It is Chris Matthews, so perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised. But can we make this weepy-eyed stuff stop already?

I thought Barack Obama’s speech last night was impressive. He easily outclassed Hillary Clinton, who gave the best speech of her life right after his. Vocally, maybe it was the hoarseness of having delivered speech after speech after speech, but he even sounded like MLK. The “Yes we can” refrain was a serious lift. Nevertheless, for grown men and especially members of the press to start getting weepy over this is just…unstoppable, apparently.
