In response to:
Clinton just performed the coup de grace. She accepted responsibility & acted Presidential. Democratic women aren't going to like Hillary taking the fall for her boss. This will alienate Democratic women. It will now be hard for Obama to take responsibility and appear genuine alienating more independent voters. Perfectly performed. Obama boxed in with no where to go.
In his latest refusal to fulfill the duties of President of the United States, Barack Obama failed to comment about whether Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was really responsible for the events leading up to and following the attack in Benghazi on 9/11. When asked directly about Clinton's role, Obama walked away.
And no, you didn't miss when President Obama held a press conference about Libya, he hasn't done that yet.
One, if he does nothing, says nothing, the appearance is that she has more gravitas than he does, and perhaps she should have been the democrat candidate back in 08. Remember that commercial she put out about the 3AM phone call? Well, it happened.
Two, if he cans her, well he really looks small and does lose the Hillary vote, and probably many more.
