I often cry....
I cried when that beautiful young Arizona native girl sang the National Anthem at the Super Bowl...and then... I cried when my Patriots lost the game.....

It's good to cry every now and then.......

2. Ya think? She cried over fond memories of her youth...
Maybe you are too young to understand that, or you don't have fond memories of your youth...

3. hillary is doing a disservice to all women. how can anybody take her genuinely anymore?
"I doubt real feminists would defend a woman crying...
twice now...the day before the election when the polls are down.

In fact while I am posting. I really think Hillary is hurting the womens' rights movement. Running on her husband's record in the white house. Becoming emotional for sympathy.(sympathy not for the tears but against the criticism by the media that notes the convent timing of the tears)

She should stop talking about what her husband accomplished as though it's her own record. And she should stop the playing up of the alleged "snub." Enough with the victim card. Enough of the NY chapter of NOW making statements about Obama and Edwards "gang-banging (their words)" Hillary in the debates. Enough of the "all boys club of presidential politics" BS.

She needs to run on her own merits and not as a woman, but as a candidate. "
