Clinton Puts Foot In Mouth, Again
RFK Jr., a Clinton supporter, defends Clinton from criticism arising from her latest -- reference to the assassination of RFK in June to justify her continuing. Bad comparison anyway (he had a realistic chance), but sounds bad too. I thought, unlike that amateur Obama (see TalkLeft, ad nauseam), she knew how to play the game? Anyway, I actually take RFK's point ... it is not like comparing not seating Florida with a corrupt African dictator. But, it still is in bad form. BTW, on the VP front, people do know for the sake of balancing the ticket etc. she is a bad choice, right? "Stupid" might be more like it.
