Hillary Clinton gave a speech the likes of which I have rarely heard. Passion, purpose, heartfelt championing of the underdog...it was all there. She IS Presidential material. Anyone else would have caved under the pressure to do the impossible: please everyone.
To me, she embodies the true spirit of the Democrats (at least those Democrats who don't bow and scrape to the false god of "centrist" values.) She took this speech to the hoop. Vote for Obama I will, absolutely. But I will never relinquish a burning hope that one day Hillary Clinton will assume her rightful place in the White House.
