    Yes, L.W.M., you did. Her recent statements, on the other hand, were about developing situations -- where neither all the facts, nor the outcome of events were guaranteed to confirm her opinions. Policy papers can always be disavowed, or qualified. Speaking ex tempore on the basis of those policy papers is quite another kettle of fish, especially in the midst of a campaign. I give her credit for that, and wonder if it's because she now believes that her nomination is assured.
