Is Hillary psyching herself out for the debate?
American Thinker ^ | September 23, 2016 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 09/23/2016 6:35:27 AM PDT by Zakeet

If I were capable of feeling empathy for Hillary Clinton, I would be full of concern for her mental and physical state as she prepares for a 90-minute ordeal Monday night at Hofstra University. We are seeing very little of her lately, as unspecified debate prep supposedly takes up her time. One rather disturbing clue as to her mental state came Wednesday when she made a weird teleconference speech to a labor gathering in Las Vegas. Headlines resulted from her question, “Why aren’t I ahead 50 points?” but the shouting tone of voice in which she delivered that fantasy-laden query was highly off-putting, to say the least.

Was she imagining herself on a podium in front of a vast audience, and adopting a pre-microphone orator’s voice? Watch this less-than-one-minute excerpt and notice that she seems to get excited, and then raises her voice:

Hillary Clinton: "Why aren't I 50 points ahead of Trump?"

Then there are those eyes.

Let’s look past next Monday.

What’s the over/under on how many days she’ll have to take off to recover post-debate? 3 sounds about right to me (assuming, of course, she survives the debate).

I really don't think she can make it through an hour and a half standing.

Contest should be What excuse will they use when ILLary cancels the debate?

Thank you! I was thinking that photo of Hillary was strangely familiar.

I think she, along with the media of course, are setting the tone, and the questions, for the debates.
Questions about Trump’s foundation, his tax returns, His racism...Isn’t Right to Work racist? Does he believe his rhetoric inspires ISIS? Is he a traitor?
Why do you hate the handicapped?

Looks like Charles Krauthammer strapped to a chair. I love Charles, so I’m very sorry, but it does.

They are going to “load” the audience with people who are going to boo Trump and clap for Hillary. They are not going to control the audience at all. It will be like many of the Primary debates. It is going to be absolutely nauseating when this happens and it will. There will be very few Trump supporters in that audience.

“I’m glad the pneumonia is gone.”

There no way she had bacterial pneumonia. That's a serious condition and it takes a lot of care and some time to get a 68-year-old back in good working order.

What do you bet she will be so anxiety ridden to face Trump she pukes at the podium.

Entry for the caption contest:

“I’D JUST LIKE TO SAY I’M SAILING WITH THE ROCK, AND I’LL BE BACK LIKE INDEPENDENCE DAY, WITH JESUS JUNE 6. LIKE THE MOVIE, BIG MOTHER SHIP AND ALL, I’LL BE BACK.”

If someone would post a picture of Aileen Wuornos along side Hillary I’d be grateful. Striking similarity.

Or perhaps it’s her variation of Rope a dope. Giving Trump a false sense of the debate.I expect by the 2nd week in October the media will be declaring Hillary’s comeback over some oddball thing she does.

Perhaps no different than the 1998 grand jury reports of Bill Clinton's "face was red with rage".

The full text ... “Why am I not ahead by 50 per cent? I mean, Barack won by 10 and he wasn’t even born in America. And all of my voters get two votes, plus all those dead ones, so I mean, what the heck ...”

If you watch her blinking, it’s very odd. There are times she stops blinking for a long time! Very off-putting. She doesn’t seem relaxed, but very rehearsed.

[ What excuse will they use when ILLary cancels the debate?]

I would like to hear Trump ask the schedulers TODAY if she will attend, if not, he can pencil in another rally for that day.

If she continues to waffle on any future presidential debates, they should start the VICE presidential debates until she is physically and mentally able.

Hofstra in on Long Island and Nassau/Suffolk Counties are going for Trump. She should be nervous.
