All it takes is for Hillary Clinton to manipulate voters' emotions with her calculated "crying." I'm really disappointed. Some people are idiots.

4. Maybe
I've never been a huge Obama supported, but the way Hillary's support bounced just after her feigned crying voice - that's sad.

2. She didn't cry. NH voters aren't pushovers anyway (especially after Nader screwed them in 2000)

3. You don't seriously think Hillary is winning NH because she...
choked up (not cried) a bit? Honestly, I watched the video, and if it hadn't been hyped so strongly, the so-called "crying" was easy to miss. I was expecting bawling, I got a little catch in the throat.

I don't think it was "calculated," but even if it were, I highly doubt it would affect the primary.

6. It's only one primary in one white bread relatively conservative state

And it's not over yet - even there. Most of Manchester/Nashua/Concord is still out.

Michael Whouley can't work every state.

8. It's not over yet, however.. perhaps it's a little backlash
New Hampshire people like to be independant. Obama, well not him so much, but his supporters and the press are getting a little creepy about the whole thing. Too pushy and gloating.
People don't like that. What you hate in Hillary, you are doing yourself.

10. I don't think that she is currently leading because she got teary eyed.
She has real merits.
