I agree Peggy!

We've got a long way to go. It's still very tight and plenty of votes are still coming in.

I do love that we were down by 30 points a few weeks ago...and look at this.

I wonder if what they are saying is that they don't want Sanders to "dismantle Obamacare" as Hillary and Chelsea freely charge.

Filthy.

also, and I could be wrong here, but it seems that Obama did a better of making his administration look like the population of the US. That's surely something worth continuing as well.

But he's going to differ with Obama on the banks, and attempt to "usurp" (I'm kidding) Obamacare with BernieCare.

I think he'll differ on Mid-East policy but only so much. And similarly with energy policy...more of the good stuff.

What other areas?
