OK OK - I have been a strong supporter of Hillary until now. There is a line that can be crossed with me and she has crossed it. This statement really had little to do with me pulling my support. It’s an intangible - a one-more-straw thing and now Hillary has done it - at least with me. We older white Democratic women (of a certain age)remember Bobby’s assination as the big turning point in our political lives - the “Oh,-no,-I- give- up-I hate Nixon-what’s-the-use-now-Watergate” moment. I guess I felt we might have another chance to find someone just a little like Bobby - I guess I thought it might be her - but for me, who had already given her up - this reference to this dark moment in out recent history was the straw. Besides she is really messing up the party and must now just bow out while she still has some dignity. It’s over Hill and I never thought I’d say that and I guess, the real truth, I cannot stand Bill and for some stupid reason, I thought you might be different than him. Birds of a feather ….. now on to Obama - and may the gods and angels keep him safe.
Just ask me who I thought killed Jack and Bobby - !!!!!

If she was making some point about celebrity campaign contributions, would she point out the fact that Abraham Lincoln had been assassinated by an actor? The fact that the assassination reference can be tangentially tied to an arguably legitimate point does not make it any less ghoulish or inappropriate.
