Is this comment a Death Threat from Rove about Hilary? Rove slams 'fatally flawed' Clinton
it's late and I'm tired and haven't taken off my tinfoil hat yet, but at first glance I only focused on the word "fatally"
Is it a veiled threat against Hilary??? A code word?? At this point I don't put anything past this administration...

Rove slams 'fatally flawed' Clinton
Rove sharply criticized Clinton Wednesday.

WASHINGTON (CNN) – He may plan to take a break from presidential politics, but soon-to-be ex-White House aide Karl Rove isn't holding back when it comes to his critique of Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton.

On conservative talk-radio host Rush Limbaugh's show Wednesday, Rove predicted the New York Democrat would win her party's nomination but said she was "fatally flawed" and would ultimately lose the race for the White House.

"There is no frontrunner who has entered the primary season with negatives as high as she has in the history of modern polling," said Rove, who announced Tuesday he was resigning his White House post. (Listen to Rove's comments on Bush, Clinton)

"She is going into the general election, depending on what poll you look at, with high forties on the negative side and just below that on the positive side. There is nobody who has ever won the presidency who has started out in that position," the man also known as "Bush's brain" added. (Related: Clinton happy to give Rove 'heartburn')

2. Good God. So every time someone says someone is "dead in the water" or some other phrase with
death or fatal in it they are making a death threat?

3. If it's not then I would
if i were HRC ask the Secret Service to investigate and see what he meant.Simple as that. That would put those racist, sexist right wingers on notice.....or better yet walk up to old Carl and say, "oink, oink" He is nicknamed Miss Piggy in gay circles in washington according to smirkingchimp
I do thank you

4. common expression
Not exactly popular with the pop-culture crowd, but it's a fairly common expression among folks with liberal arts backgrounds.
