1 - He starts tearing up when reminiscing about the early days on the trail. I sense it as it’s all about him sensing his “movement” is coming to an end.
2 - He recovers a bit and then at about the 17:00 mark the crowd starts chanting “Four more years”. If you watch him closely, you can see that he fights going into full on weep mode. My sense is that this is his narcissism kicking in. He’s thinking to himself that this is the final time he will receive all of his adorer’s idolatry.
3 - Moochelle’s intro is nothing more than a postmortem of his one and done term. Her voice is trembling throughout as it appears that she comes close to getting emotional several times.
Fact is, they know the gig is up as today Mitt Romney is elected as the 45th president by a wide margin.
The crying tape:
