1. I Think It's Just A Matter Of Getting On In Years....
Her timing was off from her younger days and she got a bit flustered and lost at times in the speech, still, she's a hero and it was nice just to see her up there, IMO

2. agreed
not as much fire as I've seen in her in the past
and she had a hard time being pointed
maybe years, I don't know

I would love for her to have written a new poem for the occassion
It hought that was what she was going to put forth

remember the innauguration poem for Clinton?

5. I remember not liking it.
But I've never understood why she was considered a good poet.

3. I remember Clinton making a BIG DEAL when naming her poet laureate
Edited on Wed Jul-28-04 09:31 AM by patdem
and I am now left wondering not only WHO the poet laureate is, but do we even HAVE ONE?

BTW, she was off, but I love that woman!!!

Fixed spelling error
