By the way, did she say anything - ANYTHING - about John Kerry in that speech?? If so, I missed it.

The question was "Is the belief that the spouse of politicians are of particular poltical relevance a post-Hillary phenomenon," not whether there was precedent for the length of THK's speech.
As for what she said, how would I know? I got better things to do than watch the convention (I did Tivo Obama, though -- he is really a hell of a speaker).
