Obama supporters are sexist and violent. This comment in moderation penned by a certain Stop Hillary Now is emblematic:

“We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don’t understand it,” she said, dismissing calls to drop out.
Hillary is batshit, Liebercrat crazy.
Fuck her with a pitchfork.

I guess typical Obama supporters are incapable of understanding that Hillary cited an historical example in order to illustrate how long the nomination process usually is. I quote Clinton Campaign Communications Director Howard Wolfson:
“She was talking about the length of the race and using the ’68 election as an example of how long the races in the past have gone — she used her husband’s race in the same vein.”
Why should she withdraw in May when past contents extended into June and up to the convention? And why do Obamabots insist on misinterpreting the comment she uttered during her interview with the Argus Leader‘s Editorial Board earlier today? Expect them to swarm around this comment as so many hungry and desperate vultures.
[UPDATES courtesy of Breeze] Hillary issued a clarification of her remarks. I quote it in full, as it is very compelling.
“I was discussing the Democratic primary history and in the course of that discussion mentioned the campaigns of both my husband and Senator (Robert) Kennedy waged in California in June in 1992 and 1968 and I was referencing those to make the point that we have had nomination primary contests that go into June. That’s a historic fact,” she said.
“The Kennedys have been much on my mind the last days because of Senator Kennedy,” she added, referring to Sen. Edward M. Kennedy’s recent diagnosis of a brain tumor. “I regret that if my referencing that moment of trauma for our entire nation and in particular the Kennedy family was in any way offensive. I certainly had no intention of that whatsoever.
“My view is that we have to look to the past to our leaders who have inspired us, give us a lot to live up to, and I’m honored to hold Senator Kennedy’s seat in the United States Senate from the state of New York and have the highest regard for the Kennedy family[.]“
And here is a transcription of her statement as it appeared during her interview with the Editorial Board of the Argus Leader today:
HRC: People have been trying to push me out of this ever since Iowa.
Q: Why?
HRC: I don’t know. I don’t know. I find it curious. Because it is unprecedented in history. I don’t understand it. Between my opponent and his camp and some in the media there has been this urgency to end this. And historically, that makes no sense. So I find it a bit of a mystery.
Q: So you don’t buy the party unity argument?
HRC: I don’t because again I’ve been around long enough.
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. There’s lots of speculation about why it is.
Q: What is your speculation?
HRC: I don’t know. I find it curious. And I don’t want to attribute motives or strategies to people because I don’t really know, but it’s a historical curiosity to me.

By the way, Stop Hillary Now is also the same user who has posted variations of the following under multiple pseudonyms:
Hilary Supports OBAMA! | dsfjkljlk@jkljklj.net | IP: 98.145.181.16
Hillary will campaign & vote for Obama.
Liebercrats & McCainiacs will vote for an asshole.
Hillary is smarter than you.
Follow her lead, or not.
We’ll win without you.

Sometimes this ostensible representative of feminism exhorts women to cast their votes for Obama, as Hillary has stated that she will support Obama if he is the Democratic nominee. He even claims we are sexist if we do not support the candidate who has exploited misogyny for electoral gain. I quote again:
Hillary supports Obama. | dfsfnne@jldsuiof.net | IP: 98.145.181.16
Hillary wants you to vote for Obama if he’s the nominee.
Why are you disrespecting her?
That’s sexist of you.
Be smart.
Like Hillary.

Be prepared to be hoodwinked and bamboozled, for the Obamabots will penetrate and impale you if you do not yield to their misogynistic pressure. They will also misconstrue your statements.
