    "An uncommonly good speech"

    Really? Did we see the same speech? Maybe Traister really got lost in the crowd (isn't that a journalistic sin?) because the speech I saw was a series of old stale sound bites delivered in the most mechanical of tones. The CNN audio, which seemed to have some kind of metalic reverb under it, made her sound like a robot. And if we are going to canditates by speeches and parties, Obama seems to have that wrapped up.
