Sexist quote of the day: "Those tears have to be analyzed"

This is the most insane thing I have ever heard and it's from Jesse Jackson Jr - Obama's Co-chair. Watch his body language and is emphasis on certain words...appearance & emotional.

JR: We saw something very clever in the last week of this campaign coming out of Iowa, going into New Hampshire, we saw a sensitivity factor. Something that Mrs. Clinton has not been able to do with voters that she tried in New Hampshire.

Not in response to voters -- not in response to Katrina, not in response to other issues that have devastated the American people, the war in Iraq, we saw tears in response to her appearance.

Norah O'Donnell: Ahhha

JR: So her appearance brought her to tears, but not hurricane Katrina...not other issues..

ODONNELL: Are you suggesting then that it was a little bit affected -- her tears - that it was staged?

JR: "I wouldn't say that. I am saying that there a lot of issues we can be EMOTIONAL on in this campaign...and yet in this dynamic, in the Granite state, we saw a melting.
What a loser. How desperate was Barry at that point? Man above the fray allowing his Co-chair to whale away on his opponent for the need to analyze "tears". Blaming Barry's loss on Sen Clinton crying about her appearance. How pathetic. The woman who asked the (unscripted 100% spontaneous) question that got an unscripted 100% spontaneous response from Sen Clinton voted for Barry.
