Bill Clinton did as expected: nice speech, but overlong. You mentioned the 1988 DNC when he went on so long many delegates were squirming in their seats. It almost cost him the eventual nomination to run in '92. Back in NY, the political class then remembered him from his1988 filibuster and thought of him as another backwoods mush mouth undeserving of consideration. Were it not for a youthful and charming Hillary touring the hustings as his alter ego, his nomination would not have happened. When we have a chance to talk, I will tell you about my personal experience with Hillary at that time.
