30. You stated the obvious,
just as Senator Clinton did. But there's no connection with her campaign. None whatsoever.

By the way, her husband had the nomination sewed up long before the California primary, and, back in 1992, primaries were held in different months. The 1984 nominee wasn't decided until June; perhaps Senator Clinton should have made reference to that.

Sorry, your proffered explanation, while kind, is of no value. She simply did something inexcusable and now lacks the integrity to make a proper apology. As for her comment about "holding Robert Kennedy's Senate seat," I wonder if Chuck Schumer - who's been there a lot longer than Senator Clinton - would take exception to that sort of shoddy attempt at an association that's not there.

After all, Ted Kennedy did endorse Obama.

So, thanks for trying, but you might want to check out some recent history, and you'll see why your rationalization, like Senator Clinton's, fails.
