As we stand on the precipice of history, I can remember when this room

[LaydeeBug]

was the only place I felt safe.

I can remember when the folks *here* were guiding each other through all the crap they threw at her. (and at us, frankly)

I want you all to know how much it meant to me, just to have *this* place at *this* time in our nation's journey.

Thank you!!

1. Indeed... but perspective aids-- it was not dissimilar in 2007-8 with Obama v HRC

Once the primaries are finally settled, we have a mass exodus of hard core "NEVER" supporters and things calm down.

Plus, could there EVER be a more uniting force (for DEMS) than DJT?

I so look forward to what simply MUST be an HRC triumph and to have this election behind us. That said, boy are the a-holes in Congress going to be ginned up. We must not vacate the fight afterwards.

2. Yes, I remember the same. We have come a long way, I expect some tears of joy again

This year. It is the second time we have broken the ceiling, two presidents in a row. I am happy to be a part of the Hillary and Barrack group.

5. Yup this was the only semi-safe area to post on DU

for a long, long time.

Although I got banned by pinebaggers from posts in here too LOL

9. Yep. It was what kept me sane.

I felt that I lived in an upside-down world at times, and thank God for this group and the mods who kept it going!

Cheers!

10. I love this group!

We supported each other and we make history together tomorrow.

Peace.
