The article discusses the speech given by U.S. Senator Hillary Clinton at the U.S. Democratic National Convention in Denver, Colorado. The author states that Clinton brought up all the right points, including the poor, those without healthcare, and the need to end the Iraq war. She made it clear she was backing U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama, and touched Afro-American women by quoting abolitionist Harriet Tubman. The article discusses whether Clinton supporters will back Obama.
