Tweety is at least good for something

He's interviewing Trump right now and pretty much making him look like a fool.

Crowds come early for Sanders at PAC

Look at the line! Started forming at 6 AM! This is a great omen for Tuesday!

Lillian Hanzek, 18, is taking her first election seriously.

She planned ahead by asking for work off, and came prepared with a box of donuts as she waited in line Tuesday morning for the Bernie Sanders town hall at the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center in Appleton. She was there by 6:30 a.m. with her sister, Carrie.

Knowing it was spring break for many schools, they arrived early — they know Sanders is popular with millennials. In her a government class at Neenah High School, when students had to make political ads, most were for Sanders, she said.

"It's neat because it's so close to us right now," Carrie said. She said they wanted to go to Sanders' Madison rally on Saturday, but couldn't make it from Neenah.

I was never very good at math

Apparently Hillary supporters are all mathematicians. So, how's the math looking now?

I love the people on DU. So many characters, so many nice folk.

We are a stubborn bunch, no doubt - and we are always RIGHT! And we have "facts" to back us up with.
You probably know me as a Bernie supporter, but I am not a fanatic, in the sense that I won't have hard feelings in the long run for perceived insults, and all the crap that goes with a contentious primary.

I've always said that when all is said and done, we let bygones be bygones. I still REALLY do think Bernie has a legitimate path to the nomination. But regardless, I owe him for all the work he's put in and all the education he's provided. Win or lose, the cat's now out of the bag. We can no longer go backwards or keep the status quo. It will take time, but the more people that demand change, the faster the changes will occur.

If Mrs. Clinton so happens to attain her goal, I will wish her well, but will keep the heat on.

We need a recount of the "early voting" ballots in Arizona.

Bernie won 60-40 with the votes counted yesterday (only 30,000 out of a 4M person country voted - many were disenfranchised). But the early voter ballots are the ones I am really suspect of. Who did the counting of those ballots? Was it bi-partisan? Supposedly the reason they could call for Hillary after 1% of the vote was counted was due to the early ballots - which no one can see or verify.

I DEMAND A RECOUNT!!

OK. Listen up, and LISTEN goooooood.... I feel a bit Verklempt!

I will follow Bernie until the the nominee is confirmed. That is still a ways down the pike. I love Bernie.

But, in the unlikely event that he does not earn the nomination, I will, at a bare minimum, vote for Hillary. For all her faults, She's not a megalomaniac like Der Führer Drumpf.

Because of the contentious, and stressful atmosphere for all of us on DU during this primary season, when it's finally been decided, I think both sides will have to get together and admit their own mistakes; apologies all around and get back together for the General.

Bernie people: I love them; some of the best people I've ever met. And I will still fight for Bernie, because he is what we need desperately at this point in history.

Each one of us has something to contribute here on DU: It's sad that people can get so rude in defense of their opinions. I'm also guilty as charged.

I think we all need to take a deep breath, and think about our children, and our children's children.

Peace, love. This is my apology to all those I've offended, and those that I will undoubtedly offend in the near future. You know, as most of us (except the RW trolls) - we ultimately mean well.

I survived. I'm going to bed now, without a single hidden post!

I was afraid I might get TS'd tonight, but I'll be here to fight another day.

Good night fellow Berners!
