the opinions of The New York Times.
