She backpedaled quickly, but not quick enough. And "misspoke" doesn't cover that kind of revisionist BS.
Nope. Not like she stumbled over her words. She stated a complete and coherent untruth.

According to the new Monmouth University Poll, “If Trump emerges as the GOP nominee, 7-in-10 Michigan Republican primary voters (71%) say they would get behind him in a general election against Hillary Clinton. However, 9% would actually vote for Clinton.
But if Tuesday’s primary results in Michigan are any indication, Trump, who has been underestimated at every turn of this campaign, should be taken seriously. Between his comfortable victory fueled by blue-collar white voters, and Hillary Clinton’s defeat thanks to her vulnerabilities with that same group, it’s possible that a November matchup between the two front-runners could drastically redraw the electoral map.
There are a few possible explanations for the huge polling miss in the Michigan Democratic primary: For instance, if a significant number of Clinton supporters stayed home out of complacency or crossed over to the Republican primary to oppose Trump, that may have contributed to Sanders’s shocking win. We might get more explanations from pollsters soon — I’ve emailed several who showed Clinton ahead by 10 percentage points or more to ask why they think the polls were so far from the voting results.
Here’s another possible explanation: The most recent Michigan polls in our database stopped contacting voters Sunday, the night of the last debate, held in Flint, Michigan. Although many thought Clinton performed better than Sanders in the debate, perhaps voters felt differently. After many pollsters missed Ted Cruz’s Iowa win and suggested that Clinton would win Iowa easily — she won so narrowly that some call it a tie — several pollsters told us a lesson they learned: “Keep on contacting voters as late as possible.” But it’s up to poll sponsors to pay to contact voters until the final days of the race, and none did so in Michigan.

She was trying to be nice at a funeral, it was hardly an evil mistake. Stupid, yes, evil no.
I wonder if at Nixon's funeral anyone hailed his great courage and transparency during the Watergatescandalfestival.

Yes. It couldn't possibly be because she misremembered Nancy Reagan as being a nicer person than she was - at a funeral of all places!Either she did this with full knowledge of what she was saying, or she has a mental deficit from her concussion which needs to be addressed.
I agree 100%.Stupid AND evil...
Mrs. Clinton accused Mr. Sanders of distorting her record and said the Vermont senator, who has made a single-payer health care system a signature part of his campaign, had not always been such an advocate on the issue.
She said she has "a little chuckle to myself" when she thinks about the current debates over health care. "I don’t know," Mrs. Clinton said. "Where was he when I was trying to get health care in ’93 and ’94?"
The answer: “Literally, standing right behind her,” a Sanders spokesman, Mike Casca, said on Twitter, posting a photo from a 1994 news conference that shows Mr. Sanders next to Mrs. Clinton when the then first lady spoke about the White House’s proposed health care overhaul.
In February, Sanders requested a meeting with Hillary, “to bring in two Harvard Medical School physicians who have written on the Canadian system,” according to the records of the administration’s task force. Those physicians were Stephanie Woolhandler and David Himmelstein, leading advocates for single-payer health care.
They got their meeting at the White House that month, and the two doctors laid out the case for single-payer to the first lady. “She said, ‘You make a convincing case, but is there any force on the face of the earth that could counter the hundreds of millions of the dollars the insurance industry would spend fighting that?’” recalled Himmelstein. “And I said, “How about the president of the United States actually leading the American people?’ and she said, ‘Tell me something real.’ ”
Sadly Animus, Clinton is right. And you forget that a lot of that money will go to the Congress, not the POTUS. It doesn't mean Clinton is on the take. It means she's taking a realistic position given the state of US politics today.

Hillary Clinton spent much of her Saturday speaking in St. Louis
Of course she couldn't help but take the opportunity kick sand at senator Sanders, Attempting to dismiss his concerns and dedication to Health Care.
She alleged, “I don’t know where he was when I was trying to get healthcare in ’93 and ’94.”
Really!?

Following on the heels of the Nancy Reagan revisionist history episode with regard to HIV, what is going on with HRC? is it just the strain of the campaign?
Maybe she's adopting Trump's campaign tactics, just say whatever B.S. pops into your head at a given moment and go with it.
