Should Hillary have said it?

Barack Obama has started acting less like a candidate in a primary and more like a presumptive nominee for his party. He is looking past Hillary Clinton and directly at John McCain. Obama is in a good position and feels comfortable though I would not count out a Clinton. Hillary is expected to win big in West Virginia today and Kentucky next week and then, according to rumors, she will drop out of the race. No matter how strong Obama is going, 64% of Democrats nationwide want her to stay in the race so we will see what she does after Kentucky.
The article describing the rumor indicated that she hinted she would leave after those contests, presumably so she could leave on a high note. There is one thing she said that I think might have been better kept in her brain:
“A woman is like a tea bag: You never know how strong she is until she is in hot water.” New York Post
Given her husband’s past and what he lied about doing (and considering the hot water he got in), I am not sure I would have used the words Tea Bag to describe a woman.

I heard a few minutes ago Hillary won WV, we both know the dhims have no choice but to place Obama as the nominee. I’m sticking to what I said months ago, McCain will win, Obama stands no chance. Sad thing is, McCain is only slightly better than the socialist. Maybe worse because he is parading as a conservative… c’mon Johnny boy…. global warming?
I think that she should say whatever she has to say to get the nomination. Even Hillary is a better choice than Obama, by far. I would much rather have her with the shot at the Presidency than him.

If all the women who’ve married or dated cheatin’ men were to vote for Hillary, she would not only have the Democratic nomination already, but the Republican nomination as well.

I would hope that women who have been cheated on would not support staying with the louse and almost dismissing his immoral behavior. That would certainly not win my vote. If she had kicked his a** and told him where to go, I might think about it. (But just think…)
The quote attributed in this post to Hillary Clinton, about women being like tea bags, etc., is actually a famous quotation by Eleanor Roosevelt. Hillary has been known to repeat this quote often.
