My husband an I are making another modest donation to Bernie tonight.

Win or lose, whatever he decides to do, we want him to have the money.

If the people of Ohio, Illinois, N. Carolina, Florida and Missouri like the corrupt money game, let's help Bernie play it well.

Donate to Bernie tonight.

Bernie should win - besides we also have work to do in getting congressmen elected. We will make primaries tough for the Dem establishment candidates in the future.

He is great.

I think he should be the DNC chair.

I'm in California of course.

The good news today is that our attorney general, Kamala Harris will be running for the Feinstein seat in the Senate. That gives me some hope.
