11:07 pm: I’m convinced. Go Barack Obama!

11:04 pm: In America you always keep going! We have to get going by electing Barack Obama the next President of the United States.

11:02 pm: Hillary shows respect for McCain but says we can’t afford four more years of last eight years. John McCain and George Bush will be in the Twin Cities - and jokes that the two of them are hard to tell apart. Another great line.

10:43 pm: This has to be so hard for Hillary Clinton.
