Third Time's A Charm: Parsing Hillary's Multiple RFK References
Advertisements [?]
I've been trying to collect all of them. So far as I can count, it's three. If anyone has another reference, please post it here.

March 6 - CLINTON: No, I really can't. I think people have short memories. Primary contests used to last a lot longer. We all remember the great tragedy of Bobby Kennedy being assassinated in June in L.A. My husband didn't wrap up the nomination in 1992 until June. Having a primary contest go through June is nothing particularly unusual.


Discussing TIME.. no need to reference an assassination.

April 25 - You know, I remember very well what happened in the California primary in 1968 as Sen. Kennedy won that primary.


She is NOT talking about dates here. She says she remembered "what HAPPENED AS" Kennedy won the primary. That would be his assassination.


May 23 - "My husband did not wrap up the nomination in 1992 until he won the California primary somewhere in the middle of June, right? We all remember Bobby Kennedy was assassinated in June in California. I don't understand it," she said, dismissing calls to drop out.


Even if she is talking about "dates" there is no need to mention the "what happened", which she so clearly was talking about in the second example.
