Obama's Speech Tonight

His prepared remarks are out. He's claiming it.

According to the script, he'll say: "And because of what you said -- because you decided that change must come to Washington; because you believed that this year must be different than all the rest; because you chose to listen not to your doubts or your fears but to your greatest hopes and highest aspirations, tonight we mark the end of one historic journey with the beginning of another -- a journey that will bring a new and better day to America. Tonight, I can stand before you and say that I will be the Democratic nominee for President of the United States."

The relevant sections on Hillary are flattering and the portions about McCain, predictably, link him to Bush.
