    She’s got NJ, second biggest state. Leading NM, 3rd biggest state, leading in SD, and Bernie has ND, the only caucus state with slighting more voters than Vermont.

    Talking about our Girl.

    That’s so great, but where is she?
    Her campaign announced that our girl would speak at ten.

      That is what I did, cried my eyes, because she is so above the cheap politics of this country. I couldn’t do anything else, but get up and go for a walk, and breath fresh air.

      The percentages are wonderful in Jersey! We may be small, but we are mighty!

      The other States are looking good, too, with what I can see on CNN. I’m going to try and stay up for California, my adopted State for 33 years.

    Hillary Clinton’s Triumph, and Burden
    It appears Mrs. Clinton will be the first female presidential nominee of a major party, but she needs to convince Sanders followers that she won fairly.

    Read partway thru this NY Times editorial and quit in fury. Why waste time with this sexist tripe? Screw the NYT. Millions and millions of Americans vote for Hillary in happy and fervent denial of patriarchal delusions. Editors, we spit on your attempts to school Hillary. She’s won the nomination. Madame President. Get used to saying it!

    no URL because I refuse to link to that piece of shit.

    Just got myself fully under control. During Hillary’s speech I realized I was listening while quietly sobbing and crying like a baby. It felt so good to get that out after all these years. She was absolutely pitch perfect and I am so happy.

    Now it’ll cap a perfect night when she wins California. Please!

    BB, as I listened to Hillary’s speech, I couldn’t help but think of your message that Bernie is no longer relevant. Because after this night if he doesn’t realize that he is now irrelevant, and I mean he is totally irrelevant………….because she has smashed the glass ceiling, and we are moving with her, forward to the White House. She has the majority votes, and the will of the people is a sure thing.

    SD 88.8% Clinton 51.5% vs Sanders 48.5%, the state is voting east-west. All but one of the east counties voted Clinton and 2 are yet incomplete. About half of the Sanders voting west are yet to complete tallies. It’s gonna be tight.

    What I’m feeling is a sense of deep contentment and sanity. I’ve spent much of my life out of step, the odd ball, not seeing things as others would have me see them, Crayzee!
    And tonight it’s all gone. Tonight, the world makes sense to me. And I am so-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o happy!!!
