I Started To Cry

I couldn't believe it. When Hillary was speaking and when the vote went to acclamation tears were running down my face. Watching MSNBC (much better than CNN) they I saw plenty of tears running down the faces of the delagates and then they started to interview them.

I am proud of my Party and stand with them in their acclamation to elect Barack Obama the 42nd President of our great Country.
