Quintessential political steel
The dust has settled and the Hillary speech has been , though contains as well an interesting take on one of the layers of this multi-layer Shakespeare-on-steroids drama - the relationship between Bill (pouting "I love you" in the audience) and her.
As for the political effect of the speech, - and might have brought some of her fans back on to the reservation.
Surely it did - though it also reminded everyone of her stature which - 2012 anyone? - was no bad thing for her.
I remember saying in the early primaries that she was failing because she had no ready trade mark, no brand. How far she has come in those months from no-brand to tough-brand.
She is the quintessential steely politician now - nothing that has happened to her since New Hampshire (including losing!) has done her anything but good.
