(2,340 posts)Glad to see that I'm not crazy. I was wondering what was going on - and she spoke it with almost with no affect. To me it indicates that she doesn't really mean what she's saying. She sounded like a second grader reciting something she needed to memorize for school.

(18,775 posts)If only she meant it, I'd actually support her.
Also noteworthy was her trying for small donations at the end of her speech.

(82 posts)Yep, Hillary was new to NY then, her little station wagon, an impeached husband, and with both hands tied behind her back she kicked not one, but two seasoned Republicans in the rear and took the Senate seat. She did better than ol Abe did. lol

(1,890 posts)it's a winning speech but no amount of stealing it from Bernie will make it HERS.

The same now as then:

(3,089 posts)Hillary has always spoken out about all the issues she covered in that speech. She talked about reining in corporate bad actors and rewarding the good ones. Not broad brushing all groups, especially when some may be needed to invest in the programs you might want to implement. Great speech. Right touch of support for empathy.
She doesn't need to "copy" from Bernie...one could say except for the Wall Street meme, Bernie is copying from her. As in adding in concern for minorities almost as an after thought. He is getting better at it tho.

(74 posts)We all know she will revert to hard-right and dump all the voters who thought she was the Clinton of the 90s.
Except the Clinton of the '90s fucked up shit that led to Chimp and the fuckups, that I will never EVER forgive Clinton for.
