Nepal Sherpas Hold Prayer Service for Hillary (Wizbang Politics)

The news about Senator Clinton's win in New Hampshire hasn't reached Katmandu yet. How could that be? Didn't Chris Matthews say people in Burma would be hearing the results a day after the Iowa caucus? From AP-

Nepal's Sherpa community held a prayer service in Katmandu on Monday for Sir Edmund Hillary, who conquered Mount Everest and helped thousands of Sherpas living in its foothills by building schools and hospitals.

Oops wrong Hillary!

RIP Sir Edmund.
