Ok, I know this thread will be flooded with unfunny, infantile "jokes," but Rove has brought a serious question. I remember back in the '70s when Romney was declared mentally unfit/damaged for office because he shed some tears.

You need to designate which Romney (or was it that wishy-washy Donk senator from a northeastern state?).

There is snow. There are tears. But brain damage is a terrible thing! Especially, when it is at the hands of LBJ's gubmint!

Her head makes tell-tale rattling noises when she shakes it.

She never fell. She was just avoiding testimony.

Remember Senator Thomas Eagleton (D-MO).

IIRC, he had to withdraw as the Dems’ Veep nominee after it was learned he had electroshock therapy.

As for Hillary, I’m betting she is having Transient Ischemic Attacks, a series of ministrokes. They will affect vision, memory loss, speech, balance, etc.

Remember when the media gleefully declared that Dole was too old to be president when a railing on a temporary podium broke away (no doubt installed by a union carpenter) and he fell?

H*****y will run, and enjoy front runner status just long enough until the REAL chosen one, who will be a younger, more vibrant, and attractive candidate appears out of nowhere and beats her for the nomination.

That was the same thing they did to her in 2008.

The only question is which minority (or minorities) the eventual candidate will represent.

hard to tell with Hillary. Could have been a stroke and more afterwards, or the disappearing act could have been to shut down any discussion of Bengazi until it was ‘old’ news. Can’t see Chelsea crying over the flu, tho.

IIRC, Joe Biden has had two brain surgeries. (I wonder if frontal lobe damage isn't the reason for many of the absurd things that he says.) Detailed medical records, including brain scans were never produced. For reasons that I can't fathom, the Republicans didn't pursue this.

If Hillary requires special glasses (or an aide always on her side) to avoid running into things she is less than 100%. But so is Biden, and so (probably) is Zero -- from his drug use history -- so maybe brain damage is now a requirement to become a successful liberal politician!

I think it's mainly the people around her -- particularly Bill -- as well as the Clinton sycophants in the media, who believe that she's capable of being President. On a good day, she even believes it herself.

[G Larry]

I believe it was a faux-fall, to provide an excuse for Hillary’s unavailability to answer post-Benghazi questions.

But, Rove is correct when he suggests it’s a good way to suggest she’s mentally unfit for office.

(which has always been true)

Could be from bad oysters.
