Latest Clinton Lie-gate: "Obama can't win"
Anyone see Hillary's latest juggling act trying to explain this statement on Hardball?

She said "oh I cannot discuss private conversations." Wha?

Don't remember or cannot honestly tell AMERICA what you are saying to lure superdelegates. Sad.

1. Since it was only "reported" that she said that --
no tape exists (but i haven't checked with the NSA yet), she could have just flat out denied it. But maybe she's gun-shy after having been busted a few times lately by evidence....

2. haha, yes Richardson would have whipped out a tape of her saying it
It looked really bad to see her tap dancing around it and supports this narrative that she is dishonest and a snake. SHE cannot win in November with that type of background. Why is it so hard for her to just tell the truth.

3. outright denials are tricky these days
all it takes is one guy with a cell phone camera to turn her into a liar.

4. Is that something like ...
... "not commenting on an ongoing investigation"?

5. Good Lord. If the great and magical Obama had said those same words
the flock here would be wiping tears from their faces as they ranted about his eloquence and how well he handled the situation.

6. But you got to admit that it's pretty unlikely that Obama goes around
telling people in private that he can't win!

9. Why couldn't she just answer the question and say whether or not he's electable?

10. That's not a lie, that's an opinion
Surely in the US of A we're still allowed to have these? Or is the US under Obama going to be more like, say, Saudi Arabia?
