From Dana Milbank:
2:57 p.m., Yeager Airport, Charleston, W.Va.:/ A steep descent brings
Clinton's plane to Charleston's hilltop airport. After an appropriate
wait, she steps from the plane and *pretends to wave to a crowd of
supporters; in fact, she is waving to 10 photographers underneath the
airplane's wing. She pretends to spot an old friend in the crowd, points
and gives another wave; in fact, she is waving at an aide she had been
talking with on the plane minutes earlier*.
From Eli Saslow:
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- West Virginians may have voted for Sen. Hillary Clinton yesterday, but they needed significant help throwing a victory party. About 300 supporters gathered inside the Charleston Civic Center, and they only cheered when cameramen announced upcoming live shots. Campaign aides distributed faux hand-made signs, because few people brought their own. Clinton entered the room a few minutes after 9 p.m. and found it only about three-quarters full.
