Does anyone really want this unstable emotional pendulum as leader of the greatest power on Earth?!

I LOVE YOU HILARY!! YOU ARE MY HERO!! I'M CRYING NOW TOO!! HILARY, AS THE YOUNG KIDS SAY…………………….SHAKE THOSE HATERS OFF.

You are every thing a woman should be STRONG, POWERFUL, SENSITIVE, GIVING, LOVING and so much more. CRY MY SISTA, SHED TEARS OF JOY. SMILE AND THE WORLD SMILES WITH YOU. CRY AND ALL YOUR SISTA"S GOT YOUR BACK.

GET READY JEALOUS HATERS……………….HERE COMES HILARY!!!!

Cry Hilary Cry!! anyone with a human heart has cried at some point in their life. That's what 's wrong with our country. If this country had enough people that cried and had real human emotions we wouldn't have wars and so much violence. Is this God's country or man's? Men aren't as hard as they claim.

I loved the "I try to make time for those SPECIAL things…like exercise…and PIZZA".
my god!

What a sad display of desperatly appealing for the youth vote!

pathetic.

RightyTighty, now you know how powerful and brilliant Hillary is, Hillary made me to be proud of Democrat. Thanks.

ron, ct, have you met Hillary and heard what she wants from her? Or are you a prognosticator? Please read her book, LIVING HISTORY first, If I am not sure I wouldn't speak.

WE SUPPORT HILLARY '08

She's the only one who can "roll up her sleeves and clean up the mess" left by the GOP — NOT dreamer boy!!

Or vote Biden or Richardson b/c God save our country if the newbie gets elected - who isn't even wise enough to realize what he DOESN'T KNOW yet; let alone play pin-the-tail-on-the-donkey in the Oval Office –> He clearly could have waited until 2012 or 2016. He's only 47, but he's such a baby that he's demanding to be King now Sadly the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Senator Obama is certainly NOT!! AND Oprah should stick with her own life and hawking her Book Club (which she can't even get right all the time either).

Senator Obama wants to raise the minimum age (again) to receive maximum Social Security benefits! Have not our parents and our elders waited long enough?! How long will we have to wait??

AND NO MORE having to explain to our children - why it's (NOT) OKAY for the President Of Our Nation to do drugs!! It's time to take back our country and make America proud again.

JUST SAY NO - TO OBAMA IN '08

ps - to all the anti-Hillary club members here PLZ go play on your own sites, it seems you are turning off potential voters and Independents for ALL CANDIDATES by your constant trivial & trite drivel. Do you all pat yourselves on the back at the end of the day for a job well done?! Do you EVEN have jobs? Highly doubtful…

Hillary makes me proud to be a Republican, and a man..

I agree with Tom Dedham; Romney's question was not planned and the tears were not scripted, we've all gotten emotional about our religion at some time.

ROMNEY 2008!!!

Boy, this is better than watching Desperate Housewives. At least Hillary can act. No offense, Teri Hatcher. Ouch!

I wish Dr. Condeleezza Rice would run for president some day as Hillary is giving women a really bad name.

Hillary has no idea what intelligence or leadership is. Bill and Hillary are nothing but snake-oil sales force in D.C. They are the laughing stock of America and I am not even Republican.

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
(REPEAT)

It's funny how the VERY FIRST post on this story sort of sums it up perfectly.

Seriously.. Hilary wants America to foot the bill because Bill cheated on her.

Folks, let’s all cheat on our partners and promise them the Presidency as a consolation price when they threaten to leave us, and then make the American people pay for our lust by voting our partners in office.

When we realize that the American people is not buying in, let’s train them to cry to get the American people to vote for them out of pity…

The more red an area, the better the people are, the more kind, caring, unselfish and giving they are. It has nothing to do with religion, liberal democrats for the most part are nasty, mean, hateful, selfish, dishonest people. You seem like the average NYC lib, for your sake I hope that those bible belters are wrong about there being a god."

Having lived in upstate NY, so-called "Hillary Country" and in the "red state" South, I have to agree with your comments.

People in blue states are so negative about everything. Conspiracies are everywhere, the government is no good, the world is coming to an end, and anyone who makes a buck or two is the devil himself!

I think it is because they smoke too much pot.

There are still some very good liberals around but they are very few and far between.

What once was the ideology of peace and love is now the most hateful ideology America has to offer.

Liberals in blue areas pretend that the rest of the nation is filled with bible thumpers who want all gays killed and want to force feed their religion upon every American. The reality is that these people in the middle of the nation are the most kind, thoughtful, fair, honest, and giving people ANY nation has ever had.

I hate religion but I'll side with the religious right since the hate that defines most liberal Democrats is the most disgusting part of America today. Hillary really does seem to be the candidate of the hateful lib, although the fact that John Edwards has destroyed the lives of many people with frivolous lawsuits is awfully attractive to the average liberal Democrat. Most of them love to see someone who has worked hard have their money taken for no honest reason, and have the recipient be some druggie, liar who doesn’t deserve one cent of it. Also, the biggest racists in America are liberal whites against white people, if you have attended a North East University then you already know that. Just remember some libs are great people, to say they all are the same is being awfully lib yourself.

Please note, CNN, that beginning with this story, the next 7 stories posted are either pro-Hillary, or relating to an attack from a Hillary supporter against another candidate. It would be nice if you would at least pretend others are running for the nomination and give them a little coverage.

Had the comments been impromptu and Hillary caught off guard by these comments at an event not by design then the situation would be much different. Instead the event is staged and choreographed, which makes it come across very fake.

