Obviously, Sen. Hillary Clinton gave a terrific speech last night (Tuesday, August 26, 2008). She overshadowed everyone who came before her last night because of her passion and eloquence in support of Sen. Barack Obama.
But if you caught Michigan Gov. Jennifer Grandholm's turn on the stage, you had to be impressed, too.
Granholm conducted a mini-town hall on the issue of alternative energy. She exuded energy, personality, and expertise on the subject as she maneuvered between the video-recorded or e-mailed questions on the subject and the panel of experts assembled to address them. Compared to all the other governors and elected officials who spoke last night, Granholm seemed much more at ease and prepared, and able to communicate without being tied to a tele-prompter.
Obviously, alternative energy is an important issue to Granholm, who is trying to get the Republicans in the Michigan Senate to move on the issue.
But they would prefer to keep enriching Big Oil, borrowing money from China to buy oil from Saudi Arabia, as more than one speaker said last night.
