I was playing with my Xbox a few days ago and eventually wandered upstairs for coffee and a sandwich when I turned on the news to learn that someone claiming to have a bomb had taken hostages at Hillary!'s New Hampshire campaign headquarters. Disappointed to find out that Hillary! wasn't among them, I continued on my mission.
The press was effusive in its praise of Hillary!'s handling of the matter:
AP:
When the hostages had been released and their alleged captor arrested, a regal-looking Hillary Rodham Clinton strolled out of her Washington home, the picture of calm in the face of crisis.The image, broadcast just as the network news began, conveyed the message a thousand town hall meetings and campaign commercials strive for - namely, that the Democratic presidential contender can face disorder in a most orderly manner.
Politico:
The scene was one of a woman in charge."It looked and sounded presidential," said Larry Sabato, director of the University of Virginia Center for Politics. "This was an instance of the White House experience of this campaign. They knew how to handle this."
Pffft. Completely ignored was the reaction of this political observer, who expertly prepared his sandwich, and then continued on to play his Xbox game, without noticeable hand tremors or other signs of distress.
Icewater in his veins. It's called leadership, baby.
