Voter who made Clinton teary picked Obama

[nevadamedic]

(CNN) – Many political observers are crediting Democrat Hillary Clinton's surprise win in New Hampshire to the New York senator's rare display of emotion at a Portsmouth Coffee shop Monday morning.

But Clinton's tearful moment failed to win at least one Granite State voter — the very woman who prompted her response in the first place.

Marianne Pernold-Young told CNN Wednesday she ultimately picked Barack Obama in Tuesday night's primary because of the Illinois senator's performance at a recent rally she attended.

"I was moved to tears. Not once, but twice," she said. "And he has this enormous electricity. And I was just taken aback. And I just had to go with my feelings."

Not that I would advocate taking the vote away from women, but when a woman votes on her "feelings," is she really doing the rest of the country any good?

i, feel, you may have a point. in all seriousness, this type of voting is unfortunately what most people use. i admit to it myself, i voted for manwhore in 92, was caught up in the "feeling", his charisma, his feeling my pain....

at its core, it is mob mentality. not just the charisma, but the entire "feeling" thing. in 92 i was 18 and caught up with my girlfriend's mom's high up politics (met frienkenstien and boxcutter). all i saw were dems and the feeling of going to those big time political events. it "felt" right.

So did/do I. He was a great mayor, and I didn't even live in Los Angeles. He would have been a better governor, Deukmejian was a waste.

interesting, all i heard about were his scandels and "side deals" hence the "slick" part that even you named him by.

hmmmmmmmm, seems a little bit of wheeling and dealing is really the way to get things working a city........but, as you know and i am not assuming you are saying -- too much of a good thing is not such a good thing.

take away the wheeling and dealing and what our we left with? who controls the deals? who spins the wheels? because in reality, you can't spin a wheel, without.......well the wheel "don't spin on its own."

what exactly are you saying?

[hjmick]

Who ran it? How old was the interview? He died in '98 or so.

i am saying willie played the game very well and got things done......

so then what i said was right? or rather, what I asked, was right?

you have to know how to spin the wheel.... to get the deal

bill clinton was also called "slick"

many good things happened to this country under his presidency. and, it appears that many good things happened while willie was mayor. are these events directly related or was the economy and other factors the driving "success" of these two men? forget clinton actually, i am interested in willie.

That would depend if she made that vote during that time of the month. :laugh2:
