8. I actually thought it might be a dig at Ted Kennedy, if that.
Kennedy tanked her campaign and she can't be too happy about that.

But it's possible that she brought up assassination for the reason you suggest. I'd feel badly about it except that every single time she or her husband say anything, they are accused of racism, even when their statements are not racist or even anti-Obama. (To talk about a white working class is perfectly legitimate when discussing the demographics of the electorate, but to some here at DU (and in the media) this identification of a white demographic is racist. Go figure.)
