The three speeches that were given last night were geared more towards NH and the days ahead then about the results of the Iowa caucus. No duh. I know.
Of the three speeches given, which of them is the most consistent with the pre-Iowa message and which, if any, are reacting to the results instead of building off them.
I fully concur with Edwards main point, Iowa voted for change via Edwards or Obama.
Edwards will be bending over backwards to convince NH and the rest of America that he is the better candidate to carry the mantle of change. To be honest, I don't agree, but Edwards is a firm #2 in my book. ____________________________________________________________________________________________
I was completely put off by how Hillary stacked all her "cronies" behind her. Does Bill and Albright need the face time? Then she desperately tried to twist her defeat into a "victory for the party." (wink, wink. She thinks she is the party or wants you to believe that)
This speech is a shotgun appeal that covers every twist and turn her campaign has taken, trying to be everything to everyone. By doing this, she shows that she is desperate to find a handle on "her message." Trying to find what sticks is not leadership. ____________________________________________________________________________________________
Barack's speech is elevated, using broad strokes. He knows that Americans are going "meta" in 2008. Not that policy and points are not of great importance, but here Obama is conveying the "vision" of the movement.
When everyone was listening, Barack went back to HOPE.
