An armed man, possibly with a bomb, has taken people hostage at Hillary Clinton's campaign office in Rochester, N.H.
Clinton was not in New Hampshire Friday. She was scheduled to give an address at the Democratic National Committee meeting in Vienna, Va., Friday afternoon, but DNC Chairman Howard Dean announced from the podium that Clinton would not speak. New York TV station WNBC reported that the suspect has demanded to speak to her.
Police said a man in his 40s, with salt-and-pepper hair, is in the building and has what appears to be an explosive device strapped to his body, TV station WMUR reported.

He was planted.
How many people think this was a Hillary stunt?
I’m telling you, I heard a story like this before. I remember the mention of Edwards and Obama’s offices being nearby. Researching.
1) War Vet
2)Anti-abortionist
3) FILL IN THE BLANK.
Good one, Hill. Be sure you’re out of harm’s way and then send in someone to help you with the sympathy vote. Nothing happens in a Clinton office without them having orchestrated it. I’m not buyin’ it.
They should call in the sharpshooters and blow his miserable terrorist head off. Much as I detest Hillary, this is NOT how we handle political differences in this country.
Even if it wasn’t a plant, it says a lot about her that we would even consider the possility.

Think before you say that!!! The Clintons already have enough dead people that have worked for them! This would be only adding one more name to the list!!
That's all we need is another such opportunity for them.
Demagoguery is all they have.
When all is said and done, it will have been determined to have been a Clinton operative. As a previous poster noted, everything is orchestrated by the Clinton campaign.

No, they should try to understand why he wanted to do this and how the Bush Administration pushed him to do it.
Quickly form a blue ribbon to find which member of the presidents drove him to attack hillary and bring impeachment charges against Dick Cheney and Chimpy McBush.
Suspect is reportedly known to local authorities due to some sort of past incident, according to news reports, has a record of emotional instability.
Unlikely. Hard to find a plant willing to spend the rest of his life in a federal prison or get shot. There isn't really a 3rd scenerio for this fellow.
Even if it wasn’t a plant, it says a lot about her that we would even consider the possility.
Oh we already think it’s a plant. That is what I first thought when I heard it on the radio. Esp. when they said she was not there when it happened. I thought “oh yea right” and here is am driving around in a car with a Hillary bumper sticker that reads: “Hillary ‘08 Give Terrorism A Chance”
Great going Hillary, you just proved me right!!!!
may I be the first to say...
Bush’s Fault!
Medved is reporting on it now
Fox interviewee says it’s someone named “Troy Stanley”.
He’s stealing the “H”s of the keyboards
The man went to a local hardware store earlier in the day today, to purchase the materials for the “bomb” duct taped to his chest, according to another new report.
Sounds like law enforcement is leaning heavily toward hoax, but the man reportedly still holds at least one hostage, so they’re being very cautious.
(Raises hand). Notice how when things get hot for the Dems in the news(ala dem plants in CNN debate), that within 1-3 days something else conveniently hits the airwaves to take the press away?
Hillary’s trying to garner sympathy. All hostages were released quickly and I bet he gives himself up without a shot. Then they’ll ask Hillary about her staff and she’ll gush about their courage and laugh in faux relief.
It's very easy. Find someone who's going to prison anyway, and promise them a pardon when you get in, or early parole from one of your fellow-travelling Judges if you don't. With the added plus that pardoning an "assassin" would make Hilliary look like Pope JPII.
Here, here, pick me! I think it's a Hillary stunt.
Not a plant..just a nut looking for his 15 minutes.
If this is one is actually working for the Clintons (which I doubt, but you never know . . . ) he should still have his head blown off. A terrorist is a terrorist, and I don’t really care who or what their “cause” is. They should be killed and tossed in the nearest landfill without further ado. Bothering to investigate what their “cause” is plays into their hands, encouraging more terrorism by garnering publicity for the evil “causes” of all who use terrorism as a political or religious tactic. As far as I’m concerned, if you commit terrorism, then that’s your cause, and you should be terminated, period.
“Suspect is reportedly known to local authorities due to some sort of past incident, according to news reports, has a record of emotional instability.”
I can see why he picked the DEM HQ of Hillary. Must have made him feel right at home.
Don’t know if it’s same guy. FOX interviewed an acquaintance who said Mr. Stanley claimed a device had been planted in his head by the government to control his thoughts.
He is probably a Democrat pretending he is a Republican. Happened about five times just the other night at the debates.
.....Troy Stanley.....
Not Stanley Yelnats, whose great grandfather was a dirty rotten pig stealer
That was pretty funny.
One of the Code Pink marines or one of the gay generals?
Plant gone bad?

Is he a Paulite Libertarian? Free Stater?
What name are they giving?
Troy Stanley or Stanley Burt?
“Stanley claimed a device had been planted in his head by the government to control his thoughts.”
That confirms it, he’s a Democrat.
Good match!
Sounds like this guy was just a local kook with “road flares”, not explosives. Still never doubt a hitlery setup! Will undoubtly assist the H-beast.
When you want the lowdown, go to Huffington Post (cough)... gee, they really found this fast, even the voice mail recording details... If I didn’t know Huffington loathed Hillary, i’d think... nevermind.
Good work over there guys.

“How many people think this was a Hillary stunt?”
Are you being serious? Think it through. Who would be willing to go to jail for years in order to help their candidate with a bit of publicity. Moreover, who would be dumb enough to believe said person wouldn’t blab about the scheme when facing 10 years in prison?
All I could find on him was a car accident in July of 2006... he was hurt as a passenger.

He was arrested twice this summer for Disorderly Conduct and Criminal Trespass.
The one on the right looks more reasonable.
