Compare and contrast: Same TV reporter approaches Hillary Clinton and Marco Rubio
The American Thinker ^ | 4-17-15 | Thomas Lifson

Posted on 04/17/2015 6:54:20 AM PDT by afraidfortherepublic

The following contrasting videos should be enough to chill the bones of every Democrat sensibly worried about how good a candidate Hillary Clinton will be. Dan Calabrese, of Herman Cain’s CainTV.com website brings us the two videos of the same TMZ reporter walking up to both candidates at an airport as they arrive.

First, here is Marco Rubio:

All smiles and affability, Sure, the reporter is not hostile, but anyone could get annoyed at questions about a spouse's past. Instead, Rubio laughs, makes a joke at his own expense, and comes across as a totally likable guy.

Hillary, not so much:

LOL!

Marco Rubio’s video: 1:29

Hillary’s video: 0:21

Not a word spoken by Hillary while Marco talks about ideas, his wife, and his musical tastes. If there isn’t a contrast here, I don’t know what is.

Hillary just hates people and wants to rule them.

WHOA!!! The idiot vote pays attention to TMZ. But I am sure this guy is going to have to grovel to her highness and beg for a whiff of her pantsuit. I hope his resume is up to date.

He walks up to her talking about emails. What did he think she was going to do?

She has far more reason to hide from the media spotlight than does Rubio ... so it’s an imperative that she not speak and just walk away as a grinning idiot.

I'm not saying that he's my choice in the primaries, because he's not.

But in this short off-the-cuff "interview" he is charming and really likable. Rattles off some stuff about what-I-assume-is contemporary music with some authenticity. Makes a joke at himself regarding his NFL Cheerleader wife...

It's not as though the TMZ crowd are high-information voters, and I bet they just ate this up.

Rubio is in that lump of candidates who are not my first choice, but I would vote for in a general election.

Hillary! Is it true that you are totally deaf to middle class voters’ wishes?

Why, answer in full and truthfully - what else do Democrat's do? /sarc

Definitely worth the watch. Take a moment and study Hillary’s face. Look closely. Her expression is plastered on and it does not change except for a few chomps on some cud when the reporter asks his question. If this is the trip where she had to fly commercial to appear as just another shlub can you imagine the rage in her heart at that moment? Look at her chew on that cud. That is the face of pure anger. Anyone who has ever been in a fight knows that look right before fists start fighting. That nervous chew of gum while you are deciding to punch the guy or walk away.

Here’s the queen bee of queen bees. The nasty phony angry queen bee just had to spend a few hours with the filthy degenerate peasants, and breathe that filthy air, on a COMMERCIAL AIRCRAFT!!! The queen bee does not ride commercial. How I wish I were a fly on the wall when she unloaded her anger on Huma. And before she could even get another drink in her some reporter DARES to address the queen without permission and pre-screened questions.

The point is that the approach was not the same and the comparison is thus invalid. I have no more love for Hillary than anybody, but this is clearly a reverse bias in the reporter’s approach.

David Guetta and Nicki Minaj are two very popular “artists.” I personally enjoy some of Guetta’s electronic work, but Minaj is just an abrasive “rapper” with autotune.

The youth will eat this up, for sure. One almost wonders if TMC is shilling for Rubio. Like I said, the youth do NOT want Hillary.

Wait til the Mob ships her Warren's supply of Groupons for student loan forgiveness. Millenials will turn out in record numbers.

I disagree. It illustrates her inability to think on her feet.
This was an opportunity to respond to low info TMZ viewers, and exposed her strategy to ignore the popular media. Big mistake.

I like some of the comments at the site:
Hillary Clinton photographed at an airport. Some comments:
How did she walk by that ATM and not try to get some money out of it?
That ATM apparently only allows withdrawals of one’s own money....
It is not directly connected to the Clinton Foundation.

I heard that flowers die when she walks by.

Every time Hillary cackles, a demon gets its horns.

She was tired from holding onto her broom.
