She can’t have misspoke; she said it three times. If her point was that campaigns often last until June she could have used Clinton’s (Bill) example and stopped. There was no reason to bring up Kennedy… three times! She is a politician. She knows the power of words and she knew they were weighted. She didn’t look tired to me, she wasn’t rushed or hurried. She seemed calm and relaxed. She said it, paused, and let the inference hang in the air. Usually a gaffe looks worse on paper than it actually is on video but in this case it seems far more deliberate in the video. She is going for the assassination angle. She is playing on fear. Clinton is truly desperate and will say anything to try and win this.
