"Strength and wisdom are not opposing values" BC
Best statement of the night. Bill is still the master of the podium.

3. He was magnificent
It was a brilliant speech that has many of the pundits speechless.

It's funny watching the Faux bozos trying to come to grips with the speech. They're all trying to figure out whether it was "bashing" or not. Clearly it was, but it was so perfectly stated that it didn't feel like it. Even according to the Faux analysts.

Bill Clinton is the greatest political orator of this generation. It isn't even close.

4. Agreed, but don't forget this gem
"We don't need a divided America...they do"

Lovely sentiment and absolutely spot-on

9. Not a slogan, but truer words were never spoken ...
"We live in an interdependent world in which we can’t kill, jail, or occupy all our potential adversaries, so we have to both fight terror and build a world with more partners and fewer terrorists."