And for those saying it is gender bias to hold this against her because she is a woman, you are working off of a false accusation. I have the same opinion of Mitt when he said he cried as well. Friends and family, as well as religious faith, are very personal private issues. To make a public display for the benefit of gaining votes is to devalue those personal issues. It all comes across as contrived and phony.

Posted By David, Gilbert Arizona : December 18, 2007 1:48 pm

I agree with your first point totally David, it was a planned and purposeful event for her to SHOW EMOTION.

The Romney point is a little different as he was responding to an unscripted question and was totally off the cuff.

Could it have been done on purpose, yes, it could have, but he had NO idea the question was coming so he could get the benefit of the doubt if you were so inclined.

Her campaign admits that they are using a STATEGY to make her seem softer.

It'a a little different.

Greg in Phoenix, AZ– Your post is the worst one here, and I've not even read all of them! You need to be careful making such horrible accusations about anyone you do not know personally. Do you know of a horrendous act Hillary has committed for you to call her evil or do you just lack intelligence? Go to confession.

Dang Doug, Ding.

After considering your comment, I realized there is some truth to it. Not entirely sure about the reason why so I'll have to give that some more thought. Nice, interresting post. Good job.

C'mon Clintonistas,

It's not because we men are afraid of Hillary the woman getting more power. It's because she scripted a tear on demand that makes us laugh at her attempt to show her human side.

Why does she even have to show her human side? When have we ever seen Clinton cry. She didn't cry when her husband was cheating.

So the one time she picks to cry on national television is when she is hurting in the polls and needs to show her softer side; hence, the reason people call her a phony.

It has nothing to do with being sexist. Please posts before calling people sexist for complaining about her being a phoney.

Superimposing your own false ideas on the truth is HRC does to create something out of nothing as a smoke screen. It seems the die hard Clintonistas that come on here to defend her scripted tears have indeed graduated from Clinton 101 as well.

Give Billary Clinton his/her due; they have their die hard base actually believing their own drivel.

Hahahahahahah! Dolts.

If I was a Republican, I'd dream of running against Hillary! She's self-destructing!

"Hey Doug…since when did N.J. become a "Red State?" Boy, the republicans sure are smart about their politics."

? Oh wait I see, I never said NJ was a red state but since you are a liberal democrat you cannot resist the urge to lie about me and claim I said it. Jesus is to some Republicans what lies and dishonesty is to a majority of liberal democrats like you. Sorry, I'll side with the religious over the hateful, dishonest, socialist lib scum.

See BR I live in an area that is 85% lib so I know what your ilk is all about. I have also lived in red areas too, so I know what they are about.

Hillary is a nice compassonate human being….one good quality, among others, to be the next president.

The question becomes, Why is it important for Hillary to let us know that friends and family support her what value does this bring to bear? I mean really isn't that what friends and family are suppose to do? - Ok now for this scene I want you to mention the time I saved your pathetic life and….ACTION!

"The libs here who are talking about how she is human and have a heart are exactly the type of people who car salesmen dream of at night.

Nah, I don't buy it at all, these libs are just as mean, cold, heart-less, selfish, and rude as she is, but then again that is what it means to be a democrat these days. Just spend some time in a real blue area like Boston or NYC, then go to the middle of the nation in some nice red area. Observe how people treat you in both places, then decide your vote on that. If you do so let me just say thanks for voting republican."

Hey Doug…since when did N.J. become a "Red State?" Boy, the republicans sure are smart about their politics.

"I could respect people alot more if they just came right out and said they personally don't want a woman in the White House instead of launching criticism about everything the woman does."

Posted By HILLARYLOVER, NY, NY : December 17, 2007 4:55 pm

I personally don't want this woman to be president. There! now I' said it…

Dear IHNCNH,

It's time to put down the pipe kid. How pathetic is it that people have to resort to "If you don't vote for Obama, you're a bigot." Yeah, that's not a "fear" tactic of it's own type. Next up, not agreeing with Al Sharpton will be "racist."

What a MASQUERADE !!! Once again the Clintonites are showing that they are nothing but political animals. And tehrefore take us for infants who could be manipulated and moved by mere crocodile tears- Seeing Hillary crying makes me sick— I feel for her friends- With friends like Hillary and Bill you don't need enemies. I hope the Clintonites learn the hard way that WE, the People already know- Their acts are from the old book. Comes Jan 3rd we'll make them regret to try to play us for a sucker

She teared up, because she had family and loved ones share lovely things about her. How does that make her or it fake. You people are so harsh on here, when most of you only hate her because shes a strong women get over it.

The big 'show' and fake part was having a parade of all of these folks from your past talking about how nice you are. Where's Art Linkletter at? He should have been called to host this episode of "This is Your Life."

I don't hate her because she's a strong women (shouldn't that be singular?), I don't like her because she and her husband go around lying day after day and expect people to believe them. That's an insult to everyone's intelligence (if, indeed they possess some).

Those not lucid enough to catch on continue to express views such as the following:

Hillary is a great leader. She is intelligent and strong and has awesome leadership skills. She will make a great president and is a great role model for young women. Go Hillary!!!

Have a great day!

how the world has changed. When Muskie cried in New Hampshire, he put himself out of contention but today we embrace both Clinton and Romney for their emotional responses. Who will cry next?

"What I try to do every day is figure out how to help somebody,”
And every day it is herself that she comes up with. Todays way to help herself was to shed some tears to make herself look compassionate because she has the air of a self centered, self serving, lying politician.
If it walks like a duck, it quacks like a duck, it swims like a duck, it's a duck.
Todays polls show she is the #1 anti choice person around for president. meaning, that more people will vote against her than any other candidate.

Thanks America, I was beginning to think people were falling for her transparent attempts to use us for her own ends AGAIN.

