although I was surprised to see so many secret service people in uniform near the entrance door, but all went smoothly and we had wonderful seats

Jane stood on the floor in the background and waved to those who made contact with her while Bernie connected with an enthusiastic crowd.

In edit, there was a fair mix of people, although I would say people were either younger or older and think the middle age group was not as well represented.

We need to hit the phones, streets and donate to give Bernie the best position possible in the next month.

Or what the feeling in the air is (please don't fart)?

I hope it's tied. If Bernsters and indies show up, we got it.
