3. I cry all the time when bush is on tv
and I change the station, too.

Crying about something, or better put, shedding a tear, is okay if its in the right situation... for example: I don't think crying would've worked for Dean the other night either.

I saw Dean's scream and knew exactly what he was doing but immediately said "he's done". It didn't come across very well on TV and the media built up the anger thing for so long... the look just fed right into what they were saying. The still photos looked worse.

I like how he came back from it though, especially when he quietly, calmly recites the states in a mock dignified manner. There just may not be enough time recover, though. Its not so much losing the first two states but losing the huge "he's the winner" leads. It appears as if its taking whatever shine he had nation-wide off of his image.
