The speech itself was insistent and made its point over and over and over. "Think of the future", "this isn't about me", "the issues are what matters", "every vote matters", "no one should wait on the sidelines", "can't afford 4 more years", "I'll campaign as hard as I can for O", etc etc etc. Not word one of it was contrary. I guess you can ignore the speech entirely if you like, but I can't, because it happened.

I've read about this too, though when you mention it to doubters and conservatives all you get is "that's spin, wishful thinking, blah blah." Basic fact - many young people don't have landlines at all.
