What is wrong with Senator Clinton?

[speedingpullet]

I know she’s brought down a TON of ire on the blogs about this soundbite. Lots of people calling for her to step down and/or keep taking the meds…

Even though I’m an Obama supporter, I think she simply misspoke. They both look dog-tired at this point. She could have been a bit more gracious about her ‘apology’ – especially as she seems to have missed the point about her inference re: Obama/assassination by concentrating instead on just saying sorry to the Kennedys.
Still, the Obama camp seem to be leaving it alone, so if they’re not worried, neither am I. I certainly don’t think she needs some of the things described (in detail) that I’ve read on the likes of Huffpost…

Bad luck too, on it running all over the Memorial Day weekend.

She’ll drag this on until the bitter end – that being around midnight of June 3rd. I think she’s thoroughly scuppered her chances, if she ever had any, of getting the VP slot, and I hope for her sake that she doesn’t suffer from another ‘foot-in-mouth’ moment before the inevitable conclusion of this bunfight.

I’d never vote for her if she was the nominee, and I’d have to think long and hard about withholding my vote, should she be chosen as Obama’s VP, but I think its best just to wait this out – she will eventually have to step down, and there’s nothing anyone (besides herself) that can do to dissuade or coerce her into doing it sooner.

I lived in London during Bill Clinton’s presidency, so only have a filtered – but largely favourable – memory of his time in office. But this whole campaign has lowered my estimation of them greatly. I know that alls fair in love and politics, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen two people so power-hungry (and obvious about it) in my life.

Roll on november, and lets hope this fiasco doesn’t drag on until the DNC.

This country is having trouble electing a 72 year old white guy or a 47 year old half-black guy. I seriously doubt that they would even consider a 65 year old white woman in 2012.

This is perfect Hillarylogic:

(1) A miracle at the DNC can give me the nomination. Right?
(2) What if Obama gets assassinated?

Unless you can prove with 100.00% uncertainty that neither (1) nor (2) can happen, I stay in the race.

Screw the party. Screw the nation. I want to win, and anybody asking me step down is a misoginist!!!

Am I the only one that thinks this campaign has driven her off the deep end? I swear she seems increasingly mentally unstable as this thing goes on. This comment is just more of the same crap she’s been spewing over the past couple months.

I honestly feel bad for her. Its like she’s having a mental breakdown with all the cameras on her. Could you imagine having your mental breakdown broadcast 24/7 for all the world to see?

I compare it to finals week in college – I remember being a fucking zombie during finals. It felt like my brain had melted and I was simply a walking mass of flesh and bone. But finals were ever only one week long. Imagine a year and a half of finals weeks! Ouch. I’d be a psychopath after this too. Obama, meanwhile, has stayed cool, calm, and collected throughout this whole thing. Even with all the Wright and bitter dustups, he keeps on chugging, getting more presidential as time goes on. That, to me, is the sign of a good candidate. The one who went off the deep end? Not so much.
