Look at how Yahoo news is reporting Clinton's emotional moment

[Colobo]

"Fading in polls, Clinton vows to fight on"

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080107/pl_nm/usa_politics_dc

Read the article- they are linking her tears with the fact that she is losing, not with any personal conviction she might have. I'm not sure this kind of press will help her tomorrow or in the near future.

1. I'm not a Hillary supporter, but I thought we had moved beyond Ed Muskie.

[rodeodance]

5. Many many small-minded people in this world still.

[george_maniakes]

6. And i thought we had moved beyond mondale.

"wheres the beef?"? Whats next, "what you talkin' bout Obama!?!"? Get with it Hillary.

[Colobo]

11. LOL!

17. Muskie was a tough old goat, but he still cried like a baby duck.

Angered by Manchester Union-Leader publisher William Loeb's attacks on his wife and himself, Edmund S. Muskie – then a senator from Maine and the early favorite for the Democratic presidential nod – raged against Loeb in front of the newspaper's building during a late February snowstorm. The Washington Post's David S. Broder, among many others, reported that Muskie had "tears streaming down his face," though in retrospect Broder and his colleagues acknowledge that the "tears" could have been melting snow.

20. Reminds me of how the "dean scream" was more a product of the media...

than of dean himself. I wonder if broder gets taken to task by his fellow journalists for such a poor job at reporting that.

2. It's all right with me if Clinton loses.

It would be even better if Obama were to lose as well.

However, he's siphoning off so many Reep and Indy
votes that I don't think he can lose.

My support will always be for Edwards, the only sane
voice in a sea of corporate slime.

Go Edwards!

[Alexander]

3. I suspect the MSM will tear her apart over this.

Even though I saw the clip and she didn't look like she was crying to me.

If it sunk Ed Muskie, it will sink her. I want her to lose, but not like this.

4. yahoo assisted in the murder of a lot of chinese customers i doubt they are run by humans with souls

[avaistheone1]

9. Yahoo is beginning to sound like Faux News maybe worse.

MSM is in bad shape in this country.

7. How dare Clinton

show emotions!

How dare Clinton not show emotions!


wait --which is it?


Frankly --I thought it was an incredibly heartfelt moment --and it touched me.

I WANT a President that cares that deeply about issues and the state our country is in.

[ronnykmarshall]

14. She's too cold!

She's weak!

Fucking bullshit around here.

[maddiejoan]

21. This kind of crap is gonna backfire

women KNOW exactly how Hillary is being attacked.

we've all been there.

[L0oniX]

8. "her eyes glistening with tears"...yea we need a president who crys.

"Stop attacking our country ...boohoohoo whaaa whaa whaa sniffle sniffle boohoo"

[mtnsnake]

10. Hey, she's listening to my Secret 1-2-3 Formula for her comeback, Katz. It's called "The Clincher"

I wouldn't be surprised if she enacts Parts 1 and 2, as well :evilgrin:

12. "But some of us are right and some of us are wrong," she said in a hesitant, quaking voice.

I think that just about sums it up for me.

[wtmusic]

13. Her Muskie moment?

Does not bode well.

[JVS]

15. She's crying now?

Oh good lord.

[JackORoses]

16. She's been hanging around Boehner too much, it seems

[tuvor]

18. It's not Yahoo News, it's Reuters.

[Colobo]

19. Reuters, through Yahoo! News.

[tuvor]

22. Exactly. *Reuters* is reporting, and Yahoo's only licensed their news feed.

Like so many other news feeds Yahoo has licensed.

ON EDIT: AOL News is also running the very same Reuters report. http://news.aol.com/story/_a/teary-eyed-clinton-vows-to-fight-on/20080107142809990001

23. Clinton has personal convictions?

Really!?

[emilyg]

24. And your reason for posting this is????

[saracat]

25. Actually , it might.Unfair personal attacks have a way of backfiring.
