To me, Hillary Clinton comes off as dejected and generally depressed that she could not have voted for herself in that booth. Her blatant lack of insincerity while speaking about Barack Obama's presidency could not have been more obvious. The way she comes out of the booth and puts those long pauses in between "Barack Obama!...Next president of the United States...No doubt about it....we're going to have a great election today...." comes off almost as sarcastic. Then she begins the interview by saying, "I am so looking forward to getting to work with President Obama..." putting the stress on the work she is going to do rather then congratulating Obama on his campaign efforts. She comes off as still self-centered and bitter after everything that has happened during the primary season. One can see further through her insincerity they way that her eyes wander during the interview. She generally looks down as if she's embarrassed about the outcome. That is the curse of the politician that belongs to a political party. They must endorse their victor even if they themselves are the loser of the primary.
The McCain campaign has recently used a quote from Hillary Clinton in a robocall used to target people in key states that may have voted for Hillary Clinton in the primaries.
The robocall says,
“I am calling for John McCain and the RNC. Listen to what Hillary Clinton had to say about John McCain and Barack Obama:(RNC enlists Clinton to attack Obama)
‘In the White House there is no time for speeches and on-the-job training. Senator McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign and Senator Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002. I think that is a significant difference.’
This call was paid for by the Republican National Committee at 866-558-5591 and authorized by McCain-Palin 2008.”
Did Clinton have the urge to pull the Republican lever in the booth? And if she did, did she follow it?
