"It’s taking her off of the campaign trail,” said Roberts [Cokie, NPR] Monday morning, indicating that the pneumonia has forced Clinton to cancel her upcoming trip to California. But as for members of the Democratic party, “It has them very nervously beginning to whisper about her stepping aside and finding another candidate.”

“It’s something you would be a fool not to prepare for,” he said in an interview on Monday. He added a note of caution, should Clinton attempt an expeditious return to the campaign trail.
“She better get well before she gets back out there because if she gets back out there too soon, it might happen again,” he said.

Listen to Bill.
Yeah, a couple of really wired insiders there. You have no idea how funny that post was.
I'll just repeat what I said yesterday: there's virtually no evidence that voters take the health of candidates into account, even when it's something on a more obviously serious level than pneumonia (as someone who lives in a state that once elected a dead man to the Senate, you really ought to know this already).
Anyone who wants to disagree, be my guest, but just asserting it to be so isn't proof.
for you, anyways.
