The last couple of months of the long grueling polical race has gotten me a bit down. This short little piece in Time Magazine managed to raise a smile however.  After the running of the Kentucky Derby, Halperin posted:

Hillary Clinton enthusiastically picked a filly named Eight Belles to win the Kentucky Derby and compared herself to the horse. Eight Belles finished second. The winner was the favorite, Big Brown.

Eight Belles collapsed immediately after crossing the finish line, and was euthanized shortly thereafter.

No matter with your for Hillary or Barack, you have to smile at that one.
