Hillary Sounded Convincing Today

At a rally in Boca Raton, Florida, Hillary came out strong, telling her supporters that if they supported her, they have more in common with Obama than McCain.

I know she's spoken these words before but she was more forceful today. She asked her supporters to join her in supporting Obama and taking back America.

I want so much to believe Hillary. Heck, if she was Obama's pick for vice president, I wouldn't throw a hissy fit. But why the mixed messages from Hillary and her people? Why can't she manage her brother, meeting with McCain operatives on the sly? Why did Bill have to be such a sore loser? Why hasn't she denounced these PUMAs outright? What about setting her delegates straight, leaders like Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania who are going to nominate Hillary at the convention? Why so late with the support? Is she finally coming around?
