I voted for Hillary Clinton in the CT primary, which she won. But it was pragmatic rather than enthusiastic.
I agree with Bernie Sanders about almost everything he says, but it is unrealistic to me to imagine it happening.
But tonight, after hearing Trump's first speech from a tela-prompter (which was a speech delivered by a man who didn't want to do it) and hearing Hillary declare herself the first woman in history to be a nominee of a major party for President--I'm with her.
I'll get a bumper sticker and a tee shirt and give some money.
She was so gracious to Bernie and his supporters. She was so clear about how unfit Trump is to lead my nation. She was so inclusive and inviting to all folks. She was so appreciative of this historic moment.
I have dear friends who have what I call 'Hillary doubts'. I hope they heard or will hear that speech.
I feel as optimistic as I have in a year about the future.
And Obama is revving up to campaign for her. If only Bernie does as well.
This could be, not just historic, but a salvation for the future my 3 (soon to be 4) granddaughters will experience and live into.
After that speech and the one she gave last week, I'm on board.
I'm with her.....
