I think that she did well in terms of speech delivery - diction, eye contact, body language, etc. She did not make many of the mistakes that novice speakers make.

However, the substance of her speech as well as those of Juliani and Romney were weak. They were filled with innuendos, sarcasm, half-truths and outright lies. Wait until Politifact.com (http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/) and FactCheck.org (http://www.factcheck.org/) get a hold of those speeches! The partisanship was clearly evident.

They could not keep Barack Obama's name out of their mouths! Every other sentence was about Obama. If they fired up their base, they also fired up Obama's base; last night immediately after her speech, I sat down and sent another donation to Barack Obama....
