We really ought to congratulate her on breaking through the glass ceiling, tell her our hopes and dreams for what can be accomplished now.

2. I'm definitely onboard. I love Nancy.
Not sure how much I'll be able to do--inane amount of HW--but I'd love to at least sign the thing.

:thumbsup:

4. I really hope everyone isn't jinxing this
I really want that first woman Speaker of the House and I remember the slew of threads not more than 2 weeks ago with calls to elect someone else Speaker if we won. I guess I still have this deep-seated belief deep down that misogyny will rear it's ugly head and something will happen to derail it all. *crosses fingers and hopes for the best*

When she wins...then I'll breathe a huge sigh of relief and send her congratulations.
