He's being smart. He knows we have to fight for every delegate and can't take anything for granted.

Or just being politically smart, and keeping his supporters on edge?

Why did Howard Dean finish a distant third in Iowa in 2004?
With 10 days to go, Howard Dean seemed to have it made: the endorsement of Senator Tom Harkin and the adoration of the liberal netroots base in Iowa and elsewhere. How did he blow it?

The truth is out there - on March 2.

That will not be the end.

Bernie is In It..."For the Long Haul." We should be glad to have him there fighting for "US."
