News of the Weird: Hillary's Batty Opponent
The important questions about this fall's New York senate race have for some time been how much incumbent Hillary Clinton runs up the score generally and how she does upstate (which will be proclaimed as a microcosm of Red State America).

But we can thank the feckless New York GOP for at least providing some comedy, if not a real challenger.

<snip>

"Hillary Clinton is really worried about me, and is so worried, in fact, that she had helicopters flying over my house in Southampton today taking pictures," according to a prominent GOP activist who was at the event.

"She wasn't joking, she was very, very serious, and she also claimed that Clinton's people were taking pictures across the street from her house in Manhattan, taking pictures from an apartment across the street from her bedroom," added the eyewitness, who is not involved in the Senate race.

3. Is she sure she didn't just sign up for Verizon?

Cause the would explain a bunch of people following her all of a sudden.

Or maybe the NSA is checking her out/protecting her.

:rofl:

on edit: "sudden" is not spelled "suddent" so I corrected it.

5. Pickles can always loan her a week's supply.
I'll bet Laura carries that much in her purse pill-box.

6. The kool-aid drinkers will still vote for this crazy nut over Hillary
How sad is that? I think the NY GOP is going to be looking for another candidate. The bat shit crazy vote in NYS is only 10% to 20%.

8. This is their second try at a
candidate, they don't have anyone. And they can't find anyone to run for Governor either.

10. If that wacky
GOPer beats Hillary, it'll probably be because republicans, especially those that lurk at DU, know that a lot of Democrats don't like Hillary either.

"Hilary's spy-mobile"

14. This woman is nothing but a sacrificial lamb.
I'd call her a suicide bomber but the only thing this poor dear is going to blow up is her political reputation. I'm sure the New York State Republican party will find a nice job for her counting paper clips or something when it's all over.

15. Sure Ms. McFarland,
we believe you. You need to tell those nice folks at the mental hospital. They'll keep you safe.
