No kidding.

What a bummer!

We're with you, Rep. Lewis. Sending you good and healing vibes of all kinds. I dearly hope you can stick around for awhile longer, sir, because we sure do need you.

Sanders is a unity candidate? Quite the opposite.

He's as far from it as the mind can imagine.

Aw, damn.

Just - DAMN.

Yeah. We need a healer.

We’re going to need a lot of healing after being so battered and abused by trump & comp. he strikes me as having the kind of compassion and kindness that a good, loving dad would have. He’s weathered some dreadful storms. That’s what builds character, and a sense of genuine empathy. He has a heart and you can tell.

I think that’s what we all need at this point, if we’re going to recover from trump.

Well okay then.

That clinches it for me. I’ve been leaning toward Joe Biden for awhile, since being orphaned by Jay Inslee’s withdrawal.

I feel like making it official after reading this latest message of his.

I do reserve the right to change my mind but for now, in all practicality, I think he’s the best bet.

Indeed!

Oh for Pete's Sake!

Jesus would not have had stuff to begin with. He was not “Our Lord of the Excess Baggage.” He embraced poverty and simplicity, concerned more with the spirit than the material world.

We left a mark.

Hallelujah!

He’ll go down in the history books with that mark of shame by his name. And NOTHING he can do will change it, modify it, erase it, distract from it, or otherwise make it go away.

It’s FOREVER, you fucking bastard.

I thought she was a great candidate. Maybe the best and best-qualified ever.

I still think so.

And she got the most votes.

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
