Good point, that's a good focus for her.

She hasn't been a great public speaker so far as VP, but I don't know how different she'll be as a presidential candidate, I'm looking forward to it.

Looks like she still has that pained speaking look in Delaware likeshe's barely getting the words out, but idk, first stop or something on the trail, right?

I like the words she's saying, but I'm not exactly pumped up by her seeking lack of conviction.

I'll keep listening.

I think it's all those years lawyering. She's spent more time arguing cases in front of juries and judges than political speeches and it kinda shows.

Yea, I think you're right. It'll be interesting to see how she develops being in such a different role.

What I saw sounds so canned that I can't take anything she's saying seriously, but I've yet to watch the Milwaukee speech someone just recommended

For her speech in Milwaukee, I think she blew it out of the water. She got the crowd hyped.

Thank you!

You are right, that was a much better showing with much more enthusiasm and much more convincing appeal to progressives.

I look forward to hearing more.

I thought she looked like she was throwing up in her mouth in Delaware, but this really was a good speech.
