Marianne Pernold was called by Clinton's campaign ahead of time to go to the coffee shop in Ft. Smith New Hampshire (older woman-democrat). She was invited by Terry Norelli of Hillary's campaign. Questioner thinks that Hillary was sincere because the question was personal. Marianne says that immediately after the crying, Hillary resumed the political face.
"Marianne Pernold tells 630 WMAL's Chris Core she truly believes that Senator Hillary Clinton's emotional response to her question at a meeting in New Hampshire was genuine. Pernold asked Clinton how she managed to keep going during the rough campaign, and Clinton's somewhat-teary response has been credited by some pundits for her victory in the Granite state Tuesday night. Pernold tells 630 WMAL she still voted for Barack Obama, becuase she had attended one of his rallies earlier in the week, and she claims Obama's stirring speech brought HER to tears!"
Ouch, thighs!!
Remember this..................
Massachusetts Sen. John Kerry burst into tears while campaigning in New Hampshire in 2004 when an unemployed mother spoke about how hard it is educating her kids. Mr. Kerry choked up and had to wipe tears from his eyes. He won the New Hampshire primary and the Democratic nomination.
That is true and I had not thought of it. I was afraid of some other method you might have used.
Every time I see Chelsea I ask myself, “How many drinks did Hillary have to buy Web Hubble?”
I think McCarthy lost in 1968—but did surprisingly well for a write-in, leading to Bobby Kennedy entering the race, and LBJ announcing he wouldn’t run for another term.
Or whether there is a frankfurter in the carpet?
The upside to the loss, for Obama, is that he is now less likely to be Ron Brown'd.
Yikes! As the child of a sitting President, you think she would have gotten /some/ orthodonture!
“I think McCarthy lost in 1968”
He lost the popular vote, but won more delegates because of the regional nature of the delegate choice.
The tears/emotion was NOT fake. It just had nothing to do with the words coming from her mouth. She was emotional bec she saw her entitlement to coronation slipping from her cold heartless fingers.
I just barfed up every meal I ever ate thinking about that.
Somehow I thought this seal seemed appropriate.
CROCODILE TEARS... just like her husband at the Ron Brown funeral.
Both?
Only John Edwards’ hairdresser knows for sure...
Bill would be a benchwarmer among that crowd.
Has anyone asked Mrs Pernold is she was provided her tear-jerking question for Hillary, or if it was genuinely her own inquiry?
