Post your favorite headline announcing Hillary's historic moment

(I didn't see a thread, so I thought I'd start one.)

I love the word play. She was the first lady to accomplish the feat, and was also First Lady to Bill Clinton.

Hillary Clinton will clinch the nomination on the same date (June 7) that she conceded 8 years ago!

The thought just crossed my mind. That's pretty cool.

Great, new graphic I found on Twitter

Sanders now has 46 superdelegates?

A couple weeks ago, he was down to 39.

I would think he'd be losing some, not gaining more, especially after his despicable behavior (and that of his supporters).

Anyone remember the 1992 U.S. men's Olympic basketball 'Dream Team'?

That roster included such NBA heavyweights as Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, Scottie Pippen, Patrick Ewing, Karl Malone, and Magic Johnson. The other nations had no chance.

I think the Dems will put them (and the Repubs) to shame in the general, with our own version of the 'Dream Team': Hillary & Bill Clinton, Barack & Michelle Obama, Elizabeth Warren, Joe Biden, and (we can only hope) Bernie Sanders. But even without Sanders, we have a winning coalition.

"Only one major figure in the Dem party was willing to be photographed with me: Hillary Clinton."

Today, Gavin Newsom posted the following:

In 2004, after I ordered the city clerk to give same-sex couples marriage licenses, I quickly became a pariah in the Democratic Party. I was accused of endangering Sen. Kerry's campaign for president, my speech at the national convention was cancelled, and most hurtful, major democratic candidates and elected officials -- some of whom were my friends -- refused to be photographed with me or even be in the same room with me. I was being demonized by the left and the right. Only one major figure in the Dem party was willing to be photographed with me: Hillary Clinton. In 2004, we did an event together down at Delancey Street in San Francisco. I'll never forget that moment -- that when I was being attacked for my position on same sex marriage and what we did in San Francisco, she was willing to stand with me in public when no one else was. ‪#?ImWithHer‬
