Hillary hits it out of the park once again.

World Series champs should get statehood. #FinishTheFight

[pintobean]

1. Just the players

or does that include the owners, the coaching staff, the front office, the grounds keepers etc?

[delisen]

2. Does Clinton mean D.C.?

[itcfish]

3. Of Course

She means Washington DC

[LanternWaste]

4. You forgot Poland...

[Kingofalldems]

8. Her meaning was clear.

[left-of-center2012]

11. no

it wasn't clear

[MrsCoffee]

16. It wasn't clear only if one is being intentionally obtuse.

[Blue_Adept]

20. Exactly

[Cha]

21. Haha!

It's a puzzler alright!

[reACTIONary]

25. Its perfectly clear to those of us....

... Who have "taxation without representation" license plates. Outside the beltway, I'm not sure there is the same level of awareness.

[TwilightZone]

26. Agreed.

It couldn't be more obvious. Sometimes this place just makes me roll my eyes.

[triron]

19. Give me a break!

[whopis01]

17. All of them, obviously.

Each one should get their own statehood. That's clearly what she meant.

[mcar]

5. Statehood for DC

[CaptYossarian]

36. Let's not forget Puerto Rico.

They deserve more than a paper towel.

[maxsolomon]

6. Meh. It should simply become part of Maryland.

It already is, Geographically.

Puerto Rico needs statehood. 3.2 million citizens without representation.

[IronLionZion]

9. We'd be the most reliably blue state in the nation

and add 2 guaranteed Dem senators and our Dem Congresswoman would get a vote.

That's why repubs are blocking statehood for DC even though we voted for it. Puerto Rico has always voted to remain a territory.

[dem4decades]

10. Why not both? You have north and south Dakota. No one lives there.

[maxsolomon]

12. I oppose Statehood creep!

Next you'll have Guam wanting rights, and then what? It's a slippery slope, this "Democracy" and "Equal Rights".

Mass hysteria! Cats & Dogs, living together!

[dem4decades]

13. Please don't call me creep.

[Hekate]

18. Shirley you understood creeping statehood.

[maxsolomon]

23. Don't call Dem4Decades Shirley!

[dem4decades]

27. Thank you all. A little brevity on a weird day.

[littlemissmartypants]

32. Or

A little brief levity.

[CaptYossarian]

37. 4 million buffalo can't be wrong.

[erlewyne]

7. The World Series Champs

Need to win at home.

[Blue_Tires]

14. It'll never happen

because D.C. statehood = Two new automatic Dem votes in the Senate...

[aggiesal]

15. Taxation without representation n/t

[crickets]

28. +1

[Cha]

22. Mahao, Hillary.. your meaning is crystal Clear!

[Beartracks]

34. Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel.

Your Mahao has Noel.

=======

[Scurrilous]

24. K&R

[warmfeet]

29. True!

Well said, by President Hillary Clinton.

[ehrnst]

30. Brilliant! (nt)

[Collimator]

31. I have an admittedly weird concern about our flag.

Fifty-one stars would be jarring and unbalanced from an esthetics point of view. Fifty-two stars is workable.

[Polybius]

33. We'd have to move the Capital if DC becomes a state

It can't be located in any state.

[Centerfielder]

35. There is a reason

That Washington DC, London, and Vatican city are not part of the countries they are located in. They are the 3 pillars, military, financial, and spiritual control centers of the world.

[iluvtennis]

38. DC folks are taxed, they should have statehood and representation by senators. nt
