The Palpatine Smile

Is it just me ? I'm not trying to be cute, or editorialize politically with this observation,but...I watch a lot of all the campaign stump speeches on CSPAN, and time and again as I'm watching Senator Hillary Clinton giving her speeches ( and doing a good job ), something about her smile, this particular expression she wears a lot, it reminds me irresistably of the smile of the evil Senator Palpatine in the Star Wars movies ( you know, the dark lord of the Sith, who goes on to become Emperor ), especially when he's trying to seduce Anakin Skywalker, or pledging to protect the embattled democratic planet of Naboo...
And I wondered if anyone else had felt a similar doubletake.

Eh I think all the canidates should leave a slime trail.
Other than Ron Paul of course.

It is probably because your subconscious is picking up that it is a fake smile.

uhuh
mabey we should give her an India/Native name
something like.... "Walks With Snail Trail"

yes that smile and laugh is so mechanical.
almost stepford wife like.

and the look on barbera bush is even more mechanical.

its creeps me out.....

these ladies (and I use that term loosely) truely creep me out.

In the interest of fairness, I've seen similar smiles on many canidates this time around. It's not exclusive to Ms Hillary. I even noticed the recent change in Huckabee, but it might have been purely circumstantional.

Man, this whole ordeal this time around is just nutty.

No, Ron Paul leaves one, he's just good at convincing people it isn't slime. Of course, his deluded followers say there isn't even a trail...
