It's been a rough stretch for Hillary Clinton -- a tough debate performance, a lost voice, and the revelation that the Clinton campaign had been coaching questioners at events.Then, on Sunday, everything started falling down around her.
After a very Presidential-esque news conference - Clinton turned around to leave the reporters and their peppering questions. A staffer swooped open a curtain, and chaos ensued. Four large American flags came crashing in front of Senator Clinton as she headed for the door. In a controlled panic, the staffers and the Senator attempted to catch the flags before they fell to the ground. "I think the bases are not weighted enough," Clinton said as she propped flags back up. One of Clinton's aides quickly summoned the advance man in charge to assist in the crisis. Clinton's spokesperson shifted back and forth between the cameras and the flag commotion before looking right at the cameras and saying, "Thanks everyone."
There were no planted questions to worry about, but on this Veterans Day the flags dropping all around the Senator created quite a stir among the press before Clinton fled the scene. There's more on Clinton's recent woes -- and whether the former first lady is looking more vulnerable than inevitable these days in The Note.

Justice is sometimes slow, but certain nonetheless. ;)
Does anyone remember when the Clintons were trying to save their run for the Presidency after Gennifer Flowers? They were on 60 Minutes and right after the program; one of the lights fell and almost hit them.
Are these omens? LOL
...Fought over who would be the first to wipe their feet.
The symbolism in this incident is classic...
With all the new rumors popping up about Hillary Clinton’s alleged affair with her aide Huma Abedin - and the possibility that the LA Times is holding a story about it - many tipsters have reminded us of page 42 of Gennifer Flowers’s 1995 book, Passion and Betrayal. Starting on that page, Bill Clinton’s ex-flame says that he very clearly told her that Hillary is a lesbian:
“There’s something you need to know. I’ve been hearing tales around town that Hillary is having another thing with a woman.” I watched his face to see his reaction, and couldn’t believe it when he burst out laughing. I was stunned! I asked him what was so funny. “Honey,” he said, “she’s probably eaten more pussy than I have.”
Bill said he had known for a long time that Hillary was attracted to women, and it didn’t really bother him anymore. His first clue came from her lack of enjoyment of sex with him. She didn’t like to experiment and insisted on the missionary position and nothing else. Because she wasn’t enjoying herself; neither was he. Sex with her became a duty; nothing more.”
Flowers, of course, has a reason to hold a grudge, but her old tales make for quite an interesting background for the current crop of rumors, no?
Who says there isn’t a god....he just proved his existence
Wherever Hillary casts her glance, rigid poles become flaccid.
Why? Because ABC reporters say so??? Common knowledge that aides will arrange access for reporters if they will play ball every so often.
She escaped serious injury (/sarc).
Omens? Perhaps.
Demon seed? Definately!
It’s almost as if Hillary’s campaign is flagging.
BUBBA AND FLUBBA
"Hillary, your post-debate polling data doesn't look too good."
"Drop dead, Bill."
There’s got to be a way to make a bumper sticker out of that.
"Tragically, however: all four flags promptly and inexplicably burst into flames, upon coming into contact with her body." ;)
O-o-o-o——that musta smarted. LOL.
She’s a worse candidate than Bob Dull!!!
Pray for W and Our Veterans
Not only is this symbolic but I wouldn’t be surprised if there was some “angelic” help involved in this incident (he he).
here’s your bumper sticker - Hillary’s not Kosher!
Huma M Abedin is an aide to the presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton. Media sources[attribution needed] describe her as one of Clinton’s closest advisers.[citation needed]
Abedin was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan to an Indian father and Pakistani mother, both Muslims.[
