An armed man, possibly with a bomb, has taken people hostage at Hillary Clinton's campaign office in Rochester, N.H.
Clinton was not in New Hampshire Friday. She was scheduled to give an address at the Democratic National Committee meeting in Vienna, Va., Friday afternoon, but DNC Chairman Howard Dean announced from the podium that Clinton would not speak. New York TV station WNBC reported that the suspect has demanded to speak to her.
Police said a man in his 40s, with salt-and-pepper hair, is in the building and has what appears to be an explosive device strapped to his body, TV station WMUR reported.

Medved is reporting on it now
Fox interviewee says it’s someone named “Troy Stanley”.
He’s stealing the “H”s of the keyboards
The man went to a local hardware store earlier in the day today, to purchase the materials for the “bomb” duct taped to his chest, according to another new report.
Sounds like law enforcement is leaning heavily toward hoax, but the man reportedly still holds at least one hostage, so they’re being very cautious.
(Raises hand). Notice how when things get hot for the Dems in the news(ala dem plants in CNN debate), that within 1-3 days something else conveniently hits the airwaves to take the press away?
Hillary’s trying to garner sympathy. All hostages were released quickly and I bet he gives himself up without a shot. Then they’ll ask Hillary about her staff and she’ll gush about their courage and laugh in faux relief.
It's very easy. Find someone who's going to prison anyway, and promise them a pardon when you get in, or early parole from one of your fellow-travelling Judges if you don't. With the added plus that pardoning an "assassin" would make Hilliary look like Pope JPII.
Here, here, pick me! I think it's a Hillary stunt.
Not a plant..just a nut looking for his 15 minutes.
If this is one is actually working for the Clintons (which I doubt, but you never know . . . ) he should still have his head blown off. A terrorist is a terrorist, and I don’t really care who or what their “cause” is. They should be killed and tossed in the nearest landfill without further ado. Bothering to investigate what their “cause” is plays into their hands, encouraging more terrorism by garnering publicity for the evil “causes” of all who use terrorism as a political or religious tactic. As far as I’m concerned, if you commit terrorism, then that’s your cause, and you should be terminated, period.
“Suspect is reportedly known to local authorities due to some sort of past incident, according to news reports, has a record of emotional instability.”
I can see why he picked the DEM HQ of Hillary. Must have made him feel right at home.
Don’t know if it’s same guy. FOX interviewed an acquaintance who said Mr. Stanley claimed a device had been planted in his head by the government to control his thoughts.
He is probably a Democrat pretending he is a Republican. Happened about five times just the other night at the debates.
.....Troy Stanley.....
Not Stanley Yelnats, whose great grandfather was a dirty rotten pig stealer
That was pretty funny.
One of the Code Pink marines or one of the gay generals?
Plant gone bad?
