Play from 0:00[0:00]" You had to be real diehard Clinton hater or arch conservative ideologue to be unimpressed by Hillary Clinton's endorsement of Barack Obama last night. Not only was it well written in every bit as emphatic about the need for her people to back Obama as he -- want. It was also passionately delivered a welcome contrast with some of the -- who paraded across that podium in the first two nights like former Virginia governor Mark Warner the keynote speaker. Who seem to be auditioning for the role lurch in a future remake of the Addams Family. Hillary Clinton delivered the partisan -- last night right off the bat when she said she hadn't quote spend the past 35 years in the trenches. Advocating for children campaigning for universal healthcare. Helping parents balance work and family and fighting for women's rights to see another Republican in the White House squander our promise and quote. That was a good long. Linking her partisan pitch with the issues that matter to people outside the convention hall. Clinton now has plausible deny ability. If Obama can't get it done she cannot be blamed and thus shunned by -- the party next time around. But the Obama campaign still has its work cut out for no question. In her speech Hillary promise that Obama would quote revitalize our economy. Defend the working people of America and meet global challenges of -- time. Democrats know how to do this cheese -- reference and of course the Clinton years in office. But as we now know. That administration did not know how to meet the global terror challenge. And if Obama does know how to revitalize our economy he's yet to explain it convincingly to a majority of voters. So buckle your seat -- It's going to be a close ruling rates all the way up to November 4."
