Hillary Clinton, in explaining why her campaign soldiers on, mentions Bobby Kennedy's assassination in June 1968.
You know, she may indeed (as she claims) have simply meant to reference the fact that he too kept his campaign going into early June.
But I wonder: isn't it possible that, subconsciously, she was thinking: "it's possible that Obama could be assassinated before the convention; and if so, I'd then be in position to step in."
Not that she wants it to happen, but...
She'd take the nomination if that happens.
