>>>>Did you watch Bill Clinton's speech? You could sense him being a little torn but he has thrown his full measure into it. He has never failed to deliver a big speech and he didn't fail this time. Along with Ronald Reagan, and maybe Barack Obama, he is the most gifted politician of our time. Even to those who don't like him, he is never less than a charming rogue.

>>>>For sure he was conflicted. The anger of 2008 can't have abated completely. His wife was the presumptive nominee and expected historic President for quite a while before this skinny guy with the funny name (Obama's description of himself) knocked all the plates onto the floor. So yeah, Bill was irritated, and not without reason. To his credit he lined up for his party last night. The lion in winter. It's quite amazing that just yesterday he was the boy wonder.

>>>I saw most of Clinton's speech. I thought he knocked it out of the park.

>>I heard that his speech was very good. Do you know if there is a way to see it for those that didn't watch it last night?

>It was a good one even for Bill Clinton. Many things can be said about Clinton, and many things have been, but no one can say he doesn't give a rousing speech. I thought President Obama's was just fine last night, he hit his marks, but Clinton's was even better. It was a great convention for the Democrats.

>I thought Obama's best message, sometimes expressed subtly, sometimes not, was how important it is to get out and vote in November. The loss of enthusiasm for Obama over his first term has been widely reported. He directly addressed those who have said they are just going to sit this one out that they should go to the polls and make a choice. This really is a stark choice.
