Jason, you're clearly reaching hard on this one. Her cough was brief, and if you listened closely, there was a distinct hoarseness in her voice throughout the interview. So you probably should've added the 3rd possibility that she had something physically lodged or inflamation in her throat. good try, but it might just have hurt your credibility as an objective reporter.

It's a bit much to characterize that as a 'coughing fit.' Then again if it were me I'd just vomit.

to LondonInNY:

Hillary would be dangerous to be president? Aren't Bush and Nixon the most dangerous presidents the US ever had? Hillary is a pussycat compare to those two stupid yet dangerous bulldogs!

The Huffington Post is getting pathetic in their attempts to attack Clinton now. A coughing "fit"? Are you kidding me? She coughed like two times..

This is getting really sad..

Jeez. She coughed a little bit. Get a hobby.

She really looks cute here for a nice change of pace, all applecheeks and shrouded wattle.

Ann Coulter makes strange bed-fellows? That's a disgusting visual.

Cute story....

Okay, I just decided whom to vote for. The one most vilified is the best one to beat back all the "progress" made by the Guy voted in by 51% in 2004. She has a lot of experience being hated. She's my gal.
I'm ready to vote ... and I wasn't ready to vote before I read *this* post and its responding comments. Thanks, Arianna! I knew if I hung out here long enough, I'd find a definitive reason to vote for one or the other!

I am amazed that Dems have so bought into the wacked-out Right-Wing demonization of Hillary, their former heroine. This is one tough, smart, capable woman. She has the know-how to run this government - with her hands tied behind her back. Too sad that you all have been so negatively influenced by the Right-Wing propaganda machine. Keep it up and we'll have Mad Dog McCain for president. The Republicans must be laughing.

I Like HuffPo, but it has to be careful with some of these headlines. Coughing fit? Hardly. It reminds me of Hillary's 'tears' of a few weeks ago. As Jon Stewart said, "That was it?"
Hyperbole can render a talk show host to laughable crediblity. If HuffPo continues with headlines like this, its own credibility will quickly erode.

Hillary is not one of the girls She is the bitch that has to be stopped, have you forgotten?

Why is she surprised??
The Boys told her they'd give her all their operatives that she needs to appear like she had won the Election.
Just listen to the other Pin Head Mouthpieces- Rush BillO- they aren't eating their OWN - SHE IS THEIR GIRL! that's why they have begun by gutting their 'own' candidates- so it won't be so shocking when they come out for Hill (or remain quiet when she's handed the Pres).
HILLARY IS A AGENT FOR THE SAME CORPORATE SPONSORS WHO'VE GIVEN US THE LAST 40 YRS OF BULLSHIT!!
Rushed, Blind O' and Cuntler are NOT Republicans, THEY ARE CORPORATIONSITS, JUST LIKE HILLARY!

Yeah she is laughing because that is one of her girls. Hillary is a Bush Goldwater Girl. Check it out!!!

HuffPo, you have got to get someone to write better story headlines for you. If that's a coughing fit, I'm Chelsea Clinton.
