Cupp predicted that the image of the press behind the rope line would function as Michael Dukakis’ tank moment did in 1988, a visual encapsulation of a candidate’s weakness....................Hillary is doing it wrong

They should use that rope for other purposes.

I need not explain.

She’s The Worst Candidate Ever. EVER! No one can STAND the sound of her harridan voice; and when she DOES speak, her poll number PLUMMET!

If the Pubbies don’t win this one, it’s our own damn fault. (I know, I know!)

This should be like shooting carp in a barrel.

The image I’m left with is of her. As Mrs. B-J Clinton continues to age rapidly she more and more resembles a pear.

Wonder if she was wearing an earpiece. The reason....I think they were monitoring her heart etc.....and every stop was to keep her on target.

She is treating them like democrats treat everyone else on the leftist plantations and they don’t understand it.

Aren’t they supposed to get special treatment in return for kissing her rather ample butt?

That big secret Service guy next to Hillary is to keep her from staggering off the white line in the street

No one had a knife to cut the rope??? Not one person to stand up against Hillary? Not one?

This is humiliating for reporters who have to abide by Hillary Clinton’s rules of journalism

Really? You've never complained before when you've been asked to carry the party line and ignore the truth around you, so why start now?

Here's what's going on in a typical press room:

Reporter #1: Did you hear about how Hillary's team roped off the press?
Reporter #2: Yes, it was an outrage!

Reporter #1: I see this as a direct attack on the First amendment.
Reporter #2: I certainly agree with you there. Who does she think she is?

Reporter #1: Of course I'll still be voting for her.
Reporter #2: Me too. Now let's go out and smear some Republicans.

This is fake outrage to try and paint Hillary and the media as enemies.

The “Peoples Candidate” is afraid to answer to the People. Too Funny! I thought this kind of stuff only happened in the movies

Imagine ... if you will ... the media reaction if Sarah Palin's campaign team pulled a stunt like this.

The only reason candidates hold media events is so that the media will attend them and report favorably on the candidate.

So here we have Hillary publicly humiliating the media at an important event, which has led the media to report unfavorably on her.

A presidential candidate who uses rope to contain reporters during her candidacy is likely to use more rope to hang reporters with once she gains power. Yet the media refuses to fight back.

THE REPORTER'S LAMENT

Oh, give me a street under sunny skies above
To do my journalistic beat with the candidate I love
I don't mind aching feet and suffocating heat
But don't rope me in!

Just let me be by the side of ole Billy Clinton's bride
If she gives me a stare I'll be walking on air
Oh, the thrill of cov'ring Hill when her walk commences
To gaze at her face 'til I lose my senses
To bask in those smiles she so radiantly dispenses
But I don't like rope and I don't like fences
So don't rope me in!

I want to be with Miz Huma and those other fawning dopes
To throw roses at her feet.....but I can't stand ropes
So please, Mrs. Clinton, don't rope me in!
Please, please, please don't rope me in.....waaaaa.....you know I love you anyway.....waaaaa.....maybe yellow tape would do instead.....???

The media is willing to sacrifice itself to protect the One they love so much.

Since he first announced his candidacy, Obama has been treating the media like the stuff one would wipe off one’s shoes after walking through a dog park, but they keep coming back for more.

They will do the same with Hillary, regardless of ‘humiliating’ rope lines and such. That is who they are. That is what they do.

Recall them actually foot-chasing the Deathmobile in Iowa a few weeks ago?
