I was supposed to be at a cool watch party but instead my family is home sick with a cold and this thread is giving me so much joy. Please keep posting until my kid falls asleep and I can turn on the TV myself.
This is a watch party in Vancouver, BC tonight. I really wish I could have gone, but it's a looong drive. This election season has made me want to get involved with Democrats Abroad.
"The republican party is no longer conservative. it has switched it's allegiance from the principles that gave it purpose to a man whos only purpose is to himself. Donald trump is a weak man pretending to be strong. he is a small man pretending to be big. he is a faithless man pretending to be ritchious. hes a perpetrator who can't stop playing the victim."
Sorry, no formatting, was trying to get it as fast as possible so I could get back to Live.

Having seen all of the other potential VP candidates speak makes me so glad Walz was picked. He’s just so perfect and authentic. Everyone else is great, but they’re clearly politicians.

Finally able to turn the TV on!
I’m watching her talk and I’m just…amazed. How does she seem so calm and fresh? The majority of the country is literally counting on her to be perfect and she seems so calm. I’d have cracked under the pressure that very first day. So much pressure on her—the future of democracy, the psychic pain of 2016, the potential responsibility of being the first woman president—and she carries it with such grace and confidence.
