11. At first I thought...12 year old girls DON'T vote

but I appreciate the support and applaud her efforts. Then today I heard a guest on MSNBC say that Taylor is pretty sharp and knew what she was doing. Apparently those girls have moms who spend big bucks to send their kids to shows and the moms go with them and with other moms. Those moms all add up and many may turn Dem due to this.

Of course a lot can happen in 4 weeks...look at Oct 2016 if you need a reminder. I would like to forget that election but I know we can never underestimate the corrupt evil of the GOP.

17. She started her career about 10+ years ago, she is only 29

Many of her earliest fans are in their 20s and 30s, and some of us are even in our late 40s and early 50s.

18. Wow, that means tons of people may register to vote due to her.

Another guest said, "Now all the Dems need is Dolly Parton to do the same and the Dems will have a real chance of winning".

I wonder how many fans Kanye has who registered after his recent SNL speech?

12. I hope a good chunk of them are in Tennessee

13. The registration deadline in many states was today.

There's always a big bump in registrations at this time.

15. She's proven herself to be a far better business person that the orange menace.

Say what you want about her songs: She was running her own companies in her mid 20's, and signing lots of paychecks.

16. The Fact That Dimmest-Bulb Blackburn Is Even Close Is Discouraging!

[Blue_true]

19. That could turn a large number of elections.

If they follow up by voting.

20. Taylor, make sure they vote Dem, speak out some more.

21. Who would have guessed several years ago that Kanye

Would be disliked here and Taylor lauded. That will kill Kanye once he sees what’s going on.

22. My daughter is a big fan of T. Swift and went to her concert in Philly. Amazing show for anyone

especially at her young age. Even though I didn’t recognize many of her songs, the production was stunning. A true professional and an example for many young women to follow. And remember she fought back when a DJ got to handy. Good for her!

23. Smack dab on the cusp between Millenials and iGens! 🛴

Well done. Now SHOW up on Election Day!!!🎈🎈🎈😉
