Hillary Clinton falling ill at a memorial service on the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks Sunday morning will catapult questions about her health from the ranks of conservative conspiracy theory to perhaps the central debate in the presidential race over the coming days.
"Secretary Clinton attended the September 11th Commemoration Ceremony for just an hour and thirty minutes this morning to pay her respects and greet some of the families of the fallen," spokesman Nick Merrill said. "During the ceremony, she felt overheated, so departed to go to her daughter's apartment and is feeling much better."
What that statement leaves out is that a) it came 90 minutes after Clinton left the ceremony b) reporters -- or even a reporter -- were not allowed to follow her and c) the temperature in New York City at the time of Clinton's overheating was in the low 80s. (A heat wave over the eastern United States broke last night/this morning.)
Whether Clinton likes it or not, her "overheating" comes at a very bad time for her campaign. Thanks to the likes of Rudy Giuliani and a small but vocal element of the Republican base, talk of Clinton's health had been bubbling over the past week -- triggered by a coughing episode she experienced during a Labor Day rally.
That talk was largely confined to Republicans convinced that Clinton has long been hiding some sort of serious illness. I wrote dismissively of that conspiracy theory in this space last week, noting that Clinton had been given an entirely clean bill of health by her doctors after an episode in which she fainted, suffered a concussion and then a blood clot in late 2012 and early 2013.

Yeah, you did, didn't you, Cillizza, you MSM douche bag. Had you had the smallest, weakest thread of honor, and enough bravery to stand up to the MSM herd, you could have distinguished yourself by noting her illness. But you couldn't do that. You were "just following orders", going along to get along with the rest of the liberal school of journalist fish.
Trump is going to become our next President.
You can take that to bank.
Hillary’s lies, insults and poor health are breaking the dam.
Even the MSM is beginning to recognize they just can’t keep on pretending she doesn’t have real problems.
The American people are not that stupid.
They elected Zero twice!
Looks like a seizure. If this were Trump it would be all over the Sunday morning news shows
Neither of the Republican candidates got people interested enough to even look at them.
Trump is in a completely different league.
We might be wise to keep track of the team that takes care of Lenin. If that team shows up in NY, we’ll know for sure there is something going on.
I want Trump running against this BITCH, Trumps WHOLE campaign IS AGAINST HER!!! If she is forced to drop out WE could be in trouble!!!
Death Becomes Her.
What do I win?
Bullsh!t.
It's been triggered by a number of medical events over the last several years, along with Clinton's own admission to the FBI that she had no memory of important information related to their investigation because of her post-concussion symptoms.
Game over. Dems and media will come unglued. Popcorn.
Hellary could have felt overheated but prolly not from the ‘weather’. There could be associated hot and/or cold spells with episodes of syncope. She doesn’t look very responsive when getting into the van. Not only did she wobble but her head never turned either.
this from a poster on another site:
“Hillary probably overheated from all the hot sauce in her purse. Went to Chelsea’s apartment to open a pickle jar. Everything’s fine folks, nothing to see here.” LOL
Or maybe Huma was getting feisty this morning...
She probably just got downgraded from "Doubtful" to "Out" for any further campaign appearances this week.
Not denying that. However the only two past facts we have are 2008 & 2012. Those two election shook my faith in my fellow citizens to my internal core! McCain & Romney were both fools but they were not enemies of the country. (I know some people on this site go to extreme hyperbole in venting their spleens at Romney & McCain, claiming that they are worse or at least the same as Zero. They’re not! Please don’t waste bandwidth trying to convince me otherwise.) Neither of them were ever in my top 3 or 5 of GOP candidates. Bottom of the barrel where the best you could say is, ‘They’re not Rats!”
Until election day everything else is a supposition! Which I am guilty of doing just like every else is
The photo below was from her press conference on Friday night. This looks like someone who walked out of a nursing home to make a public appearance, folks.
Death Becomes Her! Great movie and perfect analogy!
Hillary is benched for the next week or so.
Scott Adams of Dilbert comic fame today blogged she’s probably benched for good.
Biden has not been seen too much lately.
Drinking hard would be my guess.
