A woman was taken into custody after throwing what she described as a shoe at Hillary Clinton during a Las Vegas speech.
The incident happened moments after Clinton took the stage Thursday at an Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries meeting at the Mandalay Bay hotel-casino.
Clinton ducked but did not appear to be hit by the object, and then joked about it.
"Is that somebody throwing something at me? Is that part of Cirque de Soleil?" Clinton quipped.
She added: "My goodness, I didn't know that solid waste management was so controversial. Thank goodness she didn't play softball like I did."

5 hours later and nothing reported about the shoe-thrower, leading me to believe that the perp was a Code Pinko type throwing from the left. If the thrower had any association with the Tea Party or other groups regarded as right-wing, this would surely be mentioned all over the MSM.

Yeah, “she ducked”... after it whizzed by her head and was about 15 feet past her - her reflexes are pathetic.
