Hilary Clinton pulled off a tremendous speech at the Democratic National Convention today. With her husband Bill in the audience sat with Michelle Obama, Clinton said that, "McCain would squander the promise of a country that fulfils the dreams of its people... Barack Obama is my candidate and he must be our President".
She thanked her supporters and repeatedly spoke of women's rights. She asked her supporters "were you in it for me, or were you in it for the cancer sufferer, the single working mum, the marine?". She said that "after 8 years of George W. Bush people are hurting". Clinton suggested that Obama stood for the same things that she did, "there is not a moment to loose or vote to spare... this is why I ran for President and this is why I support Barack Obama".
The speech was pretty brilliant, you can see the (almost) line by line text of the speech at our Twitter page as we covered her speech live on Twitter.
