I have to admit, my eyes welled up when Hillary crescendoed just now with the Harriet Tubman reference. Seriously. Best. Hillary. Ever. Josh Marshall notes, correctly I think, that she simply could not have given a speech like that before the campaign. I’d go one step further: she couldn’t give a speech like that during the campaign either. But tonight she rose to it. Here’s the prepped text.
Bill’s still kindof a dick though, not just because he’s missing Obama’s big Thursday shebang…
No TV? I’m streaming on CSPAN.org…
Ooh, also, word is Kucinich’s speech got a standing O. Watch it.
