Hello! After attending several events last night that just ended this morning I am off to a slow start! I most definitely needed more oxygen!!!
Emotions are high today as the Roll Call vote nears. In some of the state delegation meetings Clinton supporters wanted to still cast their vote for her, instead of uniting and voting for Obama. She will hold a meeting early this afternoon to ask them to support Obama and unite the party. She mention in her speech yesterday that if you supported this race because of me then you were not in it for the right reasons, this isn’t about me but about the issues and what our party stands for. So it is in all hopes that this afternoon Clinton delegates take that to heart.
Tonight we heard from President Bill Clinton, who reminded us now is the time to unite. He shared that he was once too the underdog and came out victorious, so we must continue to fight and encourage others to understand what we are fighting for. He mentioned that he was very proud of Hillary and how she conducted her campaign. He was a natural on stage, and looked very much to be in his element.
Clinton was the warm, if you will, to Senator Joe Biden’s Vice Presidential nominee’s speech in which he shared the story of his first wife’s death and how he was there for his family. He stated that he struggled with the decision to quit, and that “Delaware could get another senator, but my boys can’t get another father.” By the time he finished most of the crowd had to wipe their eyes because of his emotional journey to this point. SURPRISE!!!! OBAMA IS HERE TO JOIN JOE!
Wednesday night’s Convention program will feature the voices of Americans who share Barack’s vision of making America stronger and safer.
Some other speakers on Wednesday Night:
Former President Bill Clinton, former Senator Tom Daschle, Governor Bill Richardson and Senators Joe Biden, John Kerry, and Jay Rockefeller, Chicago Mayor Richard Daily among others
Prime Time Speaker: Vice Presidential Nominee Senator Joe Biden
