Clinton making ‘insincere gesture’ with drinking style?

A psychologist in London claims that drinkers at bars fall into one of eight personality types based on their body language. The Telegraph quotes him as saying:

When Hillary Clinton was on the campaign trail in the US, commentators picked up on the fact that she used her left hand to raise a pint, even though she’s right-handed.

“She might just have been posing for a shot but some people suggested that it was an insincere gesture.”

Here’s another possible explanation, based on the photo above of Clinton drinking a vanilla chai at a Dunkin’ Donuts in Concord, N.H., on Jan. 8, 2008, while on the campaign trail. Perhaps she likes to keep her right hand free so she can shake people’s hands! Just a thought.
