Reading Twitter #filibuster is inspiring

I called and was linked to Sen. McCain's number. His voicemail was full which I hope was a good sign!

These Senators. So sincere, intelligent, knowledgeable. They have each revealed their hearts and the depth of their commitment to us and to the idea of America.

I'm moved and inspired. And SO establishment.

how ironic that a certain senator isn't there helping.. not doing his job.

Hillary would be there if she were still a Senator.
