Not Exactly Edward R. Murrow

via Huffington Post


Worst. Line. Of. Questioning. Ever.


Couric: If it’s not you, how disappointed will you be?

Clinton: Well, it will be me. But of course, I’m ready to support the democratic
nominee, whoever it is.

Couric: I know that you’re confident it’s going to be you but there is the
possibility it won’t be and clearly you have considered that possibility.

Clinton: No I haven’t. You know, when you get up every day like I do and
you go out and meet hundreds and thousands of people and you talk about yourself,
and you talk about your dreams and hopes for the country and you talk about
what you will do as president and draw the contrast with your opponents, that
takes up all my time and energy, to just keep presenting myself and my candidacy.
So I get up everyday intending to meet and reach as many as people as possible
then I go to bed at night and then I get up and do it all over again.

Couric: So you never even consider the possibility?

Clinton: I don’t. I don’t.

Seriously, what is she supposed to say? I think about losing every day
and it’s made me so paranoid I can’t go on! Hand me a hanky, Katie. What was
I thinking trying to be president? It’s just too much.

Question for Katie: If you get fired, how humiliated would you be, how disappointed
that you failed? I know you’re confident that you can handle this anchor job
even though you keep screwing it up royally, but haven’t you considered the
possibility that you’re going to be canned after your ratings keep getting lower
than cricket crap? You had to have faced this reality since everyone is looking
at you wondering what in the hell you’re doing in Edward R. Murrow’s chair.

No? Yeah, I get it. How could you get up every day and face the criticism and
do your job if you kept worrying about losing what you’re fighting so hard to
accomplish? Makes sense to me.
