So many of the pundits were gushing about it, but I wasn't quite so sold. I thought essentially she did what she needed to do, and compared to where she came from during the primaries it was evidenc eof progress and semi-willingness to play ball. But that Rocky Balboa-style video intro was waaaaay over the top and too much. This is Obama's show, y'know? And the Convention is HIS HOUSE. I have to say I agree with you on Hillary’s speech.
