- On February 4, 2008 Hillary teared up again on the campaign trail gaining national media attention.
- Coincidentally, her second cry is the day before a major primary, much like her cry before the New Hampshire primary.
- Mitt Romney has teared up three times on the campaign trail yet, he does not garner the same media attention as Hillary. Double standard? Decide for yourself.
- Today, while looking up information on Hillary's latest cry I came across a story from the Boston Globe chronicling Romney's three teary moments.
- Moment one came at the end of his televised speech on religion, two was during an appearance on ""Meet the Press," when he recalled the moment in 1978 when he heard that the Mormon Church had ended its ban on full participation by black members." and three occurred when "Romney told a stock campaign story about watching the casket of a US soldier killed in Iraq come off the conveyor belt of a plane at Logan International Airport in Boston. The soldiers he was with saluted and passengers in the terminal paused and put their hands on their hearts"
