I may be around your age, TC, but before I read this and after watching every second of the roll out of the team I was remembering politics of my youth being fun.

I didn’t understand that much at the time but all us kids loved chanting “I like Ike” and kids can tell a good guy when they see one. I was a full fledged political junkie during the Kennedy years not just because I was an 18 year old Irish Catholic in Philadelphia ( We hold the best rallies.) but because it was fun to be politically active. Tonight I felt that rush again and the momentum to continue to send texts and write postcards and letters and get out the vote and the voters. Never let me forgot the joy of Josh Shapiro’s impassioned speech and the winning and fun spirit of our Democratic team. And please let Jimmy Carter live long enough to caste his vote for Kamala and Tim. It would be the icing on the cake of a special political season.
