There are many possibilities. There are known unknowns and unknown unknowns (I'm not trying to be cute here).

Yes, he oculd be a right wing nutjob, but he could also be a left wing nutjob. Or he just might be a nutjob.

Oh, and thank God John Lynch is governor right now.

1. Hannity will make hay with this deal
He'll talk about how volatile she makes some people feel. Just wait. He's spending time with his writers and a focus group as we type.

2. At this point it seems that "just nutjob" is most likely.
He's reportedly got a history of emotional instability, conspiracy theories, was drinking earlier today, and is going through a divorce. Sounds like a good mix for either a little nutty, or an attempted suicide by cop.

3. I agree -- this might not be a politically motivated act at all. Clinton's campaign
may have been his choice simply because she's the one with the most visible profile in the media.

4. I agree.

6. my gut feeling is
it's a guy who is trying to get Hillary Clinton to help him get his medical care for his mental illness-hedging his bet on who he thinks is the most likely democratic candidate
