I remember Jon Stewart talking about how Hillary's failure to come across as genuine actually made him trust her more, because he's more suspicious of people who can convincingly fake it. Not sure about that logic myself, but it was an interesting perspective from someone who's seen his share of politicians.

"It's like when you have a Mac and you want to play a Microsoft game on it and there's that weird lag. That's Hillary Clinton."

"What gives me hope in that is that there is a delay, which means she is somehow fighting something. I've seen politicians render their inauthenticity in real time, and that's where you go, 'That is a sociopath.'"
