In reply to the discussion: Hillary Wins The Only Standing Ovation From An Obama Crowd [View all]Sheepshank
(12,504 posts)7. Would love to read the speech and have it pointed out that which garnered the standing ovation.
Remember what a goor orator Obama is? And still he was bludgeoned by those who didn't like teleprompters, who didn't like he stopping to gather his thoughts with so may "ahhh" 's. It would take a virtual God to have it be universally accepted that someone gave a good, comfortable, flowing speech......it is inevitable that her speech will be slammed, not for it's content, but delivery. Just waiting.

It was at the end of the speech...so presumably the sum total of her comments.

Yes I know. The stories like the one in the OP are an extension of her campaign.
