Wow. That was a blast from the past like we haven't seen in a while. Bill Clinton showed everyone how it's done - how to mix policy with common-sense language, passion and humanity. Have you ever seen a man more comfortable on a big stage? He would still be talking if he'd had his way. Keeping with Clintonian tradition, he went off script and way overtime, speaking for 48 minutes, or 34 minutes by Paul Ryan's calculation.
