Campaign aides for Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton on Saturday roped off reporters from the candidate as she walked and talked with potential voters during a July Fourth parade in New Hampshire, sparking frustration from the press corps and outrage from the state Republican Party.
Hillary Clinton continues to demonstrate her obvious contempt and disdain for the Granite States style of grassroots campaigning, New Hampshire Republican State Committee Chairman Jennifer Horn said in a statement. The use of a rope line at a New Hampshire parade is a sad joke and insults the traditions of our first-in-the-nation primary.
Reporters were reportedly allowed to get close to Clinton but were later herded away by campaign aides concerned about crowd control.
Spectacle of Clinton as candidate -- press being pulled along with a rope, tweeted New York Times presidential campaign correspondent Maggie Haberman.

Never underestimate @HillaryClintons capacity to fritter away natural advantages with poor judgement, tweeted Politico politics reporter Glenn Thrush.

...and the supplicant, knee-padded reporters went along with this outrage. The reporters deserve a rope.

Very clever way to divert the coverage to “Hillary used a rope to stay away from reporters”, and away from the real story. “Hardly any voters showed up to see Hillary walk in a parade”...

They should have used the ropes the same way Mussolini did.

I don't think that's what the rope is all about. I think and I believe a reported said it...that it was to pace her for the mile long trek. I'll bet there were a few docs within 25 feet of her and people around her in the event she falls.
Roping off reporters simply doesn't make sense. They know the rules.
She looked like a dog in training.

If Politico is complaining about Hill this early in the campaign, she will probably wash out before long.
She was never a very good campaigner (to say the least)...and now she's just old and haggard.

Now they know to bring shears. Its unlawful detainment in the realm of something you can be arrested for?
At least now we all had demonstrated how she is going to govern when confronted with those that challenge her. Only when president shell be Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces.

I'm almost betting that she was wired for tracking her heart etc...
I don't think she's in pain...but maybe the next day. A mile does a number on your muscles if you're out of shape.
Wonder which spanx she was wearing.

She only calls on Bubba when her campaign seems to be floundering. Recall in 2008 that she had to rely on him when she was doing her 'plantation' and 'no waaaaz tard' ditties. She was not getting very good reception from the down-home folk -- until ole BJ joined her.
It will be the same this time, too.

On another thread there was a picture of the rope actually around a group of several people. Very stupid thing to do.
