This Girl Cannot Believe She’s Actually Meeting Hillary Clinton

?w=1680



Ten-year-old Colorado resident Macy Friday got to briefly rub elbows Hillary Clinton this week, and from the looks of it, this meeting was not a let-down.

Clinton was in Denver to support Sen. Mark Udall’s bid for re-election. We’re sure Udall appreciated that Hillary stopped by, but clearly, nobody enjoyed it more than Friday.

I wasn't into politics enough back in 2004 to understand what Primaries were all about, but I was on DU at that time and while I didn't have a preference for a Candidate, I was very impressed with Dean. I'm so glad you got to meet him.

Hillary is coming through GA to campaign with Michelle Nunn soon, I'm hoping to be able to catch a glimpse of her then! Even if I don't get to see her, I'm just so happy that she's coming here to support Michelle, and hopefully help us get her elected!

We were in a crowd and I was holding my kid as Hillary was being rushed away from the event and about to get in an SUV. She paused, turned around, and made a bee-line over to us, bent over to get eye level with my daughter and shook her hand.

You might add the photo credit to the OP--he deserves it.
