SHE SPEAKS – WITH HER USUAL BRILLIANCE – AT 10:52 A.M. ET:  We sometimes forget that Hillary Clinton was a less-than-steller candidate in 2008.   She'd stumble, she'd utter the gaffe, she sometimes didn't know quite what to say.  In Ronald Reagan's terms, there she goes again.  Hillary has now given us a quote for the ages.  From Fox: 

At a Democratic rally Friday in Massachusetts, Hillary Clinton’s attempt to attack “trickle-down economics,” resulted in a spectacularly odd statement, according to The Washington Free Beacon.

Clinton defended raising the minimum wage saying “Don’t let anybody tell you that raising the minimum wage will kill jobs, they always say that.”

She went on to state that businesses and corporations are not the job creators of America. “Don’t let anybody tell you that it’s corporations and businesses that create jobs,” the former Secretary of State said.

Clinton’s comment will likely be used frequently to attack her as another big-government Democrat. She is seen by many as already running for president in 2016.

COMMENT:  Who does Hillary think creates the jobs in America?  The Department of Not Much Education?  That quote will haunt her.  Yes, governments do create some jobs – mostly government jobs, and government does have a proper role.  But the overwhelming number of jobs is created by business, especially small business.  And it's small business that is hurting under Democratic policies.

Maybe Hill just won't make it after all.  I do hope our side is quick enough to hang that quote on her right now!
