Hillary = Rocky (huh?)

We here at PICM have been following the Democratic race pretty seriously. If you have too you are probably aware that at a recent rally outside of Philadelphia Hillary Clinton compared herself to Rocky and played the theme song. This in itself is pretty hilarious but whats even better is some of the comments people posted under the article about it on the New York Times website.

Rocky loses at the end.

Hillary is a fool

As a matter of fact Rocky lost that game.
To a black man.

I’m fine with this, as long as she is aware that she gets counted out at the end. It’d be great to see her working over frozen sides of beef, too. — Posted by c greene

Why shouldn’t Hillary Clinton relate naturally to Rocky Balboa?
They’re both largely fictional characters, after all.

Stallone is a supporter of McCain

I thought it was Rambo who drew the sniper fire?

What will she do next: commit to putting out the coal fire, campaign in an Amish buggy, or pose for photo’s with Terry Bradshaw?
