9 minutes ago


BUFFALO, N.Y. - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (news - web sites) collapsed
Monday during a speech on Social Security (news - web sites), a radio
station reported.

Colleen DiPirro, president of the Amherst Chamber of Commerce (news - web
sites), told WBEN-AM radio that Clinton told the crowd she was feeling weak
and had had a stomach virus. Clinton started to speak then collapsed,
DiPirro told the radio station.


Clinton, 57, was treated by an emergency crew at the scene and declined to
be taken to a hospital, the radio station said.


She was scheduled to speak later Monday at a Catholic college about health
care. Several hundred people were waiting to hear that address. There were
also hundreds of anti-abortion protesters waiting at the college.

Given her 2008 Presidential aspirations, I guess she didn't want to go on
record about abortion. It was easier to feign syncope than to face a
hostile crowd, and provide soundbites that would come back to nail her in 4
years...especially in light of her new effort to re-invent herself as a
social conservative.
