Hillary Clinton was simply making a case for why she is remaining in the race for the nomination.
"During an interview with the editorial board of the Sioux Falls Argus Leader newspaper in South Dakota, Hillary discussed the calls for her to drop out of the race. She said, “My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it.”
That was her comment, pure and simple. Clearly, she was speaking in context about the length of both Bill Clinton and RFk's campaigns. So, I'm curious...how does the press come up with the consensus that she wants Obama assinated? When Mike Huckabee made the comment about Obama "ducking bullets" it did not get played out like this.
Clearly, this is an effort by the media and Obama surrogates (it is getting harder to distinguish which is which) to have her gone and to anoint Obama, the new wonder boy of politics. Obama's supporters and surrogates claim he has all these superdelegates wrapped, so why haven't they, as I have said weeks ago, come out and endorsed him and end this thing? There is one reason: Many superdelegates are not convinced he can win in November, and they are correct to have that concern based on the outcome in key states a Democrat needs to win. Obama can run around out West (New Mexico, Colorado, Nevada, Utah), trying to rewrite the Electoral College Map but that aint going to happen. MCCain is from out West (Arizona) and Westerners are going to take that into consideration when they vote.
Obama is not going to win Florida, Ohio, West Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri so his strategy is to win in Western States. As Hillary's campaign has said, you can rewrite some of the rules...but you can't rewrite all the rules. The man is a walking disaster and will lose the GE but the Democratic Party will rather nominate him and shoot themselves in the foot than give Hillary Clinton the nomination. They simply do not want her to be President.
