EMILY’s List held a “Women Vote!” gala reception this afternoon, which I was forced to attend through a wi-fi hook-up. Nancy Pelosi, Michelle Obama, and Hillary Clinton all took the stage. Clinton went first in a speech remarkably similar in tone to the address she gave yesterday. She began by thanking the organization and the crowd. In talking about her run for office, she had a moment reminiscent of New Hampshire, saying, “Remember, it’s not just about politics. It’s really personal. Because when you first start running, you have no idea where the path will lead.” Clinton then said that it was important for women to vote: “We’re going to be turning out more voters and more contributors. . . . Your work is putting more cracks in that glass ceiling. . . . And thanks to you, one day it will completely shatter.”
