Just a couple years off
Going through old New Yorkers this evening, found this, from August 2004 (about the Democratic convention):Barack Obama, the keynote speaker (Kenyan economist's son, Harvard Law graduate, candidate for Senate, war opponent), was by all accounts the biggest success story in Boston, even if his speech wasn't aired live on the networks. By the time he delivered his rousing line, toward the end, about "the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him," people on the floor and in the press stands had fixed on the "Hillary must be pissed" analysis-alternately known as "Obama 2012."
