Hillary Supporters: She just gave you an out. Take it.
What she said today was inexcusable. If she had no malignant intent, she is clearly not poised enough to be President. If she meant what it sounded like she meant, she in no Democrat, and no one to be defended.

Take this opportunity to leave her behind. Please, don't try to defend this. It was worse than huckleberry's "joke".

1. She is too out of touch with reality to be Pres. OR Veep.
Please go away, Hillary.

6. I'm starting to really have doubts about who's better
between McLame and Hill. At least with Gramps, we're pretty much only screwed for one term...

3. Hillary needs help.
She needs to seek psychiatric help ASAP. She has officially gone off the deep end.

How sad, really. I mean that. This woman has pissed me off beyond belief, but this latest crap has convinced me that she needs medical help & she needs it now.

I think we just saw the end of her political career.

5. What the hell happened. You know, thank jeebus we got to know her
in this campaign, and she didn't make it to the White House. We'd have been fucked.

14. how would hillary clinton "FUCK" you?
she is a moderate democrat who mostly likely would govern as a moderate democrat. hillary fucked up today...for sure. i can't defend her comments, and i don't think she can.
however, i am sick of all the hyperbole and slander directed at this woman. she didn't become an attorney and a us senator by accident, and she is a democrat.
she would be a far better president than that idiot we have in the white house now, and a far better president than mccain. nothing she has done or said changes that.

25. what we need in a president is someone who is not in the race
what we are likely going to get is another moderate democratic traingulator, i.e., obama.

26. Moderate, yes. Coattails for a New Majority, that will include many Progressives-yes.
And he listens. It is not about Obama. It is about the Progressive/Populist movement.

13. Where have they all gone?
Must be on a damage control conference call, they'll probably be back with some new excuse after they come up with one......
in about 20 years...

15. Imagine the Hillbot horror show if
Obama had said "I want to be Hillary's vice president, because, you know, JFK was assassinated in office."

Oh - my - God. They would be shrieking from the rooftops, and the rest would be banging their walkers on the floor. Instead, they're defending her once more. They are quickly approaching the fate of Bush supporters who must defend one unconscionable thing after another.

17. No sane person could blame you jumping ship after today
You don't even have to jump to Obama, just escape the Hillary asylum.

21. My Girl Did Just Fine
I hope this gets lots and lots of news coverage. I hope the cable channels run it wall-to-wall all weekend, especially the part where they ask her to speculate why there have been calls for her to drop out.
