The concession and victory speeches: Hillary

With Bill, Chelsea, and Madeline Albright in the background, Hillary focused on what unites Democrats, and winning the general election for Democrats and "changing the country."

On the list of important issues, Iraq was number one. "I'm optimistic about the country" was a line in the middle that turned again to Iraq before other issues.

Big applause line: "I am so ready for the rest of this campaign, and I am so ready to lead." The delivery was excellent, after having stumbled in her cadence a little.

After touting her 32 years of experience, Hillary is pushing the Iraq issue. She's thinking Obama is a Gary Hart. I'm inclined to agree. Now Obama's in the hot seat, kind of like Huckabee has been for the last four weeks. We'll see how he handles the heat.

Her facial expressions were right on target. It was the expression of a winner, not a loser. Impressive.
