Did the tears work? Hillary is saying her thank yous to a state that loves women leaders. I think she won because of this and because her supporters knew she had to while Obama's supporters got lazy. Some might have even voted for McCain because they were so afraid of Huckabee winning the nomination and they figured they had a sure bet based on the polls.
Does anyone else find everything she says disingenuous? In the process, she found her own voice? That is what she just said, but I don't think I have ever seen anyone who knows less about herself. Hillary knows policy. She knows politics, but she doesn't know who she is.
And if the tears were authentic, then I am happy for her and pleased that she can not just feel emotion, but show it. But the fact is people are questioning whether the tears are put on. That in itself is a problem. We have become cynical after watching hours of election coverage, but are we really at the point of questioning tears? Apparently we are when they come from her.
I will be honest. I don't think she has the ability to win the Democrat nomination. And I know she can't win the general election. America will not vote for someone they question every move. The poll numbers tonight show the voters like Obama better, and I think that will win out in the end.
