Clinton Speech in Missouri

Bill Clinton is currently speaking in Independence, Missouri. I'm not sure if we will see Hillary.

The first thing that jumps out at me is all the young people, mostly young women, who are standing behind the podium. The Clintons are continuing to court the youth vote.

Bill Clinton's message:

  • "He [Obama] won fair and square and we congratulate him for that but we now move on to February 5th where millions of voters get to vote."
  • Talked about the success of the Clinton Global Initiative, although not sure why. Shouldn't the focus be on the candidate
  • Reclaim the future for our young people
  • Most Americans are already in a recession
Sounds like he is going back to campaigning against Bush, which I really like and hope continues.

Both CNN and MSNBC have cut away from the speech, so that's all I have for now. I will try and post the link to this speech once it goes up on Youtube.

Hillary will be speaking at 9:30pm EST in Nashville. From Chris Bowers,
While Obama and Edwards are in SC tonight with supporters, Clinton is travelling to Tennessee tonight, to give the perception that she is focusing on February 5th instead of South Carolina.
