Hillary Clinton KILLED it last night - bravo!

Wow, what a speech! She just delivered 100% of her voters to Barack Obama. She was FANTASTIC. On the one hand, I am still bummed out she wasn't the VP pick, but on the other hand, she made it abundantly clear that she supports Obama. I am sure/hopeful we'll see her somewhere in the Obama Cabinet.

That cracking sound you heard last night at around 11:00 PM EDT was the sound of Republican hearts breaking. The smart ones know it's probably over.

Like a columnist wrote in today's Daily News, this is all about 2012. If Obama loses, and the party feels she's a saboteur, it could come back to haunt her four years from now. Clinton's too savvy(and calculating) to make that mistake.

She bored the living daylights outta me. It's one thing to say someone is not ready and another to come back and say he is. And I didn't dig how she was still pushing her own agenda. Was her points on healthcare how they got her to cooperate?

Her speech is in 3 parts on youtube. I listened to the first part, it was all about her. Which part does she get to the real issues????

I am glad that she is talking about the women's right to vote.

so far, of all the speeches i've heard, she's the only one who paid tribute to Stephanie Tubbs-Jones and Bill Gwatney.

If Hillary thinks she's setting herself up for 2012, she may have a longer wait because Barack is going to be President until 2016!

I thought Hillary's best line last night was about John McCain: "We don't need 4 more years of the last 8 years!"

am i the only one not watching?

I agree with you Rodeo Thought her speech was just fantastic If that was the Hillary that campaigned, she would have been the nominee I find it very interesting that she spent her entire campaign calculating and now she's being herself and Obama campaigned being himself and is now calculating his votes and approach and all that.

A huge part of me is genuinely sad she isn't the VP. I started out supporting Hillary and it was because of her campaign that I switched my support and voted Obama in the primaries. It was her campaign that undid her. She is so much better than the campaign she ran. Of course people are going to dismiss her speech and feel this is calculated and scheming but honestly I feel this is really one time she wasn't and I respect her incredibly for it

we will get a lot further ahead if we unite rather than divide.
Hopefully voters will get that message.

Let me qualify that. If her supporters do not support Obama en masse, then yes they are to blame. Sounds to me like the majority have some sense in their heads but there are still a bunch of cunts out there complaining and that term applies to both men and women!

Her supporters have been horrible during the primaries. Lying and trying to steal the nomination. I heard some lady yesterday saying she had gripes about the process and that the rules weren't followed and that she just wanted the rules to be obeyed and the interviewer asked her what about Florida and Michigan and she didn't want to discuss it. Hillary agreed not to count those two states and then tried to game the system by going back on her word. Hillary lost out on this because of HILLARY and the sooner her supporters open their eyes, the better.

Nope, Hillary like all the other candidates agreed to NOT campaign in those states, Mi and Fl were always going to be in play. Hillary was just being a smart politician, Barry shouldn't have pulled his name out of Mi. That was his own inexperience. Hillary didn't try to run the table, she was just smart enough to court those delegates cause she knew the DNC was going to have to deal with them sooner or later.

She lost the primary but she didn't cheat or try to steal to win it. That doesn't matter to some, they just want to see what they want.





but that's the past and that doesn't move this country forward.

The states were stripped of their delegates by DNC rule that the primaries not be moved up. Explain to me how that makes the delegates in play. This is her and her supporters making shit up and gaming the system. She may have hoped that they would be in play but the rules stripped those delegates PERIOD. Let's deal with reality and the facts. And yes that shit is the past but it can't be ignored since her supporters are still trying to pull this bullshit even now.

I was not that impressed. I thought it was good but....not great. with Bill mouthing "I love you" and all that at the end..Oi! puhleaze! atleast she kept her voice down a bit...she was on a sceaming tour there for a while...it was like nails on a chalk board.
