2. This will be a real boost to their spirits. Biden isn't used to those kind of crowds.
I'm so happy for them and wish I could be there. I'd drive down, but decided I could see more on TV than in Springfield. My heart is with them, though.

One of my granddaughters emailed her sister that lives near me and suggested she go check out my house and make sure I wasn't dancing naked in the street! They knew I would be out-of-my-mind-happy over the choice.

3. That 10,000 was OUTSIDE of the square that was already full of thousands, I believe.
