I suppose it's too much to ask, but

with all the crazy emotions flying everywhere, perhaps it's time to concede to either side, that we get the Congress and such that will be necessary to do anything past obstructionist conservatives? I really want Bernie to win, but if either he or Clinton get in, they'll need help. The first female President will mean nothing without that and while I think Bernie will drop names and public shame in a way Obama has yet to do, he'll struggle, too. Thoughts or more mud-slinging?

One of the earlier posts I put up about the race was that I hoped when Bernie gets the nomination, he'll start spending on ads asking people to vote for various Congressional seats, especially for those people who have already expressed an interest in working with him.
