“If New York is in play then every state is in play”, DiNapoli said. There were no serious solutions to pressing problems – just the fanning of resentment, and blame, and anger, and hate. I was filled with faith in America.
Sanders, who has a loyal following here in Wisconsin, where he’s been a regular speaker at Fighting Bob Fest through the years, did the Democrats and the country a service by joining the race for the nomination.
“Nothing truly prepares you for the demands of the Oval Office”, Obama said. “But until you’ve sat at that desk, you don’t know what it’s like to manage a global crisis, or send young people to war”.
Clinton painted an intimate portrait of Hillary Clinton as a girlfriend, wife and mother.
Those people, he said, really can’t be reasoned with or wooed to Team Hillary.
Amid all the cheering and praise for Clinton, the best moment of the convention was perhaps the speech of the First Lady of the United States, Michelle Obama.
But on Tuesday night, as millions of voters watched and with the political stakes as high as they’ve ever been, the former president tried to make sense of it all and make the case for his wife, the newly minted Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.
