I remember where I was on election night when Bill Clinton was elected president.

What a relief it was to have the nightmare of 12 years of Republicans over.

The same thing when President Obama was elected.

Eight years of Bush over.

This has been a great convention.

The convention for Bill Clinton was great also.

Democrats throw great conventions.

We walked into the hotel playing drums, and everyone was so excited.

It was a great night.

I was so excited I ran to my drawer found an old black t shirt and wrote Clinton Gore with a big heart in glue and sprinkled it with Gold glitter!!! I wore it everywhere for days! One of the happiest days of my life!!!

crazy (carrying signs demanding that he be impeached). I spent part of the evening giving civics lessons to these clueless twits, and the rest of the evening being grateful I no longer had to wear my mourning band.
