Hillary Clinton made one point, and one point only, in referencing Robert F. Kennedy's assassination. And that's that the Democratic presidential nomination fight has in times passed stretched up to and through June. She used RFK as an example He was assassinated in June and at the time he was still in the thick of the fight for the nomination. The point again is there's nothing unusual about Democrats fighting for the nomination through June even in the face of a national shock such as the Kennedy assassination.

There is the small chance that the Obama supporters who have been so angry & rightous at Hillary for most of this nomination process will overplay this so much that it bounces back.


HuffingtonPost is right. It is a legitimate point of Hillary's, despite how maligned it is by Obama supporters, including those in the liberal media.


I think it's unlikely at this point,though, that the Democrats will choose Hillary over Obama.

The Dems don't want to risk alienating their most loyal voter-base, black voters, who have voted 90% Democrat in every election since the 1960s.

Nothing short of a total political evisceration could leverage Obama aside.
And I don't see that happening.

Which is good news for McCain, and for the millions who would choose McCain over Obama.
