Bernie is a 25 year career politician and this is all political maneuverings.

You didn't read the article I posted about Bernie visiting 41 different countries one of them was Russia. Burlington's sister city Yaroslavl, Russia.

How do you function without having an ability to comprehend information?

They'll be unable to resist voting for Sanders after this.

No really, that's actually how it works. If it weren't, a lot of them would just see this for the transparent, cynical ploy that it is.

Sanders, but do I have to now?

Also, I am worried. The Bernie Bros say I am voting with my vagina, so it must be true. But how does one vote when one has to be in a berserker rage AND one has to vote with one's vagina? The vagina thing is going to be a tricky maneuver on its own. How do I combine that with the berserker rage?

This primary season is HARD!

I don't think the shift will be significant, but it might help drive some devoted Catholics to the polls.

I have known maybe 20 Catholics in my life. We didn't really talk about religion much either. Once I asked my cousin why she crossed herself when we passed a cemetery and that was the extent of our religious talk.
