演讲稿

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you, so much. Thank you, all. Thank you very, very much. Well, this isn't exactly the party I'd planned, but I sure like the company.
谢谢你们，谢谢你们。非常感谢你们。感谢你们所有的人。非常非常感谢大家。准确地说，这并不是我计划中的活动，但肯定地说，我喜欢大家的陪伴。
And I want to start today by saying how grateful I am to all of you, to everyone who poured your hearts and your hopes into this campaign, who drove for miles and lined the streets waving homemade signs, who scrimped and saved to raise money, who knocked on doors and made calls, who talked, sometimes argued with your friends and neighbors, who e-mailed and contributed online, who invested so much in our common enterprise, to the moms and dads who came to our events, who lifted their little girls and little boys on their shoulders and whispered in their ears, "See, you can be anything you want to be."
我想以表达对你们所有人的感谢来开始—所有倾注了你们的心血和希望的人、不远万里开车赶来站在街道两旁挥舞自制的标语的人、靠精打细算地节省来筹集资金的人、敲门拜访和致电的人、因谈论我而有时与朋友或邻居争论的人、给我发过电子邮件和上网支持我的人、给我们共同的事业投资巨款的人、来到选举现场把女儿或儿子举在肩头并对他们轻声耳语“瞧，只要你想，你可以做成任何事”的妈妈爸爸们。

2006年6月7日，美国民主党参议员希拉里·克林顿微笑着走入华盛顿国家建筑博物馆，发表告别漫长竞选之旅的演说。演说中，希拉里宣布停止竞选，并明确表示支持已获民主党总统候选人资格的巴拉克·奥巴马，呼吁人们团结在奥巴马身后。希拉里的演说内容可圈可点，赢得阵阵掌声，虽然选举失败，但离开得仍然如同一个胜者。
