Clinton Flip-Flops on Assassination Analogies
Back in January, before the New Hampshire Primary, Senator Clinton was introduced at a campaign event with the following words:
“Some people compare one of the other candidates to John F. Kennedy. But he was assassinated. And Lyndon Baines Johnson was the one who actually” passed the civil rights legislation.
When the press pushed back on that comment, a campaign spokesman said:
“We were not aware that this person was going to make those comments and disapprove of them completely. They were totally inappropriate.”
I guess she was against assassination analogies before she decided to incorporate them into her campaign rhetoric.
Is there nothing that she can’t rationalize?
