Hillary Clinton gave shoutouts to March Madness and the Wright brothers, used an extended basketball metaphor and told a Democratic joke.
At a speech at Wake Tech, she said she was glad to be in North Carolina during the NCAA tournament and praised the Wright brothers for their work on the airplane.
She also compared the country's need for a turnaround to a beat-the-buzzer basketball game.
"There's 20 seconds left, there's 10 seconds left and the team that wins is the one that reaches down deep," she said.
She got big applause for an old Democratic joke, however.
"Running for office is like driving a car," she said. "If you want to go forward, you put it in D. If you want to go backward, you put it in R."
