Wait a minute! Didn't Rocky lose to a black man on his first attempt? |

16. That's Why I Didn't Do It |
|
But it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out if Hillary's Rocky and Apollo is Creed who is Drago...
To mix metaphors people here are beating this analogy to death...

22. He Was Married To Brigitte Nielsen In The Movie |
|
Who Sylvester Stallone married in real life...
That's the fight where he goes to train in Russia to fight Drago... His spirit so impresses the Russians that even Mikhail Gorbachev is cheering for him to beat Drago at the end of the fight...
I generally like the Rocky saga but it became more and more maudlin...

If she can do that, I'd probably be impressed enough to vote for her.

C'mon folks. Mrs. Clinton presents us with enough real issues to get upset about without resorting to these sophomoric "gotchas".

you seem to be reveling in your error.

I didn't even know that. I haven't seen any of the Rocky's or the Rambos, as they came before I was born and I'm not a fan of Sylvester.
