2. Believe it or not I kissed the ground and hopped around cheering in a red neighborhood.

3. I was very happy.

I recall celebrating with a nice Boston cream pie.

4. Yep

I knocked on doors and phone banked for him. Gathered with my group to watch and it was exciting.

Now....sadly, Drumpf and the rise of the alt right sprang from that, White panic on parade.

The crazy far right are like cockroaches, hard to vanquish them for good.

I was out celebrating and watching the election for my 40.
