Poor Hill. She really had a bad week.

First she loses Michigan - a state that she had been given a 99% chance of winning & then had to watch her opponent be dragged out of bed to hold a very impromptu press conference because he was getting ready to pull one of the greatest political upsets.

If that wasn't bad enough, the very next night they had a debate and after the debate was over, a large portion of the audience stood up and gave her opponent a standing Ovation while cheering "Feel the Bern".

Next she goes on the Must Shill Nonstop 'Bout Clinton network and makes a statement about the passing of Nancy Reagan, and in doing so "misspeaks" about the Reagan's commitment to Aids & stem-cell research.

Then she goes into a coffee shop run by a woman, tweets about it with a photo & how inspiring it was to go into a small business run by a woman - only to be replied to on twitter by the very woman who owns that coffee shop telling her that she is a Bernie supporter and to take that picture down.

She then makes a snarky comment about her opponent asking where he was when she was fighting for healthcare, only to be met with a photo of her opponent standing with her on stage in 1993 in solidarity with her plan for healthcare, and a note also surfaces that she had handwritten to her opponent thanking him for his support in fighting for her healthcare plan.

Next, supporters of her opponent take down a Trump rally in a town she is supposed to win because they will not let Trump's hatred invade their neighborhood.

And today, the msm reported non-stop about Trump vs Bernie. They even cut away from her rally to discuss Trump vs Bernie.

Then twitter erupts and #HistorybyHillary is trending all day long.

Sigh.....

and given to what lengths she will go to damage Bernie I have no sympathy for her. It's kinda karmic, don't you think? What comes around.....

Some of it is black humor, but still. She really has had a back week, and I hope it continues and only gets worse.

But is seems like SS Hillary is taking on water all over. They're bailing like there's no tomorrow, but their capt. keeps running them into random objects.

I just don't understand why she is running such a sloppy campaign.

The weather here (NC) has been great, there was a short-notice rally on Friday -- and another one on Monday, so next week is shaping up to be quite wonderful as well.

Keep on keepin' on, Hillary. That toast is nearly done.
