This is just my opinion and my prediction- I think that Hillary
will give a good speech and Bill will give a great speech. I think almost everyone will be very impressed by them and what they say. As much as the Clintons don't like to lose, they are very sensitive to their public image and their legacy. I think in particular Bill is known for getting down and then staging amazing come backs. I remember when his fiestiness inspired the Democratic party, when they were down, prior to the 2006 elections. I am looking for a very great speech from Bill, one that unites the party and fires everyone up.

2. They both know this is their last chance at relevance.
Now and forever.

3. I predict...
...that if Bill Clinton gives a great speech, as least one pundit will bash him for trying to outshine Obama.

If Bill Clinton gives a mediocre speech, then at least one pundit will bash him for not doing enough to help Obama.

4. That sounds like a pretty good predction,
since the MSM has been doing everything in their power to try and bring the Dems down.

5. I Hope They Both Attack McCain...
Rather than spending too much time congratulating themselves on coming in a close second in the primaries.

7. I am 1000% for Obama
but I hate the Clinton bashing on DU.

Bill Clinton won 2 elections in a very Republican era climate. He was a good President who held his thumb in the dike to do what he could to help average people. He didn't forget where he came from. He was smart and genial in an era dominated by greedy and mean people (Newt Gingrich for example).

10. I agree.
I look forward to Bill's speech in particular, I have missed his eloquence at the last 8 State of the Union addresses. I think Hillary will give an admirable speech as well, one that will put a lot of the fearmongering and conspiracy talk aside. After all, no more Penn, no more Wolfson, this is Senator Clinton speaking for herself, without the handlers.

11. Hillary Smack-down
I wish that Hillary would target McCain's infidelity and
deception throughout his life. McCain has "USED"
dozens of women throughout his life and once they were no
longer helpful to his career, he dumped them. He is a
womanizer of the highest order. All of the women who are
Hillary supporters, who threaten to vote for MCcain, should be
clearly reminded of McCain's track record to use and dump
women.

14. Let's put it this way- they have opportunity to make that happen...
That is, if Bill Clinton can keep himself from talking about JUST hims accomplishments. Let's hope that's the case.
