McCain, Clinton and Obama Post Primary Speeches March 4 2008
I thought capturing the three candidates Post Texas/Rhode Island/Vermont/Ohio Primary Speeches might be good to listen to now and later. I've tried to use a site for the link where the posting won't fall off the ends of the earth tomorrow.
By the way, one fun note came from this morning's Morning Cup of Joe on MSNBC with Joe Scarborough. Joe had Christopher Hitchens on for commentary. Hitchens noted that in her speech the previous night, Hillary Clinton said she had "won" in Michigan and Florida. Hitchens pointed out those two states delegates don't count because the election was held out of turn from the wishes of the Democratic Party. Clinton's claim that she won, therefore, was false because the other candidates were not on the ballot and those two states were not in play.
What was most amazing to me was the speed with which MSNBC was able to cue up Clinton's speech to confirm Hitchens' allegation. They were as good, if not better, than instant replay on Monday Night Football.
At any rate, here are the links. First up is McCain.

Second is Senator Clinton. This is a link to a transcript. If you want the video, then go to CSPAN if you're reading this within the first few days of the posting.
