52. I agree, it was a gaffe. Fortunately, it should sink all talk of her being V.P.
Politicians say really stupid things, they actually do "misspeak", send garbled messages unintentionally, much to their disadvantage. I believe that is just what Hillary has done in this instance.

What bothers me about Hillary is what she has done intentionally for politically reasons.

The obviously political IWR vote.

Her vocal defense of Bush's war.

Her support of cluster bombs.

Her blatant effort to use thinly veiled, "polite" racism as a political tool.

Her utterly groundless cries of "sexism" against all the candidates that ran against her.

Her embrace of Bushlike swaggering "toughness" in foreign policy.

The list could go on for pages.

Hopefully, this attempt to grasp, yet another, last straw, has sunk her hopes to be Vice-president and will go on to sink her political career.
