When we're watching Hillary -- right hand in the air and Bill holding the Bible -- be sworn in as the first woman President.

I hope her first act is to appoint the youngest, most liberal candidate she can find to replace Scalia on the SCOTUS. Isn't that what the Repugs said they were waiting for? To hear the people speak?

As her second act, I want her to call a special session of Congress and flip them off.

GOTV!

I'm excited about the first woman president being inaugurated, assuming she wins, but I'm still going to be heartbroken.
