just said: l cant believe Senators in this room are having pages bring them water at just the right temperature - with ice or not - but wont vote to protect against a law that keeps ppl from receiving water on a voting line.

(16,938 posts)TRUTH - not the BS from Faux Spews, and we need to see MORE Democrats doing it - we need to grow the 'team' - not just 1 or 2 stepping up to the mic - but bunches of them. We've got WONDERFUL people serving - outstanding DEMOCRATS that deserve and NEED to be seen - this is a BIG team, a GREAT team (well, you know I'm not including Manchin and Sinema, right? ) - and we need to let everybody know it!

(54,437 posts)I met her and Amy Klobuchar at an Emilys List gathering in Washington in 2006 (met Obama there for the first time, too). I was pretty sure all three of them would go far (was I right or was I right?). One of my daughters was interning at EL while in college in DC, and she invited me to come, since I was already a member of Emilys List.
My two Senators from Texas are awful, but in 2018, we flipped TX-32 blue and have so far kept it that way.