ANYONE BUT HILLARY '08

Save the tears until after Iowa Hillary, America sees right through you.

Obama 08

All I can say is that Hillary is doing a very good job on her campaign. Hillary shows her commitment, determination for change. Hillary's experienced and knowledge are showing every time I see her talk on her campaign. People get to know you already Mrs. clinton. They are seeing it. You are there for us to rebuild this country that we love so much. I am looking forward to the first woman president of the United States of America.

Of course Hillary is "cold and calculated." Can you imagine the reaction if she showed emotion? She'd never be in office. She'd be seen as "hysterical."

Does anyone talk about male candidates being cold? If this was a man, he'd probably be seen as running a very smart campaign.

She managed to win over the votes of upstate New York Republicans, and let me tell you, that's not easy. She did it through tireless research, meeting personally with people.

There's a lot of people who can't stand the Clinton's, but there's a lot of people who are very loyal to them. I'm in between, but I know one thing. I was payed more for the same job 10 years ago than I am payed now. I can't afford insurance. I can't afford my rent. And I'm not even poor, I'm middle-class. I'm not handing my vote over to anyone immediately, I'll let them fight it out. I think Hillary can handle it.

Regardless of who is the next president, Republican or Democrat, it can only go up from here, so cheer up folks, the long wait is ending, Bush is finally leaving. ANYTHING is better than him. Even Republicans are hearing the message of global warming now. Could it be we all have some needs in common?

Don't know if we need to see that side.
Keep it covered.

Hillary is a great leader. She is intelligent and strong and has awesome leadership skills. She will make a great president and is a great role model for young women. Go Hillary!!!

I love how the lib-bots have been programmed by Moore-on.org.

If one says something negative about Hillary, then they are a sexist!!!

If one says something negative about Obama, then they are a racist!!!

Ask yourself why the libs do things like this? It is obvious that they don't want to debate, they want to silence anyone who is not marching lock step to their ideology by calling people sexist and racist. They don't want you to know that they are out to take away your freedoms and money with their quasi-socialism agenda.

When you hear the lib then talk about Craig, Rice, and Ann Coulter, you see that the words of homophobic, racist, and sexist that they try to call republicans and others who think for themselves, really applies to the lib more so than the people they are hating on for simply thinking for themsleves, which as the facts show is the most anti-liberal thing a person can do.

spare me. this is so obviously a planned strategy.

Hillary doesn't wear her religion on her shirt sleeve because that's reserved for her emotions..

I don't have a problem with Hillary having friends that care about her. I don't have a problem with Hillary having a softer side either. What I do find disingenuous about this event is that Hillary has to make a public display of her softer side. That's what makes the entire episode appear contrived, that she held an event specifically to show she can cry on queue.

What I find most fake about the entire Hillary campaign is her supporters. I read post after post about Hillary's compassion and that she is a woman making history. That entire mindset is a crock when you compare Hillary Clinton with Elizabeth Dole.

Elizabeth has worked in two different administrations as Secretary of Transportation and as Secretary of Labor. Elizabeth has spent years advocating the Red Cross and Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Mrs. Dole is currently a Senator from North Carolina. If anyone has or had the most experience to be President of the United States it was Elizabeth Dole. And yet Mrs. Dole had to pull out of the race for President because of lack of support. So where were all the women wanting a woman president then? And you all decide to choose Hillary instead, that Hillary is a wonderful woman? How much further from the truth can you get?

You people touting a great woman president really missed the boat on that one. It makes the entire woman president argument comical to the point of hillarity.

Leo you are absolutely right. "I am certainly no Hillary hater and I really don't like seeing these 'extreme' posts against her. All they do is make those who love her, love her even more." If you wish to get negative toward Hillary then show some evidence. Talk policies, issues, etc - yeah but not Obama. He's all scripted. Anyone but OBAMA. 2nd Choice - BIDEN.

Women, women, women. It's because she's a woman. I play basketball and I'll tell you that if you show emotion your opponent will attack that because they see that you're the weak link. I'll apply this to the elections, if you show emotions or show a sign of weakness you'll get attacked. Hillary she cried and tried to seem like an american Mother Teresa by saying "What I try to do every day is figure out how to help somebody,You can try to help somebody every single day, and I’ve tried to do that as a public servant, as an activist, and now as a senator." Foreign people (especially those Radical muslim fools that already have no respct for women) will see that she is the weak link if she shows weakness she lets the whole team down. Why because that leaves the team(America) open for attack.I'm not sexist I just don't think a woman is a good choice at this time, because of our present president at the time has made us enemies with the middle east.

"What I try to do every day is figure out how to help somebody,” - Hillary.

That is the big problem. A president has to help the nation, not just somebody poor or a lobbyist.

Perhaps Hillary will do a great job working for Red Cross or being a first lady again.

Being a leader requires a clear and fair mind for all. Giving taxpayers' money away isn't helping. Helping somebody get off their feet and start walking again is real help.

If you don't have a vision for the country and you concentrate on individuals to help, you don't fit to be president. That is due to the lack of executive experience.

Hillary doesn't know the difference in job functions between the first lady and the president.

Hillary might have done her senate job the same way - helping somebody every day, and that may be the reason why she is not a significant senator. In essence, she doesn't know how to lead people.

If Hillary gets elected, she won 't be the only one emotional!! The whole country will be after she and Billary reveal their true selves!! Get ready to take it in the shorts, America! Just bend over!

What a hack! Through all of the attacks leveled by her campaign on Obama, he has remained unflappable, upright and steadfast. Contrast that to her walking around like a lunatic, changing tack every day at the wimsy of the polls or rumors in the media. What a sideshow!

Have a great day!

She already has a Grammy.Is she trying for the Emmy's and Oscar's too.What a fake and a fraud.She is without a doubt the most dangerous person in America.Doesn't ANYBODY remember that she started out as a Republican?
She campaigned for Sen. Everret Dirksen of Illinois.
She is so much in the hand of the Communist Chinese government that she should be wearing the Mao suit that they all used to wear before they became "westernized". Actually that is what those pants suits she wears all the time reminds me of.

So all these years of being a "tough as nails" woman and 2 weeks before the Iowa caucus we're supposed to believe she is "soft". Ha!

For those who need a reason to vote AGAINST HILLARY - look to oh 10 to 20 reasons, starting with all the cover-up
from the stock trades to the dirty deals - GO OBAMA!!!

Tears, the COUNTRY is crying out loud for CHANGE - we can no longer be the
UNITED STATES of CORPORATE AMERICA -

Time for real CHANGE - OBAMA 2008!

"I am woman. Hear me sob?"

Sorry. I'm not buying it. Maybe out of someone else, but not out of this woman. Nothing, NOTHING associated with the Clintons is ever unscripted or accidental.

Surprising that from her college radical left origins Hillary is not vehement about immigration and industries moving their manufacturing operations to Asia. Immigration is all about exploitation and as a socialist Hillary should be speaking loudly about multinational corporations in the U.S. exploiting Mexicans and other Lations for low wage, no benefit, no retirement, jobs here in the U.S. That immigrants are pushing American economic status down and will lead ultimately to the povertization of the United States. Or maybe that is what Hillary wants- a worker's paradise where we are all working for meger wages of "the man" like in the former soviet states. The big box stores are the plantations of the new mellenium. We- white, yellow, black, and red are becoming the chattel of the corporate plantation owners.

I must admit, the republican administration will leave us one unforgettable legacy…the nasty and ugly division of this country that they have propogated. The comments of some of these folks are downright disgusting, and those people still seem to enjoy attacking "non-believers" with hateful comments. Remember the days when this country was at least attempting to work together? I've seen many postings claiming that "liberals" are the enemy! Now thatkind of comment is pathetic, and should be something to be VERY concerned about.

The only thing she's proving to me is that she should be an actress. Perhaps Fred Thompson can get her a job when she loses in the primary?

She and Mitt Romney ought to get together for a phony cry-fest on television perhaps.

However they will never eclipse Jimmy Swaggert's display back many years ago. That was one for the ages!

Oh pleeze, she cannot erase her past,
she is the biggest fraud on the planet!
To bring these phonies on the stage, shows she is desperate, does she think we are naive, out here.
As the men rightly say, "She reminds them of their ex-wife."

Ahhh yes…time for the "warm and fuzzy side" of Hillary. I was wondering when she would be "introduced" in this capacity. You trained her well Bill.

"I try to not fall for the media-spin on this stuff, but I can't help but think the whole "visibly emotional" thing is just a charade. If her campaign managers told her to be firm and stoic, then that's exactly what we'd see. I want a politician who is genuine and authentic. For me, that person is Obama."

I think I'm forced to agree with Lisa (for the most part). I am a huge supporter of Senator Clinton and her husband, but can't seem to wrap my support around the "soft side" stuff. I'm sure she has a softer side, I'm just wishing it all wasn't so choreographed. Be yourself Hillary, that all we want.

Regarding Obama, there is nothing genuine about him. He wants to be President of the United States and isn't willing to pay his dues first. Don't buy the load of crap he's trying to sell.

Man, it gives me a chill to see what a chameleon this woman is. She'll be anything that she thinks anyone wants her to be, as long as she thinks it will help her agenda.

As much as I'd love a female president, I'm not willing to sacrifice integrity for gender in the next person sitting in the oval office. Those of you who are so hungry for a woman president, have you REALLY looked at her leadership skills? Is she REALLY the woman you want in the White House? Or are you simply willing to sacrifice everything else that is important for that position just to be able to say MADAM president?

Sure the campaign trail is tough - physically and emotionally. But does anyone think it's a coincidence that her tears come with a day or two of Obama catching her in the polls in Iowa?

Scary……..

"All over the world for a woman's intelligence and smartness is undervalued by society in different ways. Hillary suffers same reason. It's not she doesn't has soft side; matriarchal society hates women who tend to be strong.

Hillary is 200% times better than any democrat and republican but matters of her gender that's all.

Hillary for president'08!"

Is this English?^^

Her eyes are programmed to consult with a pollster before tearing up.

*whispers* "So do I cry now? No? But they just said…oh…now? Got the ammonia ready? We won't have very long to smear it under my eyes."

I'll be crying if she gets elected:-(

Hillary wants us all to be a part of her disfunctional family..

You know, it never stops! has any of you seen the footage? this is real, everyone of these candidates is stressed, tired and emotional. Sen. clinton has still to miss a vote in the senate, it is stomping every day, that takes a toll. have some respect too. this is not Jimmy Swaggart pleading to the congregation, this is a person that is loved by many and is thankful to see them out there for her. Incredible!

Posted By Danny G. Boca Raton, FL : December 17, 2007 5:18 pm

Danny, first of all, learn correct grammar, spelling and punctuation. Next, if you think ANY of these politicians (left AND right) care about you or your plights, you better pull your head out of the sand. They care about one thing - power. They want it and the only way to get it is to try and sucker us into voting for them. Hillary Clinton is as fake as Mitt Romney, etc., etc. Wake up and smell the coffee. This is a woman that will do anything to be POTUS.

The problem is the Hilary we know is the one that we don't support. The Hilary we know failed to read the National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq, yet still supported the war; now she claims if she had known then what she knows now she wouldn't have supported Bush's and Cheney's war. The Hilary we know keeps taking about 35 years of experience, yet she has served only one full term in office. If I used by husband's experience on my resume, I'd be automatically disqualified for consideration for submitting a fraudulent resume. The Hilary we know totally disregarded the United States Constitution when she voted for the Patriot Act–not once, but twice as she voted for its reauthorization. The Hilary we know talks about being a Washington insider which great influence; if that were the case, then why hasn't she used that influence to get the health care package veto overridden for America's poor children? Saying you have influence and demonstrating you have influence is like night and day. Obviously she doesn't have the influence to get any thing done. She's a junior Senator with nothing to show for year actual paltry few years in the Senate. She has big name recognition, but not for her work, but the work of her husband. So the Hilary we know we don't support.

FAKE!!!!!!

If this made the news it must have been a slow news day.

There sure are a lot of ReDUMlicans on here trashing Hillary. My My My, are you that scared of a Women running this Country. So she had a moment. Man, what do you want from her. One day she's to hard, the next day to soft. What the heck do you want from her.

Hillary 08!!

There is no soft side to this micromanaging self centered woman. Her over controlling behaviour has almost everyone nervous, Many of us remember the missing Rose law firms records and the memory lapses to her firing the white house travel employees and having them immediately ejected off of white house property.
No Hillary its time you took a bow and leave the political arena for the good of the country. I am sure the cnn sensors will delete this post.
SEMPER FI

This is just pathetic. Does HRC think we are all complete idiots? She is being bashed (rightly so) for going super negative against Obama and has voters commenting on her coldness and viciousness. Then we have a campaign appearance designed SOLELY to show her "softer side" and she **gasp** namages to get "glassy eyed" way to ramp up those emotions!

HRC, please give the electorate a little credit. There is not a more devisive Dem in the field. The Democratic Party and the US need a change.

And the Oscar goes to………….

You must be kidding me. Hillary will do and say whatever it takes to get elected. It doesnt matter if it is good for the american people. As long as she gets elected that is all she wants wake up you Hillary supportes your candidate is faker than a 3 dollar bill

We know she gets emotional. She was so emotional when it came time to leave the White House, that she had to take everything with her!!

Ok Senator are you ready for your close up? Cue the tears… tears in 3, 2, 1… ok good… keep um flowing, did we get that shot? are the cameras off? Great job everybody, Senator very believable right on cue, they almost looked real. OK strike the set! How scripted can you get?

OK America, are you ready to be screwed by an president who not only can lie to you lick Bush, but do it better? Well, this is it. What is, it? First you have to figure out what is, is?
THIS IS LAUGHABLE!!!!!!!!!

Give me a break.

boo hoo Hillary. boo freakin hoo. you spent your life calculating, scheming, lying, and pandering… but it's slipping away from you.

how can a black man beat you in Iowa? There's only .00001 percent of the population that's black! OBAMA is much, much, much more electable than you.

can't you see that americans are SICK SICK SICK of the way the Bushes and Clintons have governed? It's too polarizing. I voted republican last election, and will be voting Obama this time. Let's have a new vision and new direction for this nation!

Gag.

To all of you who accuse some of us of being hateful and afraid of a woman in power:

I can only speak for myself - I'm one of those people who think Clinton is a fake and will say whatever she thinks will get her elected, rather than what she truly believes. But I don't HATE Clinton and I couldn't care less if our president is a man or a woman. I think she is a calculating politician, but I don't HATE her. I have my reservations about Obama and I'm not sure about Edwards. So I WANT to be enthusiastic about her running for president. I WANT to like her. I WANT to believe her and in her. But I have NO IDEA what she actually stands for. I don't know what side of the issues she's REALLY on.

This is getting ridiculous. Hillary and Bill continuing to talk out of both sides of their mouths, now getting teary-eyed, changing their slogans and talking points to suit the flavor of the day, which only underscores the fact that they do not have an honest and consistent set of principles. The tears are not only a ploy for sympathy but I believe a sure sign of panic.

Her fall in the polls is starting to bear down on her.

I'm going to enjoy watching this fraud collapse like a house of cards.

Wow! I may not necessarily believe that Clinton is the best candidate for president (though I wouldn't be horrified if she won) but the kind of hatred towards her displayed on this board is just shocking! I mean I disagree with her on what i perceive to be somewhat socialist agenda but for people to criticize her on her laugh, tears etc is just ridiculous

If she really wants to help someone every day she should just go away.

Now I am scared…global warming must be real…ALL the icebergs are melting.

All this ham acting makes her more unlikeable. She's scrambling and making the mistake of going for the lowest common denominator and as a result turning away the people who wanted to vote for her in the beginning.

Oh give me a break! Listen to the Clinton campaign hacks whine. This woman has done nothing but turn her attack politics (the same type she denounces) on other Democrats. Need I remind the Clinton camp about the utterly stupid remarks about Obama wanting to be president as a child. Talk about hate driven politics. Hillary Clinton is the queen of hate politics.

I actually use to like her (and still do like her husband to a certain extent as I voted for him twice). However, disagree with her stances on many different issues as well as her attitude. I don't buy her sudden show of emotion. It's all political theater.

Ms. Clinton's disingenuous behavior continues to chip away at my loyalty to the Democratic Party. It appears she will stop at nothing to win the nomination, playing some of the dirtiest politics I have seen in years. I never thought I'd say this, but if she gets the nomination, I might just have to vote Republican! !

And this year's Oscar goes to……..

