Thank God the gloves have finally come off… Great quotes from some upstanding leaders and citizens. Let’s keep the momentum going!

Those were all great. One other from Barack: the sequel is always worse.

On pbs Jonathan capehart couldn’t speak after. He was too teary eyed. Michelle rocked it

"STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE KERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"

It's been a class act all the way. We've been watching on CSPAN - no commentators, no commercials. And don't forget the alliterative “Will a vindictive vile villain violate voters’ vision?” from the “bleach-blonde bad-built butch-body” up and coming Jasmine Crockett.

I was the other one yelling "Steeeeeve Kerrrrrrrrr!" LOL! Did you hear me over the cyberspace? I, too, am a U.S. History nerd, a Civics fanatic, and a rabid American ... "Born In The USA in Brooklyn, NY ... of Canadian parents. And, I am a 'Senior Cat Lady for Harris!" No brag, just fact! NIKE had it right: "Just DO it!"

Thank you for assembling the Greatest Hits So Far! I'm guessing there will be more to come tonight and tomorrow night. Now we have to keep the momentum going until November through work, work, and more work. It really helps to have JOY on our side.

Kerr has been my hero since his U of A days. I have a basketball signed by him and all his championship team! He's a real stand-up guy. That "night, night" was soooo funny.

I’m hoping someday Joe Biden will find himself happy that he stepped aside. To help that happen, we must do everything in our individual powers to put Kamala and Tim in the White House.

FITZ has shared some 'gems' from the first two evenings of the DEMS Convention. But, "you hadda BE there!" (I never moved from my chair in front of the TV.) I have spent the last two nights transitioning from cheering to bawling and back, as each speaker 'knocked it out of the park!' Michelle? OMG! Words fail me, but they sure didn't fail HER! Nor did words fail her husband, former Pres. Obama. "Yes, We Can!" BTW: Fasten seat belts! Two nights left! Don't dare miss any of it!

That's just how I and my husband have been. Michelle! That warrior outfit. Her speech will go down in history.

Thank you for the awesome summary of the DNC's 'gotcha' moments! We must stop Trump from being elected in 2024!

"I have never seen anything like this in my 40-years... that has ever come close to being as inspiring, joyful or electrifying...."

Even though I heard much of the same words live, reading them together as you collected gave me goose bumps. Thank you! This is truly an exciting and exceptional time!
