Hillary Clinton on Unity

August 27, 2008

Last night Senator Hillary Clinton surprised me.  I expected her to make a speech backing Barack Obama.  I expected her to call for unity at the Democratic Convention.  I expected her to do the right thing by urging her followers to support Senator Obama even though many of them still believe she is the best candidate.  What I didn’t expect is that she would exceed my expectations. 

Not only did Hillary blast unity onto the stage last night with, by far, the best speech I’ve ever heard her deliver but tonight she called for the roll call to be suspended and have the delegates immediately nominate Obama.  And that’s exactly what happened.  Thank you Hillary.

BTW - if you didn’t hear Hillary’s speech, take a load off and listen to her here:

    Karen,
    I couldn’t agree more. The Clinton’s have completely resolved the unity issue and, in so doing, given Obama a genuine boost among their supporters. Yes we can!!!

    Celeste–I met Obama a few years back. He autographed his book for me. And yes our next president is definitely fine!
