One Word: Ghoulish
Michael Goodwin of the Daily News sums up Hillary's ghoulish gaffe nicely:
SICK. Disgusting. And yet revealing. Hillary Clinton is staying in the race in the event some nut kills Barack Obama. It could happen, but what definitely has happened is that Clinton has killed her own chances of being vice president. She doesn't deserve to be elected dog catcher anywhere now. ... We have seen an X-ray of a very dark soul. One consumed by raw ambition to where the possible assassination of an opponent is something to ponder in a strategic way. Otherwise, why is murder on her mind?Go away Hillary. Go away.

Every time something is reported that you don't like, doesn't automatically make the MSM the bad guy, as Alex seems to infer.
Why on earth would Hillary bring up Bobby Kennedy? And WHY are so many even talking about killing Obama? (Fox News, Hillary, O'reilly, RWM, Rove, KKK, etc)
She showed us who she is. Some will refuse to accept the truth. Others see through the BS regardless of whose ideology it aligns with. See the Bushies for historical context.
It is Hillary that is the embarrassing disgrace. She lost her bid in FEBRUARY for crying out loud! Go Away NOW.

WTF is wrong with you and the MSM. Hillary did not say anything to that effect. This kind of public frenzy about a non-story is an embarrassment to political discourse in this election cycle!

The Daily News is one of the worst publications around. Do yourself a favor and don't refer to it for political commentary, ever--EVER.

Clinton's gaffe may have been the dumbest thing she has done all campaign but thats not a good reason to link to the awful shock journalism of the Daily News. Was what she said was unfortunate, but we don't need these moral high ground claims about her dark soul. She's human, fallible and somewhat corrupted by her frustrations, not an evil bitch. Should she be the nominee, I don't think so, but I think if anything this comment has been an inglorious end to a campaign with promise that took many unfortunate turns. It's still not good occasion for the cowardly vitriol of a publication like the daily news, come on blog people, you're better than that.

WTF is wrong with her? Clinton 2008 has effectively killed the legacy of the Clinton presidency. This is yet another of the final nails in the coffin of a once great name.
What a f*cking c*nt!
Maybe the Republicans were right all along about her. (I can't believe I just said that)

Be intellectually honest, Mister Free Willy. Jonathan Schwarz sums it up nicely here:
