McAuliffe credits emotion for Clinton win
Edited on Wed Jan-09-08 11:08 AM by ProSense
"They watched that debate. I think they saw Hillary Clinton and she contrasted the records. And I think the humanizing moment yesterday, I think that's what did it," Clinton campaign chairman Terry McAuliffe told MSNBC.

Clinton herself seemed to credit emotion and authenticity in her victory speech, saying that in New Hampshire "I found my own voice," and "we all spoke from our hearts."

Likewise, when I heard Terry Mc on NPR this morning I almost gagged. He did say, however, that one of the reasons for Hillary's win was she allowed her human side to show and that they would be capitalizing on this during the rest of the campaign.

1. no, its the BS piling on that raised empathy for her
it wasn't her emotion.
Its making the BS attacks so offensive that people feel the need to show support

10. Are people that gullible? Is there anyone in the U.S. that doesn't
think the weepy voice moment was planned, calculated, staged and contrived? That's classic Bill strategy there.

11. That's my point exactly....
....I wonder, who asked the question that got her all "choked up"...? Another plant maybe? I wouldn't be surprised in the least...

4. B.S. Terry Mc is a meatball operative. They love to milk any spin that will remotely sway
women voters. And then ORDER US to vote for HRC.

Think again, Terry, you DLC Machine mutant freak! ;)
