Hillary—Just Plain Lying?

She’s claiming that she’s a stronger candidate than Barack Obama against John McCain in every poll.
“You have to ask yourself, who is the stronger candidate? And based on every analysis, of every bit of research and every poll that has been taken and every state that a Democrat has to win, I am the stronger candidate against John McCain in the fall.”
As CBS reporter Fernando Suarez points out, that’s not even close to being true.
The problem is, there are a number of polls that show Clinton in a close race with John McCain, many within the margin of error, not including a few that show Barack Obama beating McCain by a larger margin than Clinton. …For days, Clinton has been grasping at almost anything to make her case to voters as the clock in the campaign winds down. Most recently Clinton compared the plight of Florida and Michigan voters to the struggles of the early suffragists and likened the primaries of those states to the fraudulent election that took place in Zimbabwe.
She’s also claiming that she’s the only candidate who can end the war.
Also: She can singlehandedly stop global warming, solve the Yankees’ pitching problems, and remove red wine stains from white fabric.

You forgot to add the coda to the last sentence: “…all while baking chocolate chip cookies.”
