(68,203 posts)there might be somebody in the wings, waiting to go onstage and deliver. Dems are presently in good shape for a Presidential run, while on the rocks when it comes to the House and Senate.
Since I am old, I can think back to unexpected twists and turns in the path to the presidency. I just read something about Gary Hart, which nobody saw coming. And the Florida stalemate resulting in the Supreme Court deciding the presidency. And, of course, Obama's upset over Hillary was another unexpected breakthrough.
The first woman president is far, far overdue for the U.S.A. Other countries all over the world have been electing women in top spots for years. Sometimes, what is to be, will be (but maybe with a different candidate...hence my hedging on considering Warren and only Warren even tho I just love her and will support her if she runs).
This morning sitting at my computer I am optimistic. But we'll see how this plays out...
