I agree with her 100%.

Do you recall the story behind that photograph?

Lone Chatelaine said...

No, I don't know anything about that. I was just going on face value with what her sign says.

The picture is from a Washington Post article about votes in, I believe, Michigan, where due to Democratic party rules, the votes to select a nominee weren't included. There's a Hillary Clinton speech that refers to that event, here. http://tinyurl.com/48vsyt

Oh yeah, I remember now. I'd never seen the picture before, but I do remember that Florida and Michigan having a crisis about whether their primaries would count or not. The did break primary rules, but I felt their votes should count.

Gosh, that seems so long ago now.

It was a simpler time... I thought (still do, though I suppose 'hoped' would be better) that the sign was hand-made by her, not mass-produced and fake, like at the conventions.

I was just taken by the combination of determination and resignation in the woman's face.
