New to DU!
Well, I've been "lurking" since '08, but just now decided to actually join and be able to post and comment. Live in Richmond, VA and have a great liberal friend who sent me to DU back in 08. I'm more of a quiet person, which accounts for my SLOWNESS in actually joining, but am happy to be here. I have a multiple-political-party family, live in a purple state, and sometimes just need to virtually surround myself with sane people, so thank you all for being here! Learning tons and getting excited for November!
