She is also the most powerful Italian American in this country's history. Words cannot express my delight.

And she's my local rep! And we actually got her elected to her first run, through Emily's List!

SO proud of my girl Nancy today....

Most definitely a day to remember, and pass along to our daughters, nieces, and granddaughters!

But it does mean the Demos will be shotgunning bills up to the prez over the next two weeks. This is a good thing.
