The fact that she personally did not come off well didn't matter all that much. She's safe in her seat and won't be running for higher office. Her wild-speaking style doesn't negatively redound against Obama, and only moderately detracts from the content.
Anyway, as many have said, the speech was meant for the base, and for a particular few states: Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, maybe Iowa and even Missouri a little bit. In those states I think the white-working class swing voters would be, on average, a little bit forgiving of lack of smoothness and rough speaking styles - after all they are a very unsophisticated bunch themselves.
