The Cry Heard Round the World !!!

It was the cry heard round the world. An exhausted and exasperated Hillary Clinton broke down before America. The Barack Express, leading by 12 points in the polls, was steamrolling Mrs. Clinton's invincible machine. As the cameras rolled 24 hours before New Hampshire residents voted, Mrs. Clinton broke down and said, "It's about our country. It's about our kids' future. It's about all of us together. Some of us put ourselves out there and do this against some difficult odds."

Was she crying? Was it tears? Whatever it was, it was pure genius.

She captitulated for a brief moment. We all do at some point. But she capitulated on television for the world to witness. Such raw emotion from a steely woman like Mrs. Clinton was unprecedented. With Obama up by 12%, the Clinton campaign in disarray, and Obama prepared to bring down the Clinton dynasty, the "Cry Heard Round the World" was born.

It was Tarzan's call to the wild animals to come and help. Mrs. Clinton's breakdown was nothing short of the most primal solidarity call to all women. It wasn't a call you could hear if you were a male. The poll results showed men overwhelmingly voting for Obama. The men failed to understand the signal.

Experts and pundits scratched their heads watching the election returns roll in. How could they have been so wrong? How did Hillary pull off the Hail Mary pass to bring victory?

It was the Tarzan principle. As Tarzan cusps his mouth and extends his clarion call for help when he really needs the help, the creatures of the jungle risk life and limb to show up at Tarzan's side.

Hillary's silent tears brought qualified females 40 years and older to her side. Did these women really listen? With 58% of these undecided women voters breaking for Hillary at the last minute, these sorority sister's listened and bailed her out. The Tarzan Principle worked.

It was powerful. Solidarity and pity rolled into one vote. Is she the best candidate for the job? It doesn't matter. She's a woman. She needed help from the girls club of the Granite state and they gave all too willingly. Thats all that mattered on this day. Will Mrs. Clinton employ the Tarzan Principle again during the primaries? We may never know.

We know, however, that the Senator from New York believes that she has "found her voice" and will live another day to fight. As Obama stood on the stage conceding the Granite state, he looked as if he had been sucker punched.

Sucker punched he was. It was the females. It was the Tarzan Principle. It was hysterical emotion trumping intelligent debate. Called into a mission that saves a fellow woman from disgrace,they now go back into the wild awaiting their Tarzan's next set of orders tomorrow.
