He kept MANY promises, despite efforts to block all of them. I am personally grateful for the promise of ObamaCARES -- a promise that has made my life and my son's drastically better.

Why would you be proud of being the Party that hurt Americans by putting their political agenda/ideology ahead of what is best for All Americans.

A record-braking 300 plus filibusters in congress by the republicans. That's what kept us from moving forward.

I hope she is good at keeping her face under control while lying. So far, I havenm't noticed a lot of talent over there.

The Republicans have wasted 4 years trying to block everything instead of working to help the country. They should be thrown out!

Stefani was in my class as a journalism student at UT-Austin. I told her she probably would be governor someday.

Cal: your comment might make some think "pack mentality" or lemming .. Why wouldn't you want to hear the other side at a convention?
