All the angst on Clinton operatives that day was about the fact they had to put in place the plan to “steal” the vote.

I disagree: Hillary!s folks wouldn't have any angst whatsoever about stealing an election.

The angst was contrived and feigned in order to lower expections (drop them right through the floor actually) so that when she won it would be "Comeback Kid" part deux.

Let me clarify myself.

Did you look at those people? The looked awful. McAuliffe never looked worse or acted more distracted.

The angst was not because they really didn’t want to have to do it. The angst would be the stress involved with carrying it off.

No matter what, they are people, awful ones at that. They do not want to leave anything out there to expose them. That would be the end of the line.

Yes, as one of the talk show host pointed out — Somehow, Clinton managed to take a double-digit lead in New Hampshire, and in the course of a single month turn a sqeacker of a victory into a “comeback”.
