Hillary's concession speech

Starting late, Hillary hasn't left her house yet. Was supposed to start five minutes ago...

I'll be watching it and commenting. More later.

Pre-concession thoughts: How much fodder will she provide today for GOP ads? After attacking Obama for months for his inexperience and other traits, she now has to support the Messiah. Her best bet would be to faint as if she were at one of Barack's rallies, nothing quotable left over and the media would approve...

12:24PM: Still waiting, talking heads running out of material.

12:26PM: Fox News says she'll leave her house at 12:30...

Chris Wallace suggests the lateness is intentional, Susan Estrich says no...

12:30 - Motorcade has left, I'm surprised they're not showing live video of their progress - otherwise, this entire event has the look and feel of a state funeral.

12:36 - Motorcade has arrived.

12:46 - Hillary on stage only 46 minutes late - wild applause from supporters - show time!

12:50 - "Well, this isn't exactly the party I planned...."

12:55 - She's looking at her notes way too much - my guess is that the late arrival was due to last minute tweaking of the speech.

She's been thanking all her supporters and has broken a record for victim stories in the process - c'mon, Hill, get on with it!

12:56 - Boos when she says to direct energy to Obama!

"I have served with him in the Senate for four years" - Um, no, you haven't.

She looked angry with the crowd when they booed....

12:58 - Calling for unity - applause not nearly as loud as before, fewer boos.

1:01 - Throwing a bone to Bill - "Weve only won 3 of last ten elections, the man who won two of those is here today"

1:05 - more boos!

1:06 - "Could a woman be CIC? I think we answered that one" Is she forgetting that this a concession speech?

1:10 - Mentioned "18 million" twice so far, equates a woman being elected President with being "blasted into space". How odd.

1:15 - More thanks to family and staff, crowd a lot happier with this part of speech.

Her delivery during the part where she supported Obama seemed wooden, and her irritation with the crowd showed in her expressions. The last few minutes were much more genuine. I'll be posting video when available.

Oddly, there was little mention of McCain, and the endorsement was much shorter than expected. Overall, not a very convincing effort.