"your lips move, but I can't hear what you say…"

hillary get emotional? she has no feelings..how can that be?

For eight years Democrats bought Bill and Hillary Clinton hook, line and sinker. They have always been disingenuous, with Bill in the lead role it just wasn't so obvious. They are a disgrace, he will be remembered as a footnote between Reagan and Bush, she won't even register in the pages of history.

Obama is a pany waist who doesn't know what the heck he is doing half the time. If he had any sense of how to run a country he would at least show up to vote. He has missed over 140 votes this year alone. Almost as many as Tim Johnson who had a medical emergency.

He skipped the Kyl-Liberman resolution and then panned especially Hillary Clinton for voting. If it was such an important issue why in the devil didn't he show up to vote. Why didn't he show up to vote to give the military more time between deployments. Why didn't he show up to vote for more health benefits for military.

Oh but this is the guy who give speeches about what he is going to do for America. When he can't even vote to do that what in the devil would he do as president.

This is a woman whose campaign has become increasingly negative and dirty the more her rivals have gained on her. And yet, she wants us to believe that she is a warm and loving person who genuinely cares about us. As for her statement that every day she tries to find someone to help, that sounds more realistic of this candidate with an unpleasant socialist bent. Nearly every politician (except Ron Paul) thinks that sticking his/her nose into my business is helping me. No thanks. I can help myself. Just let me have my freedom, Government. And then GO AWAY!

It's too bad that politicians have to resort the this stuff to placate a schizophrenic country. Does America want to see a softer side of anyone? Look at all the leaders of this world, who's got the softest side. Putin? Chavez? Castro? Cowboy wannabe Bush? Wannabe hunter Cheney? Kim Jong is Ill? Hu Jintao? Sarkozy? Musharraf?

Who's the softy folks? And who's the real softy among all of our candidates? It's interesting that we demand that the men be hardcore but the women had to have a 'softer side'? Margaret Thatcher was put into office because she was a tough old bird that didn't take crap from the male elite. But if Hillary does this, she's too hard.

Boy the campaign really played into the hands of the Repubs on this one. Before she was too hardcore, now she's too emotional and unstable. I hope it is staged for their sake, that way if she has to fake tears she's considered hardcore just like cowboy George and his sidekick Barney Fife.

Thanks, Joel of Tacoma WA, for reminding us of red-letter Bibles. Too many people calling themselves Christians don't want to read or hear the words of Christ's teachings because they center on tolerance, forgiveness, and love, when they much prefer the intolerance and bigotry of the Old Testament and the writings of Paul. Living as Christ taught is the very essence of living a Christian life.

Is HRC able to cry? This woman is the most calculating politician I have ever seen. How can the people of the US not see her transparant manipulations? She and Bill have had their time. Let someone with real integrity and purpose have a shot.

Mrs Clinton shedding "Crocodile tears"! Very intesresting. I wonder if i can also change my lifelong personality in 21 days - # days to IOWA.

I hope Mrs Clinton will write a book titled "Change your personality (and bad habbits) in 21 days, it would be a bestseller.

Too late with the warm fuzzy treatment of this shrill woman. NPR's Nina Totenberg suggested many months ago that she get some voice lessons to take that edge off, advice which was apparently ignored. America does not want her and will say so definitively by February 5.

We love you, Hillary, and we don't mind that you and Bill are the most corrupt couple to ever occupy the White House! We can't wait to gleefully put y'all and your sleazy brothers back in the pardons-for-profit biz. We hate those evil Republicans so much that we don't care about all that you two and your vicious hacks have done to ruin the Democratic party.

Poll Results: Hillary is not likeable.
Solution: A "Please, Please Like Me!" Event.
Hopefully, she'll lose the nomination and we won't have to stomach this kind of self-centeredness anymore.

AND THE BEAT GOES ON ! THESE ACTS OF DECIEPT WILL NEVER STOP.. EVER ! AND THE CRYING PROVES , AND HER DROPPING RODHAM (GUESS THAT ISN'T AS EFFECTIVE AS PLAIN OL' CLINTON )I HOPE EVERYONE HAS HAD ENOUGH ,, IF NOT THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF THE A REDUX OF THE 90′S

Every day Hillary Clinton tries to help someone - herself.

And mostly she's trying to help herself to your hard earned cash.

She's a better actress than I thought she might be, maybe there a future here for politicians going to Hollywood instead of actors going to the White House.

Softer side? What would that be, pray tell, her backside? Softer side of a stone? I liked the headlines yesterday about Hitlery launches a likability campaign. That'll last like what, 30 seconds or so. That same amount of time it took to read "The Wit and Humor of the Johnson Administration".

Oh please. A classic display of Clintonesque contrived bull… Well, suffice it to say you can spread it on the ground and watch the plants grow faster.

hey somethjng that will make us all cry is another republican administration

I choke up every time I think it is possible that this immoral pair might once again sully the reputation of our country and White House with their gimme attitude and actions. Anyone, anyone, anyone but them. It is time we as a country rid ourselves of both the Bushes and the Clintons. Please hit the refresh button on your ballot by voting for somone else and moving the U.S. in a new direction.

most of the Obamamaniacs and Republicans on this comment board are simply idiots. Here is the first viable female candidate, and the last thing she would do strategically is to let anyone see her cry because inevitably for a woman, that equals weakness. Now you're accusing her of crocodile tears even if tears counter her own strategy. The Double Standards for women never ever stop. If Obama, Rudy teared up, we'd all go - awww, how warm and fuzzy. A woman cries and she's weak of contrived. Certainly this campaign is making me see all the sexism rear its ugly head (from men and women alike).

