The thoughts had already been going through my mind about the increased risk to Obama's life if Hillary was the VP.

Why did she say it? She is an intelligent calculated person.

Scary skeletons in Clinton's closet. The Clintons have powerful connections. No charges are being made:

Kathy Ferguson was a possible corroborating witness for Paula Jones.

Many linked to the case died before their testimony could come before a Grand Jury.

Clinton would be in greater danger if Obama was the VP. after all assassins tend to be radical muslims.

Another example why this race should be over.....the Clintons' mouths always trip them up..

Hillary just can't stop reminding people that she jumped the shark long ago.

The woman just can't help herself.

ABSOLUTELY REPULSIVE.

It is inconceivable that she would not be aware of the implications of a statement like this. The issue of Obama's safety has been widely discussed and pondered, and for her to make a comment like that, and use the notion of his possible assassination as a justification for her to stay in the race, is just beyond reprehensible.

I'm shocked right now. Shocked.

Will she have Obama assassinated? Does she have that type of power?

This is scary.

If she becomes the VP, obama will be dead by inauguration day

We don't need another president who is totally out of touch with reality. I can't believe anyone is voting for her!!

OMG. Unbelievable. Disgusting. Scary.

My God, has this woman completely lost her mind!

Hillary is qualified to be pesident; Obama is not.

Historical curiosity that she's getting pressured? Oh REALLY?

Did she miss all of the stories in re Huckabee remaining for quite a while after McCain had sewn up the nomination?

And I don't seem to recall there being an issue in 1980--the Democrats had an incumbent president while the Republicans united relatively early behind Reagan based on his strong showing in the 76 nomination process.

...then again history, as well as how the constitution operates, has not been a Clinton strong suit.

Kay: This story was posted at 4:25pm and 6 minutes later you had a list of 26 slanderous allegations to post? Smells fishy to me, smells like organized smear, smells like an Obama blogger just waiting to pounce.

As for the story, tying this comment to Obama-and-assassination is character assassination of the worst sort. Stop being ridiculous about Clinton, she was just talking about primaries that go on through June. It's a shameful the way most everyone in the media hates her.

Is this real? This woman is....I don't know what to say. The DNC....What! This is unbelievable. END THIS NOW!

I am tired of the sissy comments of Barack's staff, anything anybody says is either racist or inapropriate or unacceptable. What kind of idiot is this?? Barack please cry a litle more... since we have not heard you cry all the time...

Hillary is our president!!

The media is taking Hillary Clinton's comments way out of context. She's just saying that it's not odd for primary races to last into June.

She is a PIG!

A lowlife disgusting PIG!

What in the hell is wrong with her?

democratforMccain: You are no Democrat, pal. Crawl back under your slimy rock.

democratforMcCain - I agree that people die every day, but come on, many of these people died of gun shot wounds and some were murdered. How many people close to you do you know that fit into that category?
