Quitter Complex Syndrome

APA Diagnostic Statistical Manual (DSM) in it's new edition needs to include a new syndrome: "Quitter Complex Syndrome".

During this primary election-- which is not yet over-- senator Clinton has said so many times that she is not a Quitter that it is difficult to keep track of quitter tab census. Senator Clinton's preoccupation that she is not a quitter is challenging. Senator Clinton has right to continue to compete in election should that be her decision based on probable success, not to prove that she is not a quitter.

Senator Clinton's repetitious over time preoccupation could be read and simply explained as a political bravado oratory addressed to all present and past great leaders who decided not to contest primary election any more and moved on that they were quitters, and that senator Clinton is not. Or, senator Clinton's preoccupation could be something else that should be left to be addressed among herself, her family, and her therapist.

A time to ponder......................
