Bushie Handler Coached Mrs. Alito to Cry on Cue (latest BS from the party of corruption and deceit)

Wolcott is among the many looking askance at Mrs. Alito's tearful exit from the hearing room yesterday. I join the pooh-pooh parade, though I think trying to hang the blame on Lindsay Graham is pyschologically unsound -- it is sometimes when a sympathetic friend offers a shoulder that we cry, not during the trauma itself.

The thing I have not seen anyone comment on is the fact that just before Mrs. Alito dashed, the young woman to her left leaned over and said something to her. Who is that woman? I can't find her name anywhere -- but I am quite sure she is the same woman I saw interviewed on Monday or Tuesday. She is part of the Adminstration's team of Alito handlers and spinmeisters. Which raises the question: what did she say? Did she tell the Missus to walk out? It sure looked like cause and effect from here.....

Update: Eagle-eyed reader Adam informs us that the apparent acting coach is Rachel Brand, from the Attorney General's office. Wonkette has the 411.
