I got a chance to watch Hillary Clinton speech tonight and I have to say it moved me and was an amazing speech. She made a great point that the United states needs to work on it’s problems and work on how we are seen around the world. I also love how she really pushed the unity of the democratic party. I am an independent, but because I have leaned this year and in the past more toward the democratic candidates i have seen what is going on. I believe the speech has done it’s job and will bring the party closer together.

I still think the best part of the speech was when she asked people to think, did they support her or did they support the ideals that she and Obama believe in. I think too many people supported her as a women and not what she believed in and that is why they will not vote for Obama. If they agree with McCain instead fine, vote for him, but don’t complain about what he does if he is elected.

Overall the speech gave me goosebumps as it did other people from what I saw on Twitter. I do have to say she does know how to speak and get the attention of a room full of people. I am looking forward to the next two days, hopefully I can stay awake, last night I ended up going to sleep.

I was reading last night how women are writing into the democratic committee saying that both Michigan and Florida should be seated and Clinton should get all of the votes. I disagree with this as in Michigan we only had one democratic choice and many people including myself did not vote because of that fact alone. We felt we had no actual choice.

What I am wondering with all of this is do the women who are so supportive of Hillary know what she actually wants to do as president or have they just decided she’s female and I love her! Keep in mind there is nothing wrong with your choice I’m just wondering. This thought came into my head last night when I read this article because a women stated that she would rather support McCain then Obama. The thing is when you look at both Democratic candidates they really do have most of the same goals. Trust me I have done a lot of research into this, both before January, when I still wasn’t sure who to vote for, and when they talked about having a re vote. I judge based on what they want to do and how the candidate presents themselves. I just feel that Hillary has kind of cracked under pressure and because of that resulted to tactics that just did not make me feel she would make a good president. Just my opinion.
