My full post below....

Hillary invoked Bobby Kennedy’s assassination defending her decision not to drop out of the race. However, to be honest, I don't think Hillary holds a sadistic view of possible Obama assassination as her pathway to presidential nomination.

I'm not her supporter and but let’s admit it’s a gaffe, a misstatement, a poor and distasteful historical analogy. Hillary and supporters were at the ugliest self exploiting Obama’s “bitter” gaffe and unfortunately her shameless exploitation showed some affect at the polls.

It’s time for us to be a bigger person.

Feel free to point out the reckless disregard in her follow-up “non-apology” statement. She expressed regret towards the Kennedys but blatantly ignored the fact that her statement also had ill-references toward Obama. That’s very disappointing.

Don’t accuse Hillary of maliciousness. Please don’t.

This new episode is further evidence the democratic primary process should end for all the infighting to end. It’s hurting everyone.

Anyway, bottom line, take the high road.

If we take the high road Hillary's supporters accuse of being weak. If we answer tit for tat they say, where's the change? You're just as dirty as anyone else.

I was phonebanking for a local Dem house challenger here in IL this week. We were calling first time Dem voters in the IL primary to see if they'd come over to our side, fell in love with Obama or Hillary, or thought now they had a momentary lapse of sanity and were leaning Repub again.

I got a woman on the phone and she wanted to know who my guy supported, Hillary or Barack. I wasn't gonna lie to her and this being Illinois I figured I was safe anyway. I told her his campaign organized and caravaned over 30 volunteers to IN the Saturday before their primary to canvass for Barack.

She immediately soured. Told me she didn't think she and her husband were interested. They are big Hillary supporters. I told her our field organizer worked for Hillary in IA and MN, we have all kinds here. Our candidate isn't the Obama candidate, or the Hillary candidate, he's the DEMOCRATIC candidate.

You're right kash, but it's tough. We all ought to take our lead from Barack. The guy has more self restraint than Jackie Robinson. This will all be over in a few weeks and I for one will be happy when I'm not fending off other Dems with one hand tied behind my back, holding my tongue and can go after McCain unencumbered.

If you watch the entire interview video on the Argus website, the most notable thing about her is how tired she looks. She gets all the answers right- (except the RFK reference, but even that is excusable if you consider that it had been used several times before as acceptable "shorthand" (because it was so long ago and we all know he was shot while campaigning hard in CA.)

Teddy's recent shocking news has made the comment embarrassing. (Because his death is felt as imminent with his horrible recent diagnosis of a nasty malignant brain tumor). We are reminded again of the sharp pain of both JFK and RFK, and the other monumentally-excruciating 1968 assassination of MLK.

I never got the assassination thing that people speak about with black presidential candidates. Colin Powell said that is why Alma wouldn't let him run. i trust our secret service to keep any presidential candidate, or president safe

Please, I appeal to your better selves, don't ascribe this kind of thinking to what Hillary said. It is wrong on so many levels.

What she said was stupid. She's said it before too. It shows a strange focus with RFK's assassination. Yet, she failed to acknowledge that her Democratic opponent may be an object of same violence as may she be such an object. She's tired. I hope she withdraws soon. She's exhausted and heart-broken. All the more reason to give her room to leave gracefully.

Thanks for this thread, Kash79.

I was angry yesterday. Today, not so much. Today, it's just another thingy gaffe she made. I'm glad Obama has not used this against her. The primaries will be over soon.

Thanks Kash.

This pretty much echoes my thinking, except that I feel angry because this has taken the heat off McCain at a time when he was getting attention for the Hagee stuff.

As an Obama supporter, I don't mind having Clinton still in the race so long as we use the fact that there are two major Democrats on a national stage to good effect - the best way of doing that is by teaming up on McCain and talking about a Democratic Victory in November.

This assassination gaffe was just a dumbass comment, and whether or not it reveals any dark Clinton strategy, I don't really care - since she's not going to get the nomination, she's not going to be VP, so I'm only really interested in her if she's saying bad things about McCain. Anything else is just yet another boring gaffe-sideshow: probably the ABC political team are salivating right now...
