57. I wasn't impressed, either, but I kept quiet yesterday out of respect for her supporters.
I thought that she could hardly bear to make herself say his name. She certainly showed no enthusiasm for her words of endorsement. She only got animated when she spoke about herself, and her place in history. I thought her bitterness was palpable.

That said, I'm glad that her speech was interpreted by many, and reported as, a resounding success. It's best for Obama and for our party for the headlines to be positive.

But, her speech yesterday does nothing to change the opinion I formed of her during this primary season: Hillary is all about Hillary, she'll do anything to promote herself, she won't admit a mistake, she can't be gracious in defeat, and she's already plotting to rise from the ashes. I see no indication that she plans to be a team player.
