the crying game

Whether she did it on purpose or if it was genuine, I think it was Hillary's being on the verge of tears on Monday that won her the New Hampshire primary. I think it is a pretty sad commentary on the decision-making process of the New Hampshire Democrat primary voters that that is the case, but I think that was what did it for her. I also read the theory on Hugh Hewitt's blog (here) that a lot of potential Obama voters thought it was in the bag for him and decided to cross over and vote for McCain instead. Could be. I just am hoping that Rudy can win in Florida and then win big on Super Tuesday otherwise the choices are bad (McCain) and worse (Huckabee).
