Hillary Clinton is still in the presidential race, she said today, because "historically, it makes no sense" to quit, and added that, "Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June," making an odd comparison between the dead candidate and Barack Obama.
"People have been trying to push me out since Iowa," she said to the Argus Leader's editorial board.

Well, that's the end of the line for Hillary.
She sounds looney-tunes now.

Weird that she would draw the comparison to Kennedy. Is she trying to foment an attempt by a more than typically unhinged Lib?

At first I thought you were putting up an inapproprieate thread, but when I read it, SHE actually said this! I’m going to have to hear it for myself, but if true, she’s both saying what her and her husband have been thinking all along while at the same time losing her bearings as a credible candidate.

Yep, she’s reminding Obambi of the most important reason not to pick her as VP.

Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June
Imagine the thought processes that led to her saying that!

Rush announced at the end of his show that Hillary had made an offer to drop out of the campaign this afternoon, if Obama would publicly offer her the VP slot, which she would then publicly refuse. The Obama campaign turned her down, saying that they didn’t trust her to say, NO.

It’s actually there in the NY Post. She said this? Out loud? With the press present? As an American, and not a conservative, I would say that Hillary should drop out right now, today, and like granny used to say, “Shame on you!”

So, if Mcpain had a massive heart attack prior to the election, would Ron Paul be our candidate by default because he’s the only other one still in the race?

In 1992 there were a lot of primaries in June (including CA.). This year there are just a couple of small ones. The race is over and Hillary lost.
To: Free ThinkerNY
If a Republican had said that, he would be front-page news for the next two weeks, and would be hounded mercilessly by the MSM until he resigned from office.

A Lib assassin would have to be very unhinged, since it’s the lib end of the democratic party that wants Obama and hates the Clintons. Perhaps she’s hoping for an old-fashioned racist. Or Sirhan Sirhan Sirhan.

I used to think Hillary had no scruples. Now I see she has no brain.

You know what? I’m crying as I’m typing this, and I don’t know why. The state of our politics, the state of our national leaders, the fact that Hillary has finally shown her true colors and should be ushered off the stage right now. I’m a guy, and cry a few tears every once in awhile, but this has affected me like no other thread I’ve read.

I was joking about this with a friend just yesterday and he was thinking the same thing. The Clinton machine is very resourceful. Never underestimate their resources or to what end they will go to retain power.
