DENVER (AP) -- Former President Clinton has pledged to cheering Democratic National Convention delegates to strongly support Barack Obama's campaign for the White House.

Clinton told the convention Wednesday night that Obama "has a remarkable ability to inspire people." The former president's speech had been eagerly awaited by Democrats in view of his own past criticism of Obama and his ambivalence about the Illinois senator.

Clinton said that Obama had "hit one out of the ballpark" when he chose Sen. Joseph Biden to run with him.

He noted that Hillary Rodham Clinton had told the convention Tuesday that she would do everything possible to get Obama elected. Then, Clinton said: "That makes two of us."

Bill was lying through his teeth. Just like he did when stating he did NOT have an affair with Monica Lewinsky. I believe the democrats have suddenly developed a keen sense of morality. John Edwards was banned from making a speech at the Democratic National Convention for having an affair and lying about it. So they found someone of equal character, Bill Clinton, to speak in his place.
