There’s no crying in baseball!
Hillary Clinton apparently got all weepy on Monday, and the narcissism bled through like a shit stain on white shorts. Kinda like trying to stuff an unanticipated turd down the drain in the shower — ya actually gotta step on it. But wait — did anyone actually see tears? Once again, a pre-engineered event in which she couldn’t produce an actual human emotion. Shocking (yawn).
Trust me; it’s a ploy. She likely called up Willie J and asked: “ya think it worked?”
I really don’t think it did, Hillary. It’s a gardening trowelful (not even a shovelful!) of “too little too late.” Because it’s like this:
As I wrote in a prior comment, Hillary’s about as warm as the average American Standard urinal in a movie theatre. And the electorate can actually suss that out. The Hard A-Port believe Hillary’s insufficiently Left. Young Demorats can sense her “old school” insincerity. And “old school feminism” ain’t playing too well either.
Let’s be blunt: Hillary’s goose is cooked. Like Howard Dean and his “eeeeeyaaaggh!” scream, she stepped into the undignified column with her pandering “sniffles” — hell, I can’t even write the word “tears.”
She’s losing. She’s pissed. She’s frightened. But moreover, she’s Hillary Rodham Clinton and she is fucking DUE this race and it is OWED to her because she’s a Clinton and as we all know, everyone loves a Clinto. . .
Ooops. That’s right. Everyone loves Bill. Sounds like a TV show.
Let me guess; I’ll place a palm to my forehead — I predict — I predict — she’ll indicate she failed because (wait, here it comes) — she’s a woman! And we’re all sexists and assholes!
Her ego, her narcissism should trump everything. She thinks she’s placed herself out on a limb, giving her all, sacrificing everything for the Good of the Country. Oh, woe is Hillary!
Really?
How about the average US soldier in Iraq, Hillary? How about the soldier with a wife and kids waiting for him at home, in his 14th month of a 15-month deployment? Wearing 60 pounds of armor and equipment in 119-degree heat every day? Hoping like hell he won’t get snuffed on his last week in-country?
If Life doesn’t go so well for you on the Campaign Trail, and this is how you act (particularly after you’ve done your damnedest to ensure you’re the Quintessential Ice Queen), then what would you do, how would you react to the most recent poll in Pakistan, revealed today, that 90% of the population wants Sharia law?
And today is the first Presidential Primary in New Hampshire. A few thereafter, then 20 more states (including my Fornicalia) on February 5th.
Prediction for New Hampshire? Pretty easy:
– Hillary gets her ass handed to her by Barack Hussein Obama.
– McCain comes out Number One on the GOP side. Romney gets clobbered. Mitt, like Edwards, is too slick and pretty for his own good. Rudy just waits for Florida.

I don’t know if she’ll be out quickly or quietly but she does, unfortunately, have an ace to play yet and that’s the automatically selected “superdelegates” that play a much bigger role in the DEM than they do the GOP. If she is reasonably close she could conceivably strongarm them into voting for her at the convention.
Poor Hillary…
Sympathy can be found in the dictionary between shit and syphilis, and since her old man is none other than ‘Slick Willie’, she probably actually has syphilis…
Most certainly yap clap.
I can’t say that I mind seeing the Ice Queen upset, even if it is a feeble attempt at a publicity stunt.
Hillary is either on the verge of a breakdown, and in that case she has NO business being in control of this nation, OR, she’s a terrible actress and her ‘bit’ came across in a way that she and her handlers did NOT intend…
The last thing we need is a President that BREAKS under pressure, it’s not a good thing to hear how the President had a nervous breakdown because the dinner ware wasn’t set to HER liking…
And if this was an attempt to put a human face on Hillary, it was in very bad taste, I personally don’t think she has that much emotion in her, and if she IS that emotional, well, she doesn’t need to be running America…
I can see it now, national crisis in progress, the entire cabinet and the Joint Chiefs are assembled and Hillary has a moment, and it lasts just long enough that if affects the entire nation, her moment of emotion opposed to her moment of needed decision, no thanks, testosterone every time!!
ditto Fred,
who wants a whiny potus? or a phony one? this is a turn off no matter the reason.
Hillary’s fantasy US is meeting up with the real US and there appears to be a disconnect… so many ‘good ideas’ to inflict on the Nation and folks just don’t seem to be buying it as they look at their pocketbooks and realize they would like to have *some* money left for themselves.
Watching Hillary reminds me of Obama’s friend in Kenya who *also* feels he is owed an election. There seems to be a lot of this ‘inevitability’ swirling around Democrats… one wonders if the subject of *why* they deserve to be ‘inevitable’ will be brought up. Not that HRC could bring up BO’s mob ties in Chitown or his association with al Qaeda supporters. I am *sure* that is beyond her…
Clinton = dirty, untraceable tricks.
Faked or attempted tears aside, the last thing I think this country needs is a carpetbagging, flip-flopping leader. The sheeple of New York may have somehow bought into her vision of being a leader of that state, but I don’t think the US as a whole is going to buy her act.
I don’t know that she’s faking the tears, BZ. I suppose I believe the tears are for real because they really make her look bad. It’s okay to cry because you feel sorry for someone else, but to cry because things aren’t going your way in an election… shame on her! Perhaps she’s menopausal.

Gayle, your point was the most poignant: people don’t mind if you “cry” for others and their states — Willie J. crying because he “felt our pain,” etc. But to cry out of your OWN self-pity? Gimme a fuckin’ break; THAT’s what’s nauseating.

I can’t stand that women, and can’t see how people pick her, or empty shell Obama, who reminds me of a snake oil salesman… guess I could never be a Dem … Thank God!
We should never under-estimate the political and financial power of Pathos. Hysteria Clinton has raked in $89 million in donations compared to say $2.3 million for Huck. The only way Boy Obama can compete with that is with some reinforcement from Chair-sistah Oprah.
