'Can we all say that together... with an enthusiasm?' or is it 'Please Clap...'



State Sen. Jennifer Shilling wanted a response from the crowd to sound enthusiastic and she sounded entirely happy with the results. "I can feel it. I can feel it."

“I am proud to say, without hesitation, I’m with her,” Shilling said to the crowd of onlookers. “Can we all say that together on the count of three... with an enthusiasm? 1, 2, 3,” Shilling said, and the crowd echoed it back, “I’m with her.” She even got an assist from the mic by pointing it out towards the crowd.

Shilling replied that she could feel it.

“Alright. I can feel it. I can feel it."

Somehow this reminded me of Jeb Bush when he asked his audience to 'please clap'. I may be wrong, but that's how it came across to me.

But definitely not even close to the enthusiasm Bernie gets without asking.
