Hillary Clinton is crying on the campaign trail, again and it has nothing to do with her new supporter Ann Coulter.  With Barack Obama closing the gap on Clinton, she has gone back to the old Clinton standby - tears.  Hey, it worked in New Hampshire.  When it appeared that the Hillary campaign would be over before it started she tried to appear human and turned on the waterworks.

It worked in the Granite State, and she pulled off the victory there.  But can it really work again?  And if it does, how many more times will we have to sit through Hillary's teary-eyed confessions.  The former First Lady is running her campaign on what she claims is thirty-five years of experience but has it now been reduced to the potential "Crier-in-Chief"?

***

According to a report from Jason George, writing on his blog called "The Swamp", he says that Hillary cried during an introduction by Penn Rhodes about her no longer being a 'bell bottom wearing hippie chick' and applauding her transformation to the top of the heap and possibly the next US President.  That's when she cried.

According to the report Rhodes cried during the introduction, then Clinton started crying and it was a big cry off.  He cried, she cried and the whole big bawl fest was on.  In defense of Hillary, Fox news is saying that she was coughing and hacking throughout the event, perhaps she was a bit under the weather.  But she will surely be accused of orchestrating the whole event.
