negative impact, but I think they missed an opportunity for a positive impact," DiSipio
said. "The spouse's speech is supposed to be a humanizing moment for the candidates
– and if anyone needs that, Donald Trump needs that. Whatever she said was lost in
the fact that there was bad speechwriting for her."
