At the top of her speech, the crowd surprised Clinton by singing “Happy Birthday”, prompting her to quip: “That last debate was like an early birthday present right?” The mail focuses instead on Clinton’s credibility, featuring a picture of her and former President Bill Clinton and the words, “No More of The Lying Clintons”.
