She should've been arrested for assault. Disgusting.

It wasn't quite the reaction that that poor Columbian soccer player whom put a goal into his own net against the USA in the World Cup received when he returned home.

Slapping someone is most definitely not assault.

Regardless, slapping a public official in the face is totally out of bounds. What did she expect him to do- refuse to concede? Think that 300,000 more votes would come out of Dane at the last minute?

I don't know what you mean...it's fourth-degree/simple assault here, although I'm sure it varies by state.

It is sort of like as if General Lee had slapped General Picket after his charge up Cemetery Hill.

MSNBC told her it would be a disgrace if he conceded an obvious defeat 17 minutes prior to him doing so.  She was just acting out their brilliant "analysis."
