Read the Comments on The Huffington Post About Kaine's Speech

All the way at the bottom of this article:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hillary-clinton-tim-kaine_us_5793aff3e4b02d5d5ed1d5c9?rdaemi

Amazing speech by TIm Kaine.......he nailed it and really contrasted the diferences between Trump/Pence's fear & hate with Hillary/Kaine's courage and positive approach to the future of America. BRAVO sir......well done.



This speech by Tim Kaine must be seen by everybody. Now, this is the America we know that he so eloquently spoke about. This KC (Kaine-Clinton) lineup is the best team for America to move ahead.



This was a surprisingly fantastic debut...and I was a doubter.



I'm ready. Let's go. I was doubtful and he was not my first choice, but man I'm all in now. Great atmosphere. Great message(s). So much needed after seeing the negativity of the other side. #clintonkaine2016


I admit I wasn't excited about Kaine, but then again I wasn't initially thrilled when Joe Biden was selected as Obama's running mate either. Ok, I'm over my initial and admittedly substantial disappointment. Bring on the convention!



WOW!! What an impressive guy with an incredible background. He sure didnt seem "boring" to me. Great wife too. Well done Hillary.

There are quite a few Sanders backers on the Huffington Post but their calls of "Bernie or Bust" have grown silent. If there is a large community of Sanders voters that are still holdouts, I have no clue where they are congregating these days. I know about sites like Jack Pine Radicals or whatever they are called but those places are just small pockets of resistance. Party unity is rapidly approaching, Trump better kiss his ass goodbye!

It is just the tonic we needed after last week to bring us together.
Regardless where we started in January, most of us are in it, to win it as
we go forward into the fall.

I didn't know how bad until we finally got to Saturday and things seem bright and optimistic, with a good, strong team to lead us in making this an even better country.

Bring on the convention!!

Thanks. I have spent the day trying to talk to Hillary haters on one side who and Trump lovers on the other. I was feeling pretty strung out and low and this really helps.
