OMFG!! All those you you got to meet! Tizzy Ent and Brooklyn Dad were people I followed. I saw you on TV!! And yes. The guy was right. You looked like the most beautiful woman in the world.

Hope that this experience brought you happiness, peace and a final confirmation that you are on the right track.

Keep at it woman. You’re doing the Lords work.

I am happy that you got to do this, and the fact that Chair Harrison himself got you a credential bodes well for your career.

My own convention experience was in 2016, which was what the kids call a shitshow. In addition to the tension between the different factions of the party, including the weird playing out of a feud between Dolores Huerta and the woman who played her in a movie, we were herded around like cattle. The highlight for me was a late-night session with (now Governor) Katie Hobbs where we sat at a hotel bar and waxed indignant about the then-state of Arizona's Democrats. Of course, I could have done this if I had stayed home.

I am not saying this to be negative, but to show that we have come far, in a good way, from those days. We might even have learned a lesson or two. Watching from the couch, it was clear to this old hack that we are finally putting forward some new, colorful and appealing leadership and it feels like we are winning. I think this is what they mean when they say that we are bringing joy back.

Thank you for sharing all this.

When I learned that Maga loser Richard Hanania wrote dergagory comments about Ella Enhoffs tatoo's..... (BitchBarbie Coulter attacking Gus Waltz).......once again speechless.

I so much like the picture of Tara's tatoos in the back of Sound of Settling. As the future VP says..."Mind your own damb buisness"............so..all you Maga's...get lost...please pick up your JD sperm sample cups and circle jerk yourselves off
