...........

And she urged the press to keep seat belts fastened because, "I have learned lately that things can get awfully bumpy."

Clinton, seeming to read off a provided script, added, "that in the event of an unexpected drop in the poll numbers" the plane would be diverted to New Hampshire.

In flight entertainment, the New York Democrat said, would consist of her stump speech.

And she told passengers that if they looked out the right of the plane they would see an "America saddled with tax cuts for the wealthiest and a war without end," and if they looked out the left they would, "see an America with a strong middle class at home and a strong reputation in the world."

4. What's with the pants suit meme?
Are they trying to imply she's not feminine enough?

2. I see that Senator Clinton has no respect for the FAA rules.
How can we trust her?

6. Shades of yesteryear; care to roll an orange, anyone?
"The biggest beneficiaries of modern electronic politics are the babies: they are no longer the chief recipients of presidential aspirants' saliva. The really important smooching takes place 40,000 ft. above the ground, with the traveling press corps. Kiss a baby, and maybe you will win Mom and Dad's votes. Kiss up to the media, and you can win millions."
