Hillary is speaking from Nashville, Tennessee. Chelsea is with her. (Update: Video here.)

She talks about "Fighting for a new future for America."

She congratulates Obama and thanks the people of South Carolina. After that, she says now the eyes of the country turn to Tennessee and the Feb. 5 states...including Florida.

She says the crowd is bigger than they anticipated. She wants to continue the conversation she started a year ago. She wants the election to be about the next generation and the young people.

Her voice drops, she's really hoarse. She's speaking very conversationally, CNN cuts her off, saying she's into her "stump speech" and says you can finish watching her on cnn's website.

    Reminds me of the dog act that had to follow the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show.

    campus, historically black Tennessee State.

    A CNN reporter there just held up a bumper sticker, "African Americans for Hillary."

    Kudos to her campaign for scheduling this tonight -- brilliant counterprogramming for conceding SC as bygones but talking about the future.

    Just when you thought that the punditry had achieved maximum insanity:

    Carl Bernstein declared this the worst night of Hillary Clinton's life.

    He's quite mad, you know ... barking mad.
