When Bill Clinton was running for president. I'll never forget this one. He was running in New Hampshire. He was not doing well.

I'm going to keep talking about what I would do as president, the experience that I bring, the temperament and judgment that led President Barack Obama to ask me to be secretary of state after we ran a really hard primary against each other.
