This is what should be known by now as a "John Kerry moment"

This sequence of words will be part of this campaign for as long as shes in it.

Makes you wonder how Russert kept from falling on the floor laughing his ass off. And she's the Democrats front runner? Yikes!:madlaugh:

I'm not sure this was quite a "Dean" moment. But it's close.
I think her illegal fundraising activities along with her inability to deal with pointed questions is a real worry to to the Dems.
Bill has the skillz to pay the bills.
Hillary is now distributing IOUs[hr]Peggy Noonan makes this Priceless observation...The story isn't that the Democrats finally took on Hillary Clinton. Nor is it that they were gentlemanly to the point of gingerly and tentative. There was an air of "Please, somebody kill her for me so I can jump in and show high minded compassion at her plight!" She goes on in her imitable style...
Giving illegal immigrants drivers licenses makes sense because it makes sense, but she may not be for it, but undocumented workers should come out of the shadows, and it makes sense. Maybe she will increase the payroll tax on Social Security beyond its current $97,500 limit, to $200,000. Maybe not. Everybody knows what the possibilities are. She may or may not back a 4% federal surcharge on singles making $150,000 a year and couples making $200,000. She suggested she backed it, said she didn't back it, she then called it a good start, or rather "I support and admire" the person proposing such a tax for his "willingness to take this on."

She has been accused of doubletalk and she has denied it. And she is right. It was triple talk, quadruple talk, Olympic level nonresponsiveness. And it was, even for her, rather heavy and smug. Her husband would have had the sense to look embarrassed as he bobbed and weaved. It was part of his charm. But he was light on his feet. She turns every dance into the polka. And it is that amazing thing, a grim polka. http://www.opinionjournal.com/columnists/pnoonan/
Noonan is a gem!
