Does it take tears?

Question

How gullible can people be? Is all it takes to change an opinion a few tears, a pout, a whine and pleading eyes? If Clinton by some stretch of the mind were to be elected president will her whining, tears and pouting get the results we need from other country leaders? Would it help if Obama, McCane, Romney, Edwards or any of the others benefit from complaints about being picked on by "the boys", whimper a little or shed a few tears? We need a sympathetic president but one that is strong enough to take the pressure without whining, complaining or becoming emotional. Experience without results means nothing; Clinton has spent 15 years trying to sell a health plan that neither the democrats nor republicans would support; how does that experience qualify her for anything? With all the experience Clinton claims why are we faced with the problems we have; she has been a part of the government that has created most of the problems and there is nothing in her record to show she tried to avert or fix the problems. By her own admission she voted for the war without reading the intelligence reports – that is leadership? Do we need that kind of expereince?

Answer 1

Ya, people are stupid. It does just take tears and people melt. They see a "softer" side and think that the person is showing emotion because they are "real". Give me a break. I don't want a pres that's cry because of too much pressure. If she thinks elections are stress full, what does she think the presidency is gonna be like?

Answer 2

If Clinton is elected the secret service will need to add hanky techniques to their training, the presidential entourage will need to include a hanky bearer, and a future presidential library will include a crying towel; and all this at tax payer’s expense. I am amazed that, according to statistics, women were Hillarie’s greatest supporters in NH. They should have been able to see through her tactics if that is what they were. If they were not tactics meant to gain sympathy then they were real and that is even worse; can we afford to have a cry baby as president? Our president needs to have the strength to stand up to difficulties. She complained when the going got tough (the boys were picking on her – does she think she is back on the school grounds), she whimpered and teared up when she lost - what can we expect in the future?

Answer 3

She and her campaign people along with the advice of Bill will do whatever they can to get her to the Oval Office, they have a country to destroy together.

Answer 4

Hillary Clinton must have stability under pressure so that she will be effective to fight for her healthcare program if ever she will be elected as President.  Crying on issues is not an answer.

Answer 5

i congragulate you for being against clinton. i

feel the same.

Answer 6

Bravo, bravo, bravo!

Well said.

The women in NH was hoodwinked good.  Hillary played them and they fell for it.

How sad.

If any male candidate had tried that stunt, he would have been seen as a weakling and immediately dismissed as a presidential hopeful.

And I'll never  believe that ALL the polls were that wrong.  Something's just not adding up in New Hampshire.  It's like the Gore/Bush debacle all over again.  And we all know how that turned out.

And you're absolutely right.  Experience without results absolutely means nothing.
