What line/concept/image stood out the most from the speech yesterday?
Advertisements [?]
I was asked this today by a friend who was doing an informal poll in her office, interesting results.
So let's see...who heard a 'one liner' that made them sit up and take notice?

Who remembers a striking image or story or idea that grabbed them?

Yesterday was so powerful in so many ways. When you have THAT MANY people united in a common thought and feeling of love andhope and unity, how can good things not happen? I myself really bawled when he finished his speech and huggd his family... all I could say was, "Free, we are all free... I know what that feels like now" (It hadn't dawned on me until that moment that we had been held hostage by the previous administration for SO LONG) But that's not the image that sticks with me the most.

The part of the SPEECH was the story about Valley Forge...
and the words Hope & Virtue will carry US through the storms still to come...

AND YOU....?
