But mostly a proud Barack Obama supporter

A five minute standing ovation.

Hillary at her best
Hillary at her best

Paraphrased, obviously:

My sisterhood of the traveling pantsuits.

Speaking of our loss- Stephanie Tubbs-Jones

Work ahead of us. promote clean energy economy, health care system-single payer, world class education system, Equality, make government an institution for the public good.

These are the reasons I ran for president and these are the reasons I support Barack Obama for president.

We need leaders who can tap into that special blend of talent and optimism.

We need to elect Barack Obama who understands that the change must begin from the bottom up, not the top down. As I recall, we did this before with President Clinton and the Democrats and we will do it again with President Obama and the Democrats

I can’t wait to watch President Obama sign into law a health care plan that covers all Americans

Don’t need four more years of the last 8 years

It seems appropriate that Bush and McCain are going to be together in the Twin Cities-these days it’s awfully hard to tell them apart.

88 years ago today 19th amendment, women’s right to vote.

Keep going-quoting Harriet Tubman, “If you see the dogs-keep going.” Americans don’t give up.

But before we keep going we’ve got to elect Barack Obama and get going.

There you have it. She was on fire. I don’t think there’s any doubt that she moved her supporters behind Barack. Bill was fun to watch. He was visibly moved and proud.

I was moved.

Now it will be interesting watching some media types say how divided everyone still is.
