Clinton Makes Reference To Obama Assassination



What in the world is Hillary Clinton trying to say? Yes it is fine to make a reference to Bill Clinton's nomination not being final until June in 1992, but why on earth would she bring up Robert Kennedy's assassination? What was the point?

I think it is clear what she was trying to say. Technically, she's trying to say that she will stay in the race just in case Obama gets assassinated. I don't know what other point she is trying to make. She should know full well how sensitive this issue is, especially when there's an African American and Woman running for president. This is a major gaffe on her part. Or maybe she knew full well what she was saying. But whatever the implication, this has to be one of the dumbest things ever said in American politics.

Given all of the things throughout history which have happened in June, Hellary mentions the assassination of Bobby Kennedy? An unusually close parallel to Obama or wishful thinking or maybe instructions to the wack job racist out there?

"You guys aren't doing your job!"
That's what I hear Hellary saying!
Maybe that's just me, .... we will find out at Barak's wake.
