Especially when your chief rival is selling poetry?“I applaud his incredible ability to make a speech that really leaves people inspired,” Clinton said of Obama after her speech. “My point is that when the cameras disappear and you’re there in the Oval Office having to make tough decisions, I believe I am better prepared and ready to lead our country.”Both campaigns have now reduced their themes to single word.
