I've been very discouraged and troubled, to the point my blood pressure is elevated. Yesterday gave me hope. We must press on for the good of our country.
Yesterday was a good sign but we still have a long way to go before we can breathe easy. I agree, it's not time to gloat but it did lift the spirits of a lot of us Democrats.

ReplyDeleteVirginia let me exhale. Lets keep the ball rolling.
