Paglia Debunks Hillary Tears
Firebrand feminist Camille Paglia is not swayed by Hillary Clinton’s expression of near-tearful emotion before the New Hampshire primary, writing it off as just another weapon in Clinton’s arsenal of campaign tactics.
Writing on salon.com, Paglia observes that Hillary “is a brittle, relentless manipulator with few stable core values who shuffles through useful personalities like a card shark (‘Cue the tears!’)…
“Hillary’s real god is political expediency.”
Paglia says she plans to vote for Barack Obama “because he is a rational, centered personality who speaks the language of idealism and national unity.”
As Newsmax reported in October, Paglia — who came into the public eye in the early 1990s with her denunciation of “political correctness” — believes Hilary “has no vision” and can’t win the general election against any of the leading Republican presidential candidates.
