A poisened well

The first time I saw the emotional Hillary video I hadn't heard or read the intro question and I thought, "Hey, she's human!" Then I saw Obama's bus interview and actually cried after he talked about his daughter and praying for G-d's will to guide him (he reminded me of my husband at that moment). I still thought Hillary's emotion was welcome.

Then, I was listening to NPR and I heard a reporter phrase the question that was asked of Hillary:

"How do you, how do you keep upbeat and so wonderful?"

I immediately had visions of George Bush's "town halls" that had planted questions like, "You are such a great President!" and then I remembered how Clinton has already been busted for planting questions. I felt a little sick when I again heard her emotional answer that didn't really say anything deeply revealing about her.

I came away from the NPR interview thinking, "This could be genuine, but there's every reason to believe it's planted and staged." That's been her political operation and she's poisoned the well.
