Noam Scheiber / The Stump:
That Outrageous, Delusional Clinton Speech  —  I'm sure plenty of people had strong reactions to that speech Hillary just gave.  For my money, the two most outragerous sentiments expressed were (and this is from my rough contemporaneous notes):  —  1.)  “What does Hillary want? ...

Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
The Clintons Threaten  —  The speech tonight was a remarkable one for a candidate who has lost the nomination, though not remarkable for a Clinton.  It was an assertion that she had won the nomination and a refusal to concede anything to her opponent.  Classless, graceless, shameless, relentless.
