Get out the Kleenex. The man formerly known as “No Drama Obama” pulled out all the stops — and unleashed some tear drops — in Iowa tonight. We didn’t see them fall when our murdered diplomatic staff came home from Benghazi in coffins. We didn’t see them during Obama’s tour of areas devastated by Hurricane Sandy. And we didn’t see them over the last four years of dismal jobs report releases. But with his pride and the election hanging in the balance, the formerly diffident president has turned on the spigot.
His fans ate it up:
Aww I was just watching Obama on tv and he was crying . Made me cry ???

This Obama speech is a good reminder than when I run for office, I will be crying about everything constantly because politics is emotional.

But not all were wowed:
Just like the rest of us. RT @adamsbaldwin: Looks like Obama is crying in Iowa right now.

Obama's crying? Yeah, well Mitt's talking right now, about real issues. I'll stick with the Mitt rally.

Obama's crying at his last campaign stop. Mitt is talking about what he's going to do the next 4 years. Help is on the way!

Obama in Iowa on MSNBC. Obama acts and sounds weak and beaten. He is crying.

@TwitchyTeam Are you sure Obama's tears weren't put there by his teleprompter?

Two paths. Two visions. Two faces:
Mitt Romney is energetic and hopeful. Obama's crying. Tells you all you need to know about this race.
