All eyes on Hillary as she readies landmark speechPHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania: Hillary Clinton faces the test of a lifetime Thursday as she accepts the Democratic White House nomination in a defining speech aimed at prying voters away from Donald Trump — and convincing America to entrust her with the world’s biggest job. But Clinton faces a major trust deficit among a US public that has followed every Clintonian turn of the past quarter century. “Donald Trump is making a lot of really big promises, and some people find those attractive,” said Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook. “It’s the most personal moment on the campaign, talking to a big audience about what she wants to do for the future,” Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta said on a Facebook live stream. Rocked by an email scandal that refuses to die, she is now about as unpopular with voters as her Republican rival.
