Clinton’s Speech
I’m pretty sure I’m just reiterating everyone on the news and all those silly professionals about, but I really liked Clinton’s speech. I’ve been a tentative Obama supporter from the start (I say tentative because I’m always nervous when there’s such a strong fan base, especially when many of those around me can’t articulate why they support him other than he’s “cool”), but I think Clinton redeemed herself.
She didn’t have any other choice to support Obama, really, but it was still a great speech. She took her only option and ran with it–she created a lot of tag lines for him (No way No how No McCain) and she aimed her supporters at him by giving her reasons. That was the smartest part, I think. She told people why they should support Obama.
It was smart, eloquent, and her only option.