I'm in tears and showing a softer side just thinking about the possibility of Hillary Clinton being president. What a pile!!!

Oh Please. She is ridiculous.

I don't particularly care for Hilary, but i respect what she has done over the years, especially her work behind the scenes during her husband's term. However I must say that being over-emotional in the public's eye will do more to hurt her campaign than to help it. I'm not speaking of my own beliefs, but one of the major reasons some US citizens oppose a woman commander and chief is the question of whether they will be emotionally stable enough to run a country. On a personal note, I believe this country's leader has shown enough weakness in the past eight years. Im ready for somebody who is tough on the big issues, not somebody with a sob story. I would rather see a leader let out a rebel yell than cry at the podium, but that's just me. Dry your eye Hillary.

I bet the mother was a plant.

She can try to look softer and nicer ,but we all know those were not tears it was melt off of the ICE QUEEN

The only reason she wants to be President is to help you, so quit being so negative.

You people against Hillary don't like someone who cares you're the monsters. John Edwards can't even make Dick Cheney look bad, he lost his chance.

Give me a break. She is a good actor.

Many challenges in a campaign but to try to make Hillary appear human is an almost impossible task.

I have only to read a few of these plavlovs dog's posts to know why America is in trouble.
A true show of emotion is met with disdain and increduality for no other reason than that you have been trained to hate. No other reason. No other explanation. I don't support Hillary Clinton but the venomous posts on this blog are a symptom of everything bad about our country. Pass the koolaid.

I can't imagine Hillary would be under this intense scrutiny is she were not a woman. Her legs, her laugh, her hair, her makeup. She is not liked because of one fact and that is because she is a woman trying to run for the most powerful office in the world. People would be called bigots and banned from speaking publicly ever again if Obama were scrutinized because of his race. I could respect people alot more if they just came right out and said they personally don't want a woman in the White House instead of launching criticism about everything the woman does.

If she blew her nose in public people would say that she is trying to make people think she is sick to get sympathy votes. Why can't people just give her credit for BEING A POLITICIAN. A politician is a job. It's not easy. It's hard and like it or not it's a very nasty dirty business. Some people really make me think that they believe politicians are planting flowers in a nursery.

Give Hillary a fair shake sheesh!

HILLARY 2008 AND BEYOND

Posted By HILLARYLOVER, NY, NY : December 17, 2007 4:55 pm

Put the crack pipe down and back away slowly.

Since when did America become so critical? We're not watching gossip shows about celebrities, this is CNN about the political race. I just hope that people have the same strong opinions about the politics in their State, County, and City. Everything makes a difference. We are not electing a monster, but a leader of the "United States" of America.

Ron Paul 2008. She is crying for the country she intends on destroying with out of control spending and the continued destruction of the dollar and her intention on continuing the war

Ah she demonstrates her technique. big deal. CN will do anything for this woman. But she can't beat a GOP canidate no matter what they do.

The comments I am reading in this post are beyond insensitive. How can you all say such horrible things about a woman you've never even met? Do you know Hillary? Do you know that she was pretending to feel touched by her friends kind words as a political ploy? Unless you do know Hillary and can personally vouch for the fact that she is all of these evil things you all say she is, please take a minute and put yourself in her shoes, or Barack's shoes, or any politicians shoes for that matter. How would you feel if people you had never met were saying horrible things about you?

People knock Hillary for reasons they are unsure of just to knock her without any substantiated evidence. At least consider the fact that she is human and as much as the media portrays her as a so called "ice queen" she has feelings. Please consider the hateful things you say about people you don't know before you post them.

I think mrs. clinton is 'crying' because she knows the first domino is falling in her failing campaign. For those who wonder about her 8 yrs. experience, go to bill clinton's autobiography where he gives her credit for NOTHING! I wonder why? And, can anyone tell me one thing, just one thing she has done 'for the children'? What children? She's campaigning on the same stuff he did. She has a nerve still promising universal health care. You'd think the words would choke her coming out of her lying mouth.

"What I try to do every day is figure out how to help somebody,” she says… "somebody" meaning herself and herself alone. We "commoners" see right through this phony, pathetic, shameless, desperate attempt to "win" by any means (Clinton playbook: If bloated self-aggrandizement doesn't work, move on to baseless attacks and whisper campaigns agains opponents, and if that fails, try the pity card or self-humiliation). "The most enjoyable aspect of watching the HMS Hillary take on water is the prospect that Bill — and his cult of personality — will go down with the ship too." (see http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-goldberg18dec18,0,1234120,print.column?coll=la-util-opinion-commentary)

Presidents can't cry!… not unless another president has died, that's the ONLY reason why!
You can't cry for wanting to help people. You're going to have to do that everyday and not brag about it when you're president. What's gonna happen when Hillary meets with these foreign dictators, whom she said that she would meet with (before attacking Obama for saying the same exact thing), and she doesn't get her way? Is Hillary going to solve the problem and appease the nation by crying about it?

The wife of the former impeached president's problem isn't that we don't know her. It's that we know her all too well!

Yes, I know it hurts Hillary. Spending most of your life in public service, starting out on top (due to your connection w/ Bill Clinton), but keep seeing your poll numbers going down, it gotta hurt. And worse, losing to a young guy - who you think are 'naive and inexperience', not some 'experienced' guy like Joe Biden, it gotta hurt.

The mood of the country has changed. After so much beating from 'Bush' and seeing our own country falling apart, we want a 'uniter'. How can you unite the country when you keep attacking Bush and the Republicans? What's the use of attacking Bush - he's not running anymore. What's the use of attacking Republicans - you will have to work with them. I am also concerned with your response to the Iran situation. You said the reason you label them 'terrorists' is you want to increase diplomacy. How does that work? Anyone who gives a response like that, I probably said - 'Are you crazy? Are you insane? Can you think logically?

