I can't count the times that Hellary Clinton, Bill Clinton, her numerous surrogates, and the talking dunderheads in the obliging media have used the term "power through" to describe what Hellary was trying to do last week when she attended the 9/11 memorial ceremonies. She supposedly had a previously-diagnosed case of pneumonia and, despite this well-circulated term suggesting her metaphoric vigor (like a power fullback plowing through the line) ... ended up having a "health episode" which I will leave it to you to recall visually.
Now, she just used this term again today in North Carolina as she, after a three day convalescence, is back on the campaign trail saying that "I had a cough that turned into pneumonia and I thought I could 'power through' it." Barf! The use of this term has obviously been panel-tested ... put out as a talking point to the lap-dog media ... and implies that she is gutsy and resolute. However, since she went all wobbly on 9/11, she obviously didn't "power through" things very well. This term is clearly a lot more gutsy and resolute than she.
