Today is the Day I Finally Get to Vote for Hillary Clinton for President

To be sure, I voted for her in 2008-though I was never part of PUMA. But I am much more hopeful than I was in 2008 that she will be the Democratic nominee. For one thing, even Bernie's team is doing a John Kasich: playing for a brokered convention.

He was also out claiming that if he gets 40 percent of the vote, that's a win. I guess, it depends on how you define victory. If winning the primary is the goal, then this fails. But if spin to get your supporters to keep sending in money, then I guess 'winning' means anything you want it to be.

Just remember, Hillary lovers, no matter what the media tells you, many of us love Hillary Clinton and are ecstatic to vote for her, like America Ferrera.

Or Joan Walsh and the NY Dems she's been hanging with lately. Only in NY, do you get such a great line:

"At a rally at Co-op City in the Bronx last week, Assemblyman Michael Benedetto riled up the crowd for Clinton by noting, “Only one of them is a Democrat,” to cheers. Bronx City Councilman Andy King kept up the theme. “We don’t want any BS here,” (also, only in New York have I heard people mock Sanders by his initials.) “It’s good to be Democrats, and it’s good to be for Hillary.” Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. derided the Sanders supporters who rallied in the Bronx earlier this month carrying “The Bronx is berning” signs—a tone deaf play on the infamous 1978 World Series, when the New York Yankees played against a backdrop of arson and urban despair. It is not a punch line to Bronx residents. “The Bronx will not feel the Bern” on Tuesday, he predicted. “In fact, the Bronx hasn’t been burning for decades.”

Nope, we New Yorkers, aren't BSers. If you really want to see someone excited over Hillary's history making candidacy, see Kareem Abdul-Jabbar:

Indeed, a choice between 'hell and reason.' She is truly the thinking Democrat's candidate, the 'perfect mix of pragmatism and idealism.'

Who says, pragmatism can't be poetic?

Just remember to vote-don't assume she doesn't need your vote to win.

Though she is confident:

Clinton: "I am hoping to do really well tomorrow, I am hoping to wrap up the democratic nomination." Adds not taking anything for granted."

So take nothing for granted.

Still, she was confident enough to break her rule and eat in front of the press-ice cream. Yes, someone actually tried to ask her about the calories.
Sure, this is a post gender campaign.
