They risk turning her into a sympathetic figure. How long can you pick on someone when they're physically having a bad day? When they're under the weather?

I noticed in the coverage today lots of context.
1) there were reminders that the weather's been brutal, high temperatures, hot direct sun, unbearable humidity. From what I saw, she was in the full sun, no shade, during the 9/11 event today. For an hour and a half. Alex Witt and Kristen Welker on MSNBC were talking about it this morning.
2) Alex Witt mentioned she walked to work in a tank top and shorts because THAT was what you wore outside in such sticky heat, in contrast to her on-camera outfit that covered up far more skin. They noted that Hillary wore a dark long-sleeved jacket and pants, with speculation that her blouse was long-sleeved, too - an outfit clearly not made of some lightweight breezy fabric, either. They even noted almost apologetically that they "don't often cover fashion," but that it was worth mentioning, here.
3) and after the doctor's statement came out, and it turned into "she had pneumonia," um - then it becomes something you really ought to leave alone and not spin to your advantage. But when has The Donald ever spent much time showing restraint - OR compassion?

But I think that sounds about right.

been there, done that. I've had to go to work sick, because all my sick leave went to take care of my kids when they were sick, and then to take care of my Mom. We women know how to soldier on. Hillary will have the understanding and sympathy of most women.

Yet again, they seem tone deaf and incapable of just telling the truth. No, it has to drip, drip, drip out. What, is her pneumonia some state secret? Had they simply said so early when they knew, there would be no problem, in fact, a lot of sympathy for her. Instead, the campaign manage to make the piss poor handling of this mess the story. Again.

Who is in charge of her campaign? They keep doing a really lousy job. She should be up by 15 points, not 3.5.

This campaign was hers to lose. She still may. Damn, this is fustrating.

People get sick. Campaigns are grueling. It happens.

I think you're on to something.

They say she got a lot of traction after he 'humanizing moment' in 2008 when she kinda broke down just a touch (or whatever).

I just hope she gets over this quick and stays strong until Nov. 8. Trump is not allowed to be my president.
