One day before too long, we'll know

which Democratic candidate will be our nominee. I look forward so much to that day. We'll all be able to work together to keep a Democrat in the White House. That will be a great day on DU. Maybe we can even regain control of the Senate, too.

I'm counting the days until we get there.

The work we have to do is monumental. In the last couple of years they redrew some district lines in my area and it's horrifying as to what republicans did. We need passion locally and nationally all over the country.

And while I agree we need passion, the candidate of the rich can't inspire it. We can't win in the fall with a candidate who own draws crowds of a few hundred millionaires.

It will be soon. We just have to be patient for a little longer. We can do that, I'm sure.

It won't be long, now. Then, we can all work together to make common cause. I think that will be a wonderful day. Don't you?

a future date. I did not specify a date. I just said soon. When you are 70 years old, the days pass quickly. June is soon. Tomorrow is soon. It's all coming soon.

's Yet...it will probably be a "longer while" than you originally thought it would.

Always enjoy your posts, MM. Bless your Heart.

We have to keep the Presidency, take back the Senate and have the best Supreme Court possible to protect our civil rights!

Fight to make it a clean sweep, people: The Executive, Legislative and Judicial Branches!!!
