I'm not sure that you lose credibility but I don't think people want to deal with a "watering pot" - especially men. As you mentioned, you know her well and it makes you uncomfortable. Management may not want to promote her because they may think she doesn't have the strength of character to handle a tougher job.
The only time I can think of in my professional career that I ever cried in public is when my boss quit. It was announced in a meeting and my friend started to cry which sort of set me off. I thought that I would be let go, too. Any other time I have felt the need to cry, I have hidden in the bathroom, which rarely happens. After all, it is only work.
She may just need to develop a thicker skin.
