Peter Hamby -- CNN "journalist", former producer (http://www.dailypaul.com/197803/shocking-cnn-reports-on-ron-pauls-1987-book#comment-2064096) of Wolf Blitzer's Situation Show, and author of the latest CNN hit piece (http://www.dailypaul.com/197803/shocking-cnn-reports-on-ron-pauls-1987-book) on Dr. Paul -- is now tweeting (http://twitter.com/peterhambyCNN) about the plan for the Gingrich campaign to humanize him with the help of the mass media.


"Newt gets all teary-eyed talking about his mom in front of a group of moms in a Des Moines coffee shop"

"Big moment for Newt. A side none of us ever see."

"Get ready for Newt crying video to air all weekend before the caucuses"

Oh this "spontaneous" clip is now going to "air all weekend" is it?

This is totally reminiscent of fellow CFR member (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYq3TaBik64) Hillary Clinton's convenient teary-eyed performance (http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2008/01/06/hillary-tears-up.html) the day before the NH primary. The headline on Jan 6, 2008 was "Obama opens double-digit lead over Clinton (http://articles.cnn.com/2008-01-06/politics/nh.poll_1_cnn-wmur-poll-sampling-error-granite-state-voters?_s=PM:POLITICS)"

Then Clinton cried.

The headlines Jan 9: "Clinton Comes Back to Win New Hampshire Primary (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=17952888)"

Here is a quote from The tears over coffee that turned round poll (http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/jan/10/hillaryclinton.uselections20082), published by the Guardian, Jan 9, 2008:


It was the defining moment of the New Hampshire race: Hillary Clinton, the icy control queen of the Democratic party welling up with emotion - and it may have won her an improbable victory over Barack Obama. The emotional moment in a cafe on the eve of Tuesday's poll was widely credited yesterday for bringing female voters back to the Clinton fold after their defection in the Iowa caucuses last week. Their strong support, as well as a surge for Clinton from traditional Democratic voters in the large towns of New Hampshire, propelled her to victory when polls were forecasting a double-digit win for Obama. Clinton took 46% of the women's vote against 34% for Obama, exit polls showed; and women turned out to vote in greater numbers than men, making up 57% of the electorate. That participation, and the demonstration of sympathy for Clinton, succeeded in halting Obama's campaign in its tracks.

By total coincidence these GENUINE, SPONTANEOUS, TOTALLY UNSCRIPTED tears came the day before Super Tuesday (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OVYPd8PZ3k) for Clinton too.

the down side for newt gingrich is that many current and former Democrats think he is a total egotistical idiot and a few tears now do not suffice.

those tears can only work on either a dumb G.W~BUSHITE or an older G.H.W~BUSHITE
with a few memory glitches. they do not work on Democrats. only Hillary's do!!! trust me!

Haha, reading the title I thought he was crying because he finally realized that his dreams of ruling the world are slipping away right before his eyes....

The media really wants Obama again in 2012. What a joke.

I love it. Newt might steal that soft support back from Santorum. It's funny... the media can't decide who to push. The most important thing is that Ron and Romney have a clear distance from the rest of the pack. Splitting the vote between the lower tier is exactly what we need. Hell, he might even eat into Romney a bit :).

Meanwhile:

Can't get much more polar opposite from Dr. Paul's "dont be a p*ssy", campaign ad.

Top of Drudge now.


Vader: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO"

This is such crap, pulling a stunt like this to get votes? How about having policies people can agree with and not wanting to kill/detain americans that don't agree with you.

The Blaze got it as well, including the Clinton comments.

Of course I added:

Here is a clip of Gingrich's mom, smoking, calling him "Newtie"
Didn't know she was mentally ill. That's sad.
