Who was Clinton comparing with Robert Kennedy?

[shomino]

It seems to me Clinton was comparing herself with Kennedy, rather than Obama.

Although it's macabre to bring up assassination at all in the current situation, I think it's more of an attempt to identify with the Kennedy family in light of the current tragic events with Ted Kennedy's brain tumor (Our hearts go out to the Kennedy family).

In any case, I do believe there is a slight amount of over-reaction from the Obama camp. Assassination is a very real danger for many high-profile American government officials, regardless of race, gender or creed.

I support Barack Obama, but there is no question in my mind that Hillary Clinton was in no way attempting to "encourage" assassination attempts of any kind. She may be an egomaniac, but she's not a murderer.

She's just desperately playing any card she can at this point. It's gonna be great fodder for SNL skits to come... can't wait. ;) LOL!
