- The truth of the matter is, what she was saying was that you can never know what can happen, alluding to the fact that something similar to what happened to Bobby Kennedy can happen to Obama and that someone had to remain in the race to pick up the mantle. That is the only TRUTH.

No, that is NOT the truth. The proof of my statement is that IF (god forbid) something did happen to Obama, she could still "pick up the mantle" whether or not she had formally stayed in the race.
Therefore, she CANNOT be staying in the race BECAUSE harm might befall Obama. She neither said that nor implied that. The idea is nonsensical. - Reply to this comment

SEXISM IN ACTION
One of her main supporters, James Carville , inferred she has "cojones.%u201D She did not complain then. She compared herself to Rocky Balboa, she found nothing wrong with that;. She called herself Paulette Revere; nothing wrong with that. When one of her own supporters referred to her %u201Ctesticular fortitude, she didn%u2018t complain then.%u201D At a speech she gave a Wellesley College she boasted of %u201Cbeing used to taking on the boys.%u201C
SEEMS SHE PROTESTS TOO MUCH. - Reply to this comment
- Never has so much been made over so little. And never have so many read more into a statement than have over Hillary''s. If this isn''t sexism in action than I don''t know what it would be called. Everything Hillary Clinton does or says is ripped apart for a hidden evil meaning while Senator Obama goes tip toeing through the tulips.

You are as silly as Hillary. When asked to name one incident of dirty politics by Obama in this nominating process, you came up with nothing. You''re a joke - get a life. - Reply to this comment
- that *** was a blocked reference to an obscene gesture, often called the middle finger salute, by the way.

- What the Obama honkers don''''''''t want to acknowledge is that Bobby Kennedy was still in second place going into the California primary. He was 200 delegates behind...and NOBODY WAS CALLING FOR BOBBY KENNEDY TO STEP ASIDE! NONE! NOBODY!
And yet the Obama honkers have been screaming for months for Hillary to step down!
You see what I mean by his intimidation shill games?

That''''s EXACTLY why they jumped on Hillary Clinton''''s words and tried to spin it into a death wish for Obama!
Because they knew if she ever brought up the fact that NOBODY! NONE! ZIP! ZILCH! was calling for Bobby Kennedy to step down, it would show the DNC for the fools they''''ve been in this primary season!

- I can''''t understand why the Clintons and their supporters lament that everyone, most importantly the media, were trying to push Hillary out of the race. Are they? Definitely not. This is another typical Clinton spin to delude everyone away from truth. Obama or his campaign staff are never on record as saying the Hillary should quit. On the contrary, Obama had praised her resilience and had said she should finish the race. That is the obvious truth. But then, truth is something so enigma to the Clintons. Hillary now says her reference to RFK''''s assassination was actually in the context of the duration of the primary race. Is it or is it another attempt to pull wool over the eye? In 1968 and 1992 the primary season began in March. This time around it began way back in January. So, where is the relevance? The truth of the matter is, what she was saying was that you can never know what can happen, alluding to the fact that something similar to what happened to Bobby Kennedy can happen to Obama and that someone had to remain in the race to pick up the mantle. That is the only TRUTH. Period.
