Politico: "Pundits swoon over Bill Clinton":All I can say is this: If Democrats can make every undecided voter sit down and watch Bill Clinton’s speech, this thing is over.
Clinton’s ability to frame the arguments and the choice in a way that treats people as adults, explains the policy stakes accessibly and then downright inspires you, remains unmatched. This blend of Arkansas boy and Rhodes scholar turned political happy warrior is utterly unique. As we all know, he’s hardly perfect, but Clinton’s persistence, his seriousness and his sheer joy in the fight — the man’s passionate conviction that politics matters, that it’s a route to improve people’s lives and to elevate our collective destiny as a people — all this redeems him and makes him a treasure.
“I’ve been watching this former president of the United States going back to 1992 when I was CNN’s White House correspondent, and I have to tell you, this may be the best speech I have ever heard Bill Clinton deliver over all of these years, and I listened to so many of his speeches during his eight years as president,” CNN’s Wolf Blitzer said.
