Politics: Hillary Clinton's gaffes on Pakistan's elections expose one of the most persistent myths of the election sweepstakes: that the former first lady is "experienced" and ready to "hit the ground running" as president.
In fact, the upcoming elections in the country are for the next parliament; Musharraf was re-elected president for another five-year term in October.
That might be forgiven as a momentary lapse, except that last Sunday, speaking to ABC, Hillary did it again — more explicitly — contending that Musharraf "could be the only person on the ballot."
Of course, neither CNN's Wolf Blitzer nor ABC's George Stephanopoulos jumped on this while interviewing her. Nor did anyone in the establishment media mention the gaffe in the following days.
It took Thomas Houlahan, former Army officer and director of the Military Assessment Program at the Center for Security and Science at James Madison University, writing in the Middle East Times, to point it out.

Bhutto Died, Hillary Lied.
I believe the MSM are well aware of Hillary’s lack of mental acumen and will cover for her endlessly. The amount of misinformation about Hillary published by the MSM over the years is finally being exposed. The MSM is not worthy of their constitutional guarantees and should be hung for treason and sedition starting with Walter Cronkite.
And he husband regrets the tragic loss that came before he had a chance to nail her..
How can the Anti-Christ be so clueless? Isn’t there a briefing in Hell or something?
No thank you
She was also wrong about Bhutto having 2 kids (she has 3) and her father being assassinated also (he was hung).
She also is getting a pass for accusing / suggesting the military might of killed Bhutto, that’s not something a president should do off the cuff.. It might be true and proven, but not very presidential.
Edwards calling Mushariff was also weird.
"Snort"
Despite the decades long misinformation campaign, it's obvious Hillary just isn't that bright.
No, it wasn't weird, it was beyond arrogrant and political pandering taken to a new and nauseating level.
Musharraf is a sitting President of an allied country.
Edwards is a former Senator from one of 50 states, virtually no role in current US Government affairs or never elected or appointed to an federal position.
Oh' yeah, he ran for Vice President once with an ass clown.
He certainly has a right to make a statement about the Pakistan problems, but to call the sitting President to offer advice is beyond the pale when he virtually has no power to to represent the US government beyond his own narcissistic fantasies.
This woman is a grifter - who with her husband - is trying to set the gold standard of ‘grifterism’. That these druts could possibly attain the US presidency twice would send a message to the world that US voters are as ignorant and gullible as an illiterate Ethiopian Lance Corporal.
Semper Fi,
bttt
Seems appropriate.
"Is the whole image of Hillary Clinton as the sharpest, brainiest Democrat in the field really just a carefully crafted fairy tale?"

Is the correct answer, uh no?
In addition she HIldabeast..thinks that Musharaf(sp) is on the ballot..he is not.
I thought I read where Hillary got the number of Benazir Bhutto’s children wrong as well.
No, I thought the conventional wisdom on Obama is that he has less experience...
[insert that caustic laugh of hers here]
And she’ll tell you so herself. After all, “you know what” she “stands for.” She keeps telling us that we know, but she’s never told us WHAT we’re supposed to know that she knows.