I usually don't attack people like this, but if you are thinking of leading this country, I have to raise these questions. Yes, your vote for Iran speaks volumes about your diplomatic skills and your understanding of foreign countries and how to deal with them. It has nothing to do with you being a woman. It's about you making poor decisions, and we have plenty of that from Bush.

I would just like to say that anybody who votes for Hillary is obviously disillusioned, most likely racist, and DEFINITELY voted for Geroge "Dubya" Bush.

You are disillusioned because she is full of untruthful, inconsistent rhetoric. For her supporters, you can't see through that because you are so shallow minded and naive.

You are racist because Barack Obama is clearly the RIGHT choice for America and he is what we need to restore what we have lost due to the past 20 years of the same reign in our government. If you have forgotten I'll show you… Reagan & Bush, Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush…Clinton? How about someone new, someone that's NOT WHITE? This is coming from a caucasian male just so you know.

Third, yes, you, YOU VOTED FOR DUBYA DIDNT YOU? DON'T LIE TO THE PEOPLE AND ACT LIKE YOU DIDN'T.

Have you morons who support Hillary not seen Bush's endorsement? Have you not clearly seen the family ties that the Bushs and Clintons now have? At my alma-mater, they performed the commencement speeh at graduation together. They attend eventstogether, they work together. I'm 24 years old and I see this. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? It is people like you, the Hillary Clinton supporters, that make the life of my generation and generations to come unthinkable. But I guess that it doesn't matter because you won't be around to see it. WE WILL.

Is this just another act like the one in Mississippi?

Ha.ha.ha.

Oh puh-lease. Yet another flip-flop.

She has long cultivated the image of s strong-willed, ice queen. No with voters beginning to see through her empty rhetoric, she's trying every trick in the game to pick up the poll numbers.

Is Hillary as phoney about her emotions as her husband who was caught laughing and joking coming out of the funeral for US Embassy personel who were killed in the terorist bombins of the US Embassys in Africa during their administration. As soon as he realized the camera was on him, he turned somber again. She has learned well form him to play the camera and the crowd.

Softer image like softer toilet paper. When are Americans going to wise up, this woman is a fraud.

This was a staged event so she could cry. All scripted and well planned. I know, I work for one of these idiots running for president, every word, every thought, every emotion is thought out and rehearsed and ran through legal. It was an act. Just like her and bills marriage. Although, I believe you will see the real tears when she gets sent back to the senate .

Oh, come on…Hillary is very used to these types of displays when needed. There is more news out there than this–yes?

Any candidate who stoops to dirty politics can't be in the running because they care about people. This woman only cares about herself and not only is she phony, but she is very insulting as well.

THIS is the Hillary I know:
http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUSN1742856620071218?pageNumber=3&virtualBrandChannel=0

After Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney got teary-eyed while talking about when his Mormon church opened its doors to black Americans, an MSNBC interviewer asked Clinton if she ever teared up. Clinton laughed off the question.
"Well, you know, when I had to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning in Des Moines I teared up," she said.

Enough said…THIS is the Hillary I Know.

I think I'm going to get sick after reading of the 'softer side'. What an act. She says that she tries to help someone every day. We should ask her Secret Service personel about that!

after seeing her ugly face on drudge she was saying what happened to my magic mirror and the tears flowed. the foney one hillry

And, the Academy Award goes to Mrs.

Clinton for her weepy performance as a

kind and compassionate woman who cares

about others…BALONEY

I believe her tears were real. A good actor can produce tears because they're very talented at pretending. Ms Clinton produced real tears because she's come to realize that there are not as many people in America who think much of her as she thought. Someone, some place, talked her into running and she jumped into the race and how doesn't have the guts to say to hell with you all, and go home. No, I don't everybody hates her, their are just alot of people that don't like her, or her hubby. It's just like when someone says they don't think queers are normal, the Clintonites call you hateful. Nobody hates someone they don't know, they just don't like them. It's the Clinton culture that has created the divisiveness in the country.

Oh give me a freaking break! Now she's crying??? She will NOT get my vote!

Lol at the end of the day if she make it to the white house or not she will go back to her executive life as a senator and her name will be on History book,what about you oxmoron haters will you have a place in your kids journel??? guess not LOsers

Why is anyone surprised by this?

She and her intern chasing husband decided while enjoying Bubba's fraudulanty obtained draft deferment that they were better than the rest of us. Once bubba's days were numbered it was decided that Hillary would be next, following crazy Al's term in office. Crazy Al's loss only strengthened her resolve.

Now, poor Hil is losing her shot at what she has "worked" for all these years. How pathetic. She is the most ruthless, cowardly, shameless person running. Only her husband is has less shame. The disbarred, lying, adultering, "I feel your pain" has come out with both guns a blazin' to help her now that the truth is out.

Anyone criticizing Edwards $400 haircut needs to remember bubba shutting down a runway at LAX for a stylish, Hollywood do while President.

Why isn't anyone talking about the travel office, or the stock schemes, or the fact that she refuses to release her "files" from the Whitehouse.

In Bubba's heart of hearts he wants to see Hil lose. he can't stand the fact that if elected, she would get more press than him. That would interfere with his $100K speaches allowing him to re-write history. And we can't have that….

Don from Dallas

I wonder why Tipper Gore isn't there for her.Her Mother has to do it and so does her daughter. The softer side of Hillary? Puleeze! What a phony! She's nothing but a "stepford" robot politician.

Scripted.

Choreographed. Contrived.

Calculated.

Unconvincing.
