Did you watch? Wasn't she fantastic? I honestly enjoyed the heck out of almost every speech. The San Antonio mayor (I think he was the keynote speaker?) really rocked, and Duckworth kind of blew me away. I loved her line, "Isn't it time we stop being surprised that America's daughters can serve her just as well as her sons?"
