Remarkable. I can’t think of a better word to describe Hillary’s speech last night. She did everything she was supposed to do … and then some. There is no reasonable Hillary supporter out there who can pull the lever for McCain after that speech. Unless they were only supporting Hillary so a woman could be in the White House. And, voting for someone just because they’re a woman is about as dumb as not voting for someone because they’re black.
Like I’ve said, I wasn’t an ardant Hillary supporter, but watching her last night made me proud of how far we’ve come as a country. Hillary has a lot to offer this country and I can’t wait to see what lies ahead for her.
There have been numerous media accounts about President Clinton’s competitiveness. He’ll want to protect his legacy and he’ll want to show that he’s up to the challenge and able to deliver a speech even more rousing than his wife’s. Wonder what he’ll do tonight? Hopefully, he’ll take Hillary’s lead and come out for Obama in full force.
