So I'm experience feeling of 'the shoes is on the other foot', but I'm OK with it

Eight years ago, my candidate won the nomination and I remember being so incredibly impressed by Hillary Clinton's graciousness.

It was, and will always be, uniquely her moment.

I will be so glad to get past this roll call, so that we can officially get to work. Well, ok, maybe we can wait until Friday. But then we have to get to work!!

1. I'm having the same feeling, but I was on the Clinton side in '08.

We need to be kind to each other. This isn't easy.

And yes, let's get to work!

It's silly to waste energy on snark and divisiveness.

However, my Bernie bumper sticker might have to accompany the Clinton/Kaine one, for a while, anyway. Baby steps.....

4. I was driving around for days with a magnetic "Hillary for Prison" bumper sticker on my car.

There's a prankster at work who thinks he's funny. I didn't even notice it until someone mentioned it to me.

Nothing wrong with a Bernie bumper sticker. He's a good, good man who had an incredibly powerful impact that's here to stay.

I caught sight of it, just seconds before we headed out into a parade.
