A Sad and Pathetic Spectacle...

This is the latest chapter in what is fast becoming a heartbreakingly pathetic, desperate and ridiculous saga.
Hillary Clinton today brought up the assassination of Sen. Robert Kennedy while defending her decision to stay in the race against Barack Obama.

"My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it," she said, dismissing calls to drop out.

Clinton made her comments at a meeting with the Sioux Falls Argus-Leader's editorial board while campaigning in South Dakota, where she complained that, "People have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa.
Bringing up the nightmare of 1968 is a matter of context, and I'm afraid that there's a candidate still in the race who hasn't figured out "context" yet.
