She lived a long, happy life of power and privilege, fighting for causes she believed in, like flying the Confederate flag and making as much money as she can, while stifling progress and attacking progressives whenever it was politically convenient. She was a pioneer for women in politics, and she leaves behind a complicated legacy. We can acknowledge her failures and flaws while celebrating her accomplishments, and hope that the next generation of politicans do better.

I hope the next generation of politicians will not cling to power until death. It is a failing in our system that our leaders will not gracefully make room for their successors. If only death can force them to give up power, is it really a peaceful transition?
