And it is thanks to Obama on Tuesday night, Sharpton and Edwards Wednesday night (although I've heard better Edwards speeches...I don't think he quite had his A-game on on Wedmesday night) and the finale...the homerun that was Kerry's speech on Thursday.
I have begun to feel something I haven't felt in so long...It seems, over the last 3 1/2 years, I have forgotten what it feels like to have HOPE!!
These great Democrats have given me something back...something I haven't had in a long time...they gave me hope, pride, joy...and it really feels good!
Additionally, though a minor speaker, I enjoyed Steve Broznak of New Jersey...he gave me hope in the sense that, he WAS a Republican up to a year and a half ago! My God, they AREN'T ALL brainwashed!! There's still hope for some of them!!
We can do it!! We can do better!! We WILL do better!! Kerry/Edwards, on to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue!! And, I was not really a Kerry supporter until last night. I supported him up till last night in the sense that I have long been an ABB. and then, I supported him somewhat, because of the seletion of Edwards for Veep. Having been an Edwards supporter at the beginning, Dean in the middle, and Edwards again at the end...I felt that at least having Edwards on the ticket...gave me something I could vote FOR...rather than just voting AGAINST BUSH.
Last night, John Kerry gave me something more I can vote FOR.
I will be proud, happy and joyous to call John Kerry MY President!!
Y'all Kerry supporters from way back...the ones I ravaged...on these boards and elsewhere...I am woman enough to look you all in the eyes right now, and say I was wrong about John Kerry. He DOES have what it takes to win back the White House!
