Hillary Clinton had a massive coughing fit as she began a campaign rally in Cleveland, Ohio. She had trouble speaking and thanking local elected officials and had to stop multiple times to cough and clear her throat.

The coughing is actually taking her breath away.
I just rec’d this in an email.
If you’re over 35, you lived through it, so read it and recollect. Amazing to me how much I had forgotten! For those under 35, read this, verify and don’t forget. ________________________________
When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over an attempt to health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t get a vote in a Democrat controlled US Congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million for studies, promotion, and other efforts.
Then, President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood - both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration.
Next, she chose Janet Reno - husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.”
Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.
Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.
Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department.
Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.
Many younger voters will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson - and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.
Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House.
Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.
Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the “bimbo eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:
She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.
She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor.
After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr’s investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs. Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for ‘lying under oath’ to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.
Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.
After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.
What a swell person - ready for another four or eight years of this low-life fool?
Now we are exposed to the unsecure keeping and attempted destruction of beyond Top Secret emails while Hillary was US Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation. What “shoe will fall” next?
But to her loyal fans: “What difference does it make?”
Electing Hillary Clinton president would be like granting Satan absolution and giving him the keys to heaven!
Certain medications like heart meds can cause uncontrollable coughing.
what I don’t get is why she doesn’t back off the mic when these attacks happen and allow someone else, e.g. Kaine, to come up and fill in for a few min. She seems to be in denial. Coughing into a live microphone is not cool.
She needs another two week vacation to recuperate.
I noticed that she keeps sniffing, almost constantly.
Drudge had it up now.
Did not sound like a very big crowd.
Well that is discomforting. I wonder how many votes she lost with that. Who the heck wants to vote for a dying cat?

“By bringing up her concussion as the reason for her memory problems...”
What was her excuse BEFORE the concussion? She didn’t remember anything then, either.
It reminds me so much of Iraq’s “Bagdad Bob”.
“Everything’s going great, no problem, she’s in excellent health, move along!”
I guess its on a case by case basis, my grandma never coughed..she had a very hard time walking(As her condition worsened), out of breath, and she would take medication to help her urinate to get rid of the fluid build up
Hillary is ill. She is not going to make it to November. The gal on MSNBC just described it as “a little bit of a coughing fit”. They think we are all stupid.
DRUDGE has it now.............
Shucks. I was hoping she would be wearing her pot holder housecoat.
I’m with you, it would be absolutely brilliant to watch her choke to death on her own words on live tv, the ultimate karma...
However,we *could* go after her,health-wise,since the release of those FBI records a few days ago.
"So,Hillary,were you lying when you said your head injury has affected your memory or should we reject you as being medically unfit to be President?"
I’m starting to wonder if a coughing attack is a side effect of some medication they use to prop her up for public speeches. If that’s the case, just add it to the list of reasons why she won’t make speeches, do press conferences, appear on Sunday political shows, etc.
