Hillary Clinton falling ill at a memorial service on the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks Sunday morning will catapult questions about her health from the ranks of conservative conspiracy theory to perhaps the central debate in the presidential race over the coming days.
"Secretary Clinton attended the September 11th Commemoration Ceremony for just an hour and thirty minutes this morning to pay her respects and greet some of the families of the fallen," spokesman Nick Merrill said. "During the ceremony, she felt overheated, so departed to go to her daughter's apartment and is feeling much better."
What that statement leaves out is that a) it came 90 minutes after Clinton left the ceremony b) reporters -- or even a reporter -- were not allowed to follow her and c) the temperature in New York City at the time of Clinton's overheating was in the low 80s. (A heat wave over the eastern United States broke last night/this morning.)
Whether Clinton likes it or not, her "overheating" comes at a very bad time for her campaign. Thanks to the likes of Rudy Giuliani and a small but vocal element of the Republican base, talk of Clinton's health had been bubbling over the past week -- triggered by a coughing episode she experienced during a Labor Day rally.
That talk was largely confined to Republicans convinced that Clinton has long been hiding some sort of serious illness. I wrote dismissively of that conspiracy theory in this space last week, noting that Clinton had been given an entirely clean bill of health by her doctors after an episode in which she fainted, suffered a concussion and then a blood clot in late 2012 and early 2013.

Chris Cillizz and CNN are outraged some 'deplorable' was able to get the truth out... God, how they hate us for telling the truth... Oh, and thanks Rudy Giuliani for standing up the the liberal elite thugs in the press... thanks for sticking to your guns and telling the truth to their lies.
This is why the press will be shown no mercy.
They will STILL try to hide this, just like they hid OBAMAS foreign birth and mooselimb religion.
EVERYTHING that SON OF A WHORE signed is ILLEGAL and will be reversed.
The NYPS was brought in to recover her shoe.
I’m sure the BRITISH PRESS will give us the details.
NYPD
Democrats, their butt kissers in the press, AND the FBI and DOJ are ALL 'above the law'... (in their own minds...)
Whatever needs to be done - cheating, lying to the people, bending the rules... they'll do it for a democrat. The system is rigged by white liberal elite thugs...
They'll do whatever they have to do ... again, the thugs are 'above the law'... Elites lying to a 'basket of deplorables' is NOT a problem. Their Hollywood backers would cheer if we were lined up and shot. It's time to be real about these folks... they ARE the haters. They ARE the totalitarians.
Yup. Voter fraud was responsible the second time. It will be record-setting, rampant fraud this year. We’ll need an additional 5% to offset the fraud.
I think Rob Gunzberger is having a panic attack.
Why the theatrics?
Yup. The author Cilizi or whatever is a jerk.
If you watch closely, you will see that the reason she fell sharply after tottering is that the guy holding her right arm was apparently surprised when he stepped off the curb and he went down a bit, taking her down with him.
Huma? Hopefully home taking care of her son. Her idiot husband sure can’t.
if you watch her feet in one video on twitter, they are not moving at all. They DRAGGED her into the vehicle. At the bottom of the video you can see the bottoms of her shoes as they dragged her.
she looks really really vaso-vagal.

Nah, it's just that one or more competitors have let the extremely ill/soon to be deceased (unless they pull an Ariel Sharon on her) out of the LSM bag of deceit.
The Left/Rats/Media are backed into a corner of their own making. They’ve had almost 25 years to vet this horrid person. I’m liking that she toppled over on 9/11.
Henceforth, what does the campaign do about this situation? Will SS agents be required to flank her on all sides to catch her should she suddenly become faint? Will they do this at campaign events? Debates? Fundraisers?
If they don’t flank her at all times, what if she becomes faint and just takes a header like the one that caused her concussion in the first place?
The problem isn’t limited to the episode today. They have to come up with a strategy that allows her to appear healthy enough while at the same time they are always ready at a second’s notice to come to her rescue and thwart any video coverage of another episode.
They have a real challenge - one I don’t think they can overcome.
LOL!
Sounds as if you should never run for president. Oh, don’t try to tell ME I know nothing about humidity as you did Impy unless you want to make a fool of yourself.
Forever.
Proof?
Fidel Castro.
