"But she did extract her price.

 

The bill came due Tuesday. The crowd. The applause. The promise of a vote Wednesday, and a speech laced 17 times by some variation of the pronoun "I."

 

"You never gave up," Clinton told her delegates, a phrase that so perfectly fits her. "You never gave up. And together we made history." "

This is written by Ron Fournier, who considered joining McCain's campaign, and had a famous e-mail exchange with Karl Rove that clearly implied he was taking sides ("keep up the fight"). Apparently he decided to stay with the AP in the knowledge that his biased commentaries are more useful coming from the role of AP's chief online editor.

In a speech about yourself, mentioning yourself once every two minutes really isn't excessive. In contrast, I think Mark Warner used 17 variations of "I" in one sentence.

 

That was truly an incredible speech, far far far far far better than any she had given before. Some pundits are asking, how can she not be the Veep candidate with a specch like that? The answer is, because she gave that speech on August 26 and not on June 4th. Others are saying that she didn't talk about how wonderful Obama is, but that's the point. It was a great speech about how even if you don't think Obama is ready yet, or you don't agree with some point on policy, he is better than the alternative.

 

If that speech didn't do the trick, none will. Now all we have to worry about is Bill.
