cost how many jobs?? How many jobs have been shipped overseas or to Mexico/Canada? How did the prison system grow under him? How about the deregulation of Wall Street - has that kept us "prosperous"? DADT? DOMA? Death penalty? War on drugs?? All of this got worse under him.

He was no friend to true progressives.

I got motivated not just by Hillary's victory but also by the attitude of some of Bernie's supporters here on DU who begrudge Hillary for having money. Guess what ? Some of us are democrats and yet also lucky enough to have had a successful life. That does not make us less democrats.

The kennedy's werent exactly poor and yet did a lot to advance the progressive cause. I maxed out my donations for the primary.

If she is the nominee I will give her more. If Bernie somehow gets the nomination he will get my money as well. No matter what, either of them is light years better than the gop clowns.

I donated a few bucks last month and a few bucks today. Probably donate again and in the GE no matter who the dems nominate.

Now the real question is, do I put my bumper sticker on the outside or tape it on the inside. I live in a red area and do a lot of work at my church. But I got two bumper stickers so I will go big and put it on the outside. If it gets defamed then I got a spare!

Now I have to go get my solar spotlights out for the yard sign.

But I did smack my head as I should have bought some cruz Halloween masks. He is so creepy and I could have used them for the Halloween decorations. I love it when it is prez election year, I have the best stuff out and yes make lots of fun at repugs and lots of dem signs in the yard. Normally I give full size candy so the kids love me. Maybe I will give beer or whiskey shots to the parents. Might be able to convince some to vote dem.
