Excerpt from rally
We are truly building a uniting coalition. I am truly honored to have the support of the entire Alabama congressional delegation and from Senator Clinton. I've always been very gracious to her and her family. When President Clinton appointed me attorney he saw that I am a strong advocate for the disadvantaged in our society.
