We are very pleased to bring you in haste a rather bootleg version of Howard Dean’s speech to Lib Dem conference in full, recorded by sitting in the audience with a tape recorder.

As these things often go, the effect of recording it in this way means sometimes the audience members are easier to pick out of the recording than the principle speaker. And I’m bringing this recording to you so quickly that I have not been able to listen all the way through yet.

Twitter came alive during the speech, with many people picking out key phrases and retweeting them. You can read them by following this link.
