8. I said OK
It wasn't very well written and I don't think she delivered it very well. But the content was not terrible.

She had a job to do and she didn't just get it done, she hit it out of the park, imo!

25. Best she's ever given
Had she been this good a speaker at the beginning of the primaries, Obama wouldn't have had a chance.

41. Anytime you see DU united in anything...

...it proves something resounding just happened.

Of course by tomorrow, the trolls will have us all finding things to disagree about it on, but for now and for the afterglow, they cannot type fast enough to turd all over that fantastic speech, and I am no Clinton fan.

why wasn't she Barack's VP choice? I think that could have guaranteed victory.

42. I'd tell you why I think...

...but in the interest of party unity, I'm keeping my opinions on that to myself until after the general election.

36. not to nitpick, but
Why does the pink bar for terrible, with 0 votes, look longer than the yellow bar for poor with a whopping one vote?

46. pixels.


Yellow = Red and green lit, blue not lit = 1 unlit subpixel

Pink = red lit and green and blue half lit = 2 unlit subpixels

(on a white background it's unlit pixels that stand out.)

38. I would have liked to hear her tell the PUMAs to knock it off.
I enjoyed her speech though. Frankly I was looking for some kind of admonishment to the PUMAS issue. The repukes are using the PUMAS issue to damage the Obama campaign, Senator Clinton could have shut that down cold. To a degree she DID do that with her speech, it WAS unifying, BUT I fear it was not enough. I believe we WILL still be hearing from and about them in the days ahead-mostly I think continuing to be repuke driven through a corporatist controlled media. Had she called for those who support her but NOT Obama to exit the building-THAT would have done in the repuke driven PUMA shenanigans and all but shut down this MSM driven wedge.

That said, this was indeed the very best speech I have heard from Senator Clinton. I loved her personal touch-her use of tragic individuals she had met throughout her campaign, her description of the future First Lady Michelle, her Grandmother who could not vote but her daughter who could and did vote for her own mother to be POTUS. She beat on mCcain nicely too, linking him to bush was especially nice in my book. Despite my feelings about Senator Clinton I found myself hoping mid-way through her speech for an interruption by Senator Obama with the announcement that Senator Clinton had agreed to be a member of his cabinet-perhaps Secretary of State. (Well my first choice, Biden, won't be gettin' that job now will he.)

I guess if I had to describe the speech in one word it would be: EXTRORDINARY
Well that's my 2 cents worth.

40. buh buh but she didn't say Obama was qualified...
Only that "And when Barack Obama is in the White House, he'll revitalize our economy, defend the working people of America, and meet the global challenges of our time." And plenty of other great things she believes he will do, presumably in the McCain campaign's willfully distorted view of reality, without believing him qualified. :eyes:

Friggin lying-ass republicans.
