Unbiased... It doesn't matter if HRC's "cry" was real or strategy... This is why!
Edited on Wed Jan-09-08 01:50 PM by mrdemocrat78
You know what... I don't really care if she faked her display of emotion. I don't care if it was a strategy, or what... I really don't, because there is a bigger problem here; and it's not with Hillary, it's with the voters.

This reeks of the "I want a president I can have a beer with" syndrome the repugnicans had with bush.

You don't elect someone because the mainstream media is picking on them. You don't elect someone because they break down and you feel bad for them.
You don't elect soemone because they are a woman.
You don't elect someone because they are a man.
You don't elect someone because they are black.

You are supposed to elect someon because they are going to work their butts off to do everything they can to serve the people. Not half the people... ALL the people.

What we did yesterday was a mistake for that reason alone. She won that primary out of... for lack of better words "pity"

We don't need someone who wins on "pity." We need someone who is going to fight for us.

Now, if you believe that Hillary is that candidate... Then by ALL MEANS, you should vote for her. If you think it is Obama, vote for him........

We need to quit being manipulated, because whether it is being done by candidates, mainstream media, pundits, etc, they are all trying to do it to us.

So just stop, think, and make sure your vote goes to the BEST candidate for the RIGHT reasons.

4. You're on a rampage today!
I hope you feel better by the end of the day. I assume you are livid that Hillary won the primary after you were sure Obama had won. OK. A lot of us were surprised. There are still 48 states left to go! Let's not get ahead of ourself - nobody is an ignoramus about voting - even if you can't seem to comprehend why your candidate lost. Relax - there is plenty of time left.

5. Please provide your proof of the "pity" vote.
It is not unreasonable to me that a fine, articulate, woman with a demonstrated grasp of the issues might win a few primaries. Was it "pity" that put a tearing Bush into office? This is what is wrong with the voters: there has to be another reason other than being, perhaps, the best candidate in the minds of the voters for HC to win. This woman has spent most of her adult life in service to causes she believed in. She gets no credit whatsoever for her accomplishments. Because she is HC she must be all "fluff" insincere, riding on Bill's coattails (even though he is hated more than she). Hillary was serving others long ago when she wasn't in the public eye. But I guess that isn't good enough. It's far better to be a drunken, crazed druggie with a dad with lots of money and power to pull you up by your bootstraps. That will get you elected to two terms. And if you happen to be married to a man who came from lowly poor dysfunctional family who embraced learning, and who is genuinely compassionate, who went on against all odds to become a successful two-term President, you just have to be despised. God knows, the husband did not deserve to win those elections..common white trailer trash (as Ann Coulter describes). We all know that the most despised people are those who actually live out the American dream and who make a difference.
