Eschewing the "big crowd" strategy, (perhaps for clear contrast) talking to people in small arenas, in work spaces, even in a bowling alley--which was relentlessly made fun of. Rolling out her platform nice and easy, taking the high road, supporting other Democrats. Tireless. She's made a few mistakes, but damn it's been a thing of beauty to watch unfold.

I remember many comments about her being a "terrible campaigner"--in reference to 2008. None of that is in evidence here.
