This just proves what we have known all along. Hillary is some actress. It’s not easy getting your tears to flow on command, but the widdle trooper was able to pull it off:
Give me a break. Or as Michelle put it – “All together now: Boo-freaking-hoo.”
Then all the rage in news today has been the fact that she may drop out:
Facing a double-digit defeat in New Hampshire, a sudden collapse in national polls and an expected fund-raising drought, Senator Hillary Clinton is preparing for a tough decision: Does she get out of the race? And when?!
“She can’t take multiple double-digit losses in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Nevada,” laments one top campaign insider to the DRUDGE REPORT. “If she gets too badly embarrassed, it will really harm her. She doesn’t want the Clinton brand to be damaged with back-to-back-to-back defeats.”
Meanwhile, Democrat hopeful John Edwards has confided to senior staff that he is staying in the race because Hillary “could soon be out.”
“Her money is going to dry up,” Edwards confided, a top source said Monday morning.
Key players in Clinton’s inner circle are said to be split. James Carville is urging her to fight it out through at least February and Super Tuesday, where she has a shot at thwarting Barack Obama in a big state.
“She did not work this hard to get out after one state! All this talk is nonsense,” said one top adviser.
But others close to the former first lady now see no possible road to victory, sources claim.
The dramatic reversal of fortunes has left the media establishment stunned and racing to keep up with fast-moving changes.
In its final poll before Iowa, CNN showed Clinton with a two-point lead over Obama. Editorial decisions were being made based on an understanding the Democratic primary race would be close, explained a network executive.
Which, if true, must mean that her own campaign polling (done by the best in the biz, because we all know how much the Clintons love dem some polls) is showing that the Obama trend is even stronger then the MSM polls are showing. That’s the only thing that would explain this talk of dropping out.
If its true.
But her hubby is doing his best to keep her in the race by explaining that he can’t make her “more male”:
What a pompous ass. We could care less if she is female or male. I will pull the lever on a female who is qualified to lead this nation. Someone who is not a Socialist looking to spread Socialism throughout the country. Give me a American version of Thatcher and I would pull for her. Give me a American female version of Karl Marx, as you have given us in Hillary, and I will do my best to ensure she never becomes President.
But I do agree with Bill on one thing, his take on Ron Paul supporters:
“You wanna know what I think?” Clinton said. “You guys who think 9/11 was an inside job are crazy as hell. My wife was the senator from New York when that happened. I was down at Ground Zero. I saw the victims’ families. You’re nuts.”
Heh!
UPDATE
The Anchoress predicted this crying game 5 days ago:
What I dread most in this political season is the “genuine” moment – and it is coming, soon, sometime between today and tomorrow, or tomorrow and New Hampshire – when Mrs. Clinton, in her ongoing effort to turn herself into whatever the polls says she must be, cries in public. It’s going to be genuinely ghastly.
Getting her thoughts on Apple stock as we speak!

I absolutely love the redesign — awesome! Great work guys!
She had a good teacher. Remember her husband tearing up at a funeral within seconds of laughter because he saw cameras on him?
Mzaybe, she can tear up to charm Putin or Ahma whatever his name is in Iran too. The strength and determination would be underwhelming.
Slip sliding away is the song of the day. I can’t seem to feel sorry for her, pay back is a b—h. I’d love to think it’s over, but that crooked machine will find some way to win.
You people are imbeciles. You don’t have a clue that Hillary, whom you despise so much, is exactly the same as that freak Huckabee or that mafia man Giuliani or whoever the hell it is that you warmongers support. Oh, I get it, you just want Bush again. You losers forgot that Bill and Bush Senior are best friends! Gee, but it must hurt to be you.
Gosh, no matter how old and wrinkled Fred looks, I don’t see him being brought to tears over the demands of the campaign trail.
I also don’t see Sen McCain’s voice starting to crack. Maybe he finds the campaign trail hotels a bit more comfortable than some of the others he’s stayed in?
Hell, even Mike Huckabee boasts about his Holiday Inn Express luxury.
Yeah, Osama and Ahmadinejad are REALLY gonna be stared down by someone who can’t handle the rigors of an American political campaign.
Seriously, this is a staged bit. We all know it. And if it weren’t, then she’s pitiful. Lady…you’ve got FORTY NINE more states to go, and you’re already at the verge of tears?
The problen is Jainphx, the “crooked machine” is getting eaten alive by their own MSM that has found another liberal darling to embrace. Also reality is setting in that the nations voters never considered another 4 or 8 years of a “Clinton dynasty”.
Sure hope your right Rovin, no one deserves to be defeated more.
Agreed, but you won’t catch me “dancing in the end zone” until the clock strikes 00.
When/if this transpires, it will be funny to read how all the editorials of the MSM (that abandoned her) will write about all the things she did wrong in her campaign. I believe the drivers license fiasco in NY state, and her “waffleing” on the issue opened/cracked a whole in her dam of Inevitability.
whole……should have been hole. Where’s an editor when ya need one? 🙂
Tears from a thinking machine — most unusual. But isn’t there a worry of rust?
If the freak Hillary is getting all this news for crying once, why is no one raking the freak Mitt over the coals for crying on Meet the Press about crying in 1978?

That music is incredible, and I’m not even into that kind of music. I really like it!
