You could tell that was absolutely not staged, and she was absolutely in shock.

ok, yes I am.

That girl will remember that moment for the rest of her life.

And our candidates are human beings instead of whatever Trump (and his family) and Vance are....and so many others who identify with that party.

What the H is wrong with you, you monster!



I woke to the news of the microphone BJ and decided to give myself the grace of not actually watching the footage. This is my balm to the damage that even the hint of that mental image has done to my mind.

The contrast with the other side couldn't be more stark. And a young girl who will never, ever forget that moment.

I was a college freshman and all I could do was babble. And 48 years later I still remember that encounter. This young girl will indeed have a memory for a lifetime. I hope she gets an invitation to the inauguration.

Kamala is awesome! Come on, voters...do your thing!

I need a tissue. This 74 year old white guy has happy tears running down the cheeks of his face. The IS the wonderful kind hearted person I voted for and the person our country deserves to have for our President.
