You have a gift for making a point in posts that consist of you empathizing with someone else (e.g., “Terrorism and 1st Graders” and “I Don’t Know His Name”). It makes for particularly compelling reading.

“We the people…” I believe it is written somewhere. Our lives matter, our voices should impact our government. You speak a language I understand and it resonates with me, makes me consider things and think things over in a way that relates to me. Cheers!

Congrats! Well deserved. Political is personal which is just one of the reasons I’ve been coming back here since I found you a year ago.

Because you make the political personal I love you. Not that I don't adore the political-political blogs, but the added dose of personal weaved in makes it feel more real and inspirational. .-= Summer´s last blog ..You Know What’s Pro-Life? Protecting Life. =-.

I love women who speak their truth clearly, firmly but tempered with warmth, grace and above all humor. You succeed admirably on all counts. I love you on twitter, you say so much in under 140 characters and you also seriously crack me up so you got my vote! .-= Jean Parks´s last blog ..It's good to be Queen and other assorted ramblings =-.

And this is why I love to read your blog. I couldn't agree more. Political is personal. Congrats! .-= Tina´s last blog ..The Momma Jinx =-.

of course you are nominated.
as it should be.
you deserve to be and ought to win.
what makes you stand out so vibrantly amidst all the others: you speak your mind for that sake only.
you’re passionate and provoking and tell it like it is in your heart…without ostracizing those with a different view. you’re a role model for women to speak their hearts and minds. and a role model for every one to participate.
love that this reconition has come your way. love the photo choice too…we should draw in the sand, play at the beach, be the roles we’re privileged to hold and voice our minds…you surely nudge me on.:) hugs and so happy for you.

I, too, voted for you before I saw this – a few days ago.

Love your blog. Love that the personal IS political. As I said to a friend the other year, we have to Personalize the Minority. Cuz how else can we convince the unknowing that [minority group] is awesome? ;p

If only more people did that. These aren’t abstract ideas – they’re policies that impact people’s daily lives.

Congrats on the nod!
