Done: New York MEDIA turns on Hillary Clinton for RFK Assassination Comment
Looks like Hillary Clinton has officially lost her last remnants of support with her RFK Obama assassination statements.
Robert Kennedy is an icon in the northeast, especially in New York, where the Kennedy legacy is romanticized.
Any smart politician (an oxymoron?) would know making statements that
1) Imply that your rival could be assassinated, and you would win by default
2) Uses RFK’s assassination to try and advance your standing
is political suicide.
Hillary has thankfully lost the NY MEDIA’s support now, not to mention any senior citizen down here in Florida who takes offense to those statements. RFK’s senseless deaths ranks right up there with MLK and JFK’s assassinations. Anyone who saw it on TV back then remembers it to this day. Anyone from that era believes he would have won nomination eventually and would have been a better president than John Kennedy. Like I said, invoking RFK’s assassination as a reason for sticking around like a vulture to wait for someone to kill Obama is crazy.
Here is an example of what one newspaper is saying:
“SICK. Disgusting. And yet revealing. Hillary Clinton is staying in the race in the event some nut kills Barack Obama.”

Everybody is Hillary bashing again and I am sick of it!
Shes been through so much turmoil in her life, and everybody is always ganging up on her!
Shes worked so hard and given so much back to this country and the media always hates her.
I am sick of it!
Hillary was just telling the truth!
that she is the best choice for president because somebody might shoot barack obama because we live in a very racist country.
Shes right and I agree with her.
she is the best candidate and everybody is just bashing her again and its only because shes a woman.
If she were a man and said the same thing nobody would be criticizing her.
they never go after Obama on anything and he is still getting a free ride from the media.
I hope Obama loses because it would serve everybody right after the way theve beat up on Hillary, especially the obama supporters.
the media has been so mean and sexist to her, like the way they went after her over the bosnia thing and the way chris mathews made fun of Hillary Clintons pantsuits.
because of that I will never vote for obama.
if she doesn’t win I am going to vote for John McCain.
everybody better just stop bashing her because she deserves to be the next president.
she has earned it with all the things that she has been through.
WE LOVE YOU HILLARY!
Hillary: Why I Continue To Run
This past Friday, during a meeting with a newspaper editorial board, I was asked about whether I was going to continue in the presidential race.
I made clear that I was – and that I thought the urgency to end the 2008 primary process was unprecedented. I pointed out, as I have before, that both my husband’s primary campaign, and Sen. Robert Kennedy’s, had continued into June.
Almost immediately, some took my comments entirely out of context and interpreted them to mean something completely different – and completely unthinkable.
I want to set the record straight: I was making the simple point that given our history, the length of this year’s primary contest is nothing unusual. Both the executive editor of the newspaper where I made the remarks, and Sen. Kennedy’s son, Bobby Kennedy Jr., put out statements confirming that this was the clear meaning of my remarks. Bobby stated, “I understand how highly charged the atmosphere is, but I think it is a mistake for people to take offense.”
I realize that any reference to that traumatic moment for our nation can be deeply painful – particularly for members of the Kennedy family, who have been in my heart and prayers over this past week. And I expressed regret right away for any pain I caused.
But I was deeply dismayed and disturbed that my comment would be construed in a way that flies in the face of everything I stand for – and everything I am fighting for in this election.
