18. She looked great in white! And it's not an easy color to wear....

...And my thought, when I saw her in white was a bit more spiritual—the pope wears white, sikhs often wear white, baptismal garments are white....

She referred more to her religion in this speech, but in a way I didn't mind at all. Especially the quote we've seen on placards about the convention ("do all the good you can to all the people you can in all the ways you can&quot . Nice way to counter the selfish evangelicalism on the other side.
