She would've probably been better had she simply not responded. Personally, none of this surprises me and I think it's stupid, but nonetheless, it looks like she's in the net.

March 25 (Bloomberg) -- Democratic presidential candidate
Hillary Clinton said she ``misspoke'' in her tale of running
across a tarmac under sniper fire after landing in Bosnia as
first lady in 1996, the New York Times reported.
Clinton, a New York senator, clarified her remarks yesterday
after CBS News aired footage that shows her and daughter Chelsea
walking calmly across the tarmac where dignitaries and a child
stood to welcome them, the Times said.
According to the paper, Clinton said at a meeting of the
Philadelphia Daily News editorial board that officials told her
``that we had to land a certain way and move quickly because of
the threat of sniper fire,'' not that shots were being fired.
``So I misspoke,'' she said.
Clinton's most recent description of the landing came last
week in remarks her aides said yesterday weren't part of a
prepared speech, the Times reported. Clinton has often cited her
80 trips abroad as first lady as evidence she's best prepared to
handle foreign affairs as president, the Times said. |
So what of the "no welcome ceremony" and "running directly to the cars", etc., etc., etc., She's poison.
